Diploma in Building: An Overview

"What am I studying?"

That is a common question asked to me. Actually, I am now studying Diploma in Building at the MARA University of Technology (UiTM) Perak. 

"What you do in your programme?"That is the other common question asked. Here, I would like to share an overview about Diploma in Building. 

Diploma in Building, is a three-year programme, which includes a six-month practical training (during semester 5).  This programme aimed to produce semi-professionals with sound knowledge in construction technology, and contruction management. It is a programme under Faculty of Architecture, Planning and Surveying.

This programme is authorized by the Chartered Institute of Building UK at Level 1, and is distinguished by the Public Services Department of Malaysia.

With this programme, the graduates have the occasion to be employed in public sector as technical assistants, and in private sector as site supervisors, construction programme planners/schedulers, technical teachers and assistant quantity surveyors for building and infrastructure work.

Yours faithfully,
