What our students say
Amy Garcia
Real Estate BSc Honours
The University of Westminster was the best university in London that provided a course in Real Estate. I like how realistic our modules are in relation to the type of work we will do in the industry once we graduate, it gives us the ability to easily transfer skills and good preparation for the workplace. Our lecturers are very supportive and help us with any questions/problems related to the lecture or coursework.

Building Surveying BSc
In gaining my degree at Westminster, I have progressed from a job to a profession. I can honestly say I greatly enjoyed my time there, as the lecturers cared for the students, and pushed us to our strengths. The knowledge I have gained from Westminster has enabled me not only to enjoy my job as a building control surveyor, but it has also assisted me to gain promotion from trainee to assistant surveyor.
