未來緊缺人才——英國大學(xué)資產(chǎn)評估專業(yè)

Learn Property Appraisal and Management with MSc

英國教育源遠(yuǎn)流長，英式學(xué)習(xí)可以追溯到800年前。迄今為止，英式教育依然是世界上最為成功的國家之一，它幾乎促進(jìn)了全球大部分國家教育體制的建立。本期我們就一起來了解英國教學(xué)質(zhì)量總分最高的學(xué)府——謝菲爾德哈勒姆大學(xué)的資產(chǎn)評估碩士課程。通過它的課程設(shè)置特點(diǎn)、師資情況、畢業(yè)生和企業(yè)評價(jià)，可以管窺到英國大學(xué)的專業(yè)詳情。本期英文稿由英國專業(yè)老師直接提供，可謂原汁原味解讀英國大學(xué)專業(yè)。

Introduction概況

隨著經(jīng)濟(jì)的迅速發(fā)展，資產(chǎn)評估活動已經(jīng)成為經(jīng)濟(jì)生活中不可缺少的元素。中國的資產(chǎn)評估在80年代末、90年代初才出現(xiàn)萌芽，短短的時(shí)間內(nèi)迅速崛起，成為一個(gè)蓬勃發(fā)展的新興行業(yè)。而在市場經(jīng)濟(jì)較為發(fā)達(dá)的國家，資產(chǎn)評估業(yè)已具有百年以上的發(fā)展歷史，不僅具有相當(dāng)?shù)囊?guī)模和影響，而且積累了豐富經(jīng)驗(yàn)。由于中國資本市場還不夠發(fā)達(dá)，對資產(chǎn)評估的認(rèn)識也還存在一些誤區(qū)。因此，具備國際化視野和專業(yè)水準(zhǔn)的資產(chǎn)評估人才在國內(nèi)尤為緊缺。

英國于1868年就成立了評估專業(yè)團(tuán)體。謝菲爾德哈勒姆大學(xué)的資產(chǎn)評估專業(yè)（MSc Property Appraisal and Management）致力于培養(yǎng)特許測量師，在40多年前就被英國皇家特許測量師協(xié)會認(rèn)證，在業(yè)內(nèi)建立起很好的聲譽(yù)，畢業(yè)生的就業(yè)率近乎100%。

√Would you be interested in a conversion course which will equip you for a professional career

in China or abroad?

√Do you want the experience of studying in England and mixing with English students?

Look no further!

The MSc Property Appraisal and Management (International) is a one-year fast-track conversion course specifically designed for Chinese students and which leads to an English professional qualification in property management and development. The course is accredited by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors， an English professional body recognised all over the world for quality and integrity. There are many international surveying firms based in China who recognise and value the RICS qualification and are looking for RICS qualified Chinese property managers with UK experience who can work in the world of property management， valuation and development. We have links with such global property management firms as DTZ Debenham Tie Leung， Colliers International， CBRE， Jones Lang La Salle， Cushman Wakefield， Knight Frank and Savills.

The course has grown out of MSc Property Appraisal (UK) - a course with a high reputation in the UK and an excellent employment record for its graduates who obtain employment with major surveying companies as well as smaller independent firms， local government and the civil service. The course is also well respected by surveyors' firms in Shanghai where our English students undertake a development project in collaboration with international surveying companies with offices there. We have recruited Chinese students in the past who are now working with major international property companies (DTZ， Cushman Wakefield) so we decided to set up a special version of the course catering to the Chinese market and the special needs of Chinese students.We have also set up equivalent courses in Poland and the Czech Republic catering to eastern European students.

Sheffield Hallam University has a large surveying school which has been running RICS accredited courses for over 40 years. The surveying school achieved a high score from QAA and includes professors who have written key textbooks for surveying students and who are active in research and continuing professional development. The University is among the highest-ranking UK Universities in respect of the quality of education and support for international students. There is an International Student Support Team which provides pre-arrival advice and information， an online mentoring scheme and an orientation programme. There is also a University English Scheme which offers a range of English classes at all levels and provides the English module within PAM International which is specifically tailored to the needs of international surveying students.

Entry Requirements入學(xué)要求

﹡A good first degree in any discipline.

﹡6.5 IELTS (we provide a summer course for those not quite up to the 6.5 standard).

﹡Work experience in a property company is an advantage but not essential. We recommend that prospective students try to find a short internment with a surveying firm with RICS members (such as the ones listed above).

Graduate Profile - The Personal View

Richard Pickering is an Assistant Surveyor with Cushman Wakefield in their London Office.He graduated with an MSc Property Appraisal and Management course in 2005， which he completed on a full-time basis.

\"Having already done quite an academic course for my undergraduate degree， I wanted to study in a more vocational environment， which would better prepare me for the job ahead.\"

\"I was particularly interested in the way the Sheffield Hallam course was assessed， with a large emphasis on teamwork and practical-based projects， and of course， the international trip to Shanghai also played a small part in the decision process!\"

\"The fact that the number of places on the MSc is restricted means that you get to know all of your peer group quickly， a process that was helped by the induction course in the Peak District. Because the group bonds so quickly， the social side of being back at university becomes a lot of fun.\"

\"The professional development aspect of the course is also outstanding. You receive a lot of help preparing CVs and learning interview techniques. When it comes to applying for jobs， you really are a step ahead of the competition. The fact that everyone was employed by the end of the year， many in top consultancies， bears testimony to this. In my mind the MSc is the most effective way of getting a job in surveying – it's a lot quicker than an undergraduate degree， and employers look very favourably on it.\"

\"In addition to the technical knowledge that I acquired over the course of the year， the MSc encourages you to think laterally and creatively. In an increasingly competitive sector， this kind of mind-set can give you the edge. I do genuinely find myself addressing issues in a different way now， looking to create opportunities out of problems.\"

Employer

\"At DTZ we seek to attract and select high calibre graduates for our offices across the UK， Europe， and China. In the last few years we have recruited several Sheffield Hallam students to our business， and we hope to continue to do so in the coming years. We very much enjoy visiting Sheffield Hallam as part of our milkround， to meet students， lecturers and staff and continue to build our strong relationship with the university.\"

– Rowan.Harwood from DTZ UK
