During the third and fourth year of study you may choose a module to direct or supplement your own study path. You may also choose to take part in a foreign exchange or work on company projects.
Building services engineering is required in both new build and renovation projects. Tasks in building maintenance and usage are increasingly significant. After graduation you may find work within
•building services design
•contract work as an expert or supervisor
•system commissioning and maintenance
•device construction and sales
•legislative supervision and inspection
•real estate management.
As you gain more experience, you can progress in your career into supervision, management or consultancy.
