  • Assessments used within these Programmes are normally formative or summative. In the former assessment is designed to ensure students become aware of their strengths and weaknesses.

    Typically, such assessment will take the form of practical exercises where a more hands-on approach shows student’s ability on a range of activities. Traditional formal time-constrained assessment is by means of tests and examinations, normally of two-hour duration. 

    Examinations are a traditional method of verifying that the work produced is the students’ own work. To help authenticate student coursework, some modules require that the student and lecturer negotiate the topic for assessment on an individual basis, allowing the lecturer to monitor progress.

    Some modules where the assessment is research-based require students to verbally/visually present the research results to the lecturer and peers, followed by a question and answer session.

    Such assessment strategies are in accord with the learning and teaching strategies employed by the team, that is, where the aim is to generate work that is mainly student-driven, individual, reflective and where appropriate, vocationally-orientated.

    Feedback to students will occur early in the study period and continue over the whole study session thereby allowing for greater value added to the student’s learning.

Prentisiaeth mewn Mesur Meintiau (BSc Anrh)

Abertawe
4 blynedd
104-120 o Bwyntiau UCAS

Rydym yn cynnig amrywiaeth o raglenni gradd-brentisiaeth â’r nod o ddarparu profiad galwedigaethol llawn a digonol ym meysydd adeiladu, gan gynnwys Arolygu Adeiladau, Rheolaeth Adeiladu, Peirianneg Sifil a Mesur Meintiau. 

Fel y dywed Caroline Gumble (Prif Swyddog Gweithredol y CIOB yn 2020), “Mae’r diwydiant adeiladu yn effeithio ar bawb, gan ddylanwadu ar gynhyrchiant a llesiant, creu’r cartrefi, ysbytai, ysgolion, gweithleoedd a seilwaith sy’n hanfodol ar gyfer ansawdd bywyd da,” ac mae’n mynd ymlaen i ddweud bod adeiladu yn “ddiwydiant cymhleth iawn ond eithriadol o gyffrous ac arloesol”.

Mae’r rheini sy’n gweithio ar safleoedd adeiladu yn unig yn cyfrif am 6% o allbwn economaidd y DU, ond os gwnewch chi hefyd gynnwys y gwasanaethau megis syrfewyr meintiau, penseiri a pheirianwyr yn ogystal â llogwyr peiriannau a chyflenwyr adeiladu, mae’r allbwn yn agosach at ddwbl hynny. Mae hyn yn ganran fawr o allbwn economaidd y DU. Hefyd, mae swyddi adeiladu’n talu’n dda, gan dalu cyfartaledd o 5% yn fwy na diwydiannau eraill, ac mae gan raddedigion yn y maes gyfleoedd yn y DU a thramor mewn amrywiaeth o yrfaoedd boddhaus.

Fel arfer, bydd yr asesiadau hyn ar ffurf ymarferion ymarferol lle mae dull ymarferol yn dangos gallu’r myfyriwr ar amrywiaeth o weithgareddau. Yn draddodiadol, caiff asesiad ffurfiol o fewn amser penodol ei gynnal drwy ddefnyddio profion ac arholiadau sydd, fel arfer, yn para ddwy awr.

    Mae arholiadau’n ddull traddodiadol o wirio mai gwaith y myfyriwr yntau yw’r gwaith a gynhyrchwyd. Er mwyn helpu dilysu gwaith cwrs y myfyriwr, y mae gofyn mewn rhai modylau bod y myfyriwr a’r darlithydd yn trafod y testun a gaiff ei asesu ar sail unigol, gan adael y darlithydd i fonitro cynnydd.

Mae’r strategaethau asesu hyn yn cyd-fynd â’r strategaethau dysgu ac addysgu a ddefnyddir gan y tîm, hynny yw, lle’r nod yw creu gwaith sydd dan arweiniad myfyrwyr, yn unigol, yn adfyfyriol a phan fo’n briodol, wedi’i gyfeirio at alwedigaeth.

Apprenticeship in Quantity Surveying (BSc Hons)

Swansea
4 Years

We offer a range of apprenticeship programmes that aim to provide a full and satisfying vocational experience in the area of construction, including Construction Management and Quantity Surveying.

The Construction Industry continues to offer rewarding and sustained employment within the UK and overseas, from house building to major infrastructure and capital projects, all being undertaken with the support of sustainable approaches, and an ethos of community and environmental care.

Taken as a whole, it is a major contributor to UK GDP (directly around 9% in 2020, rising to around 10% overall, when the entire value chain is considered). It is, without doubt, a driver of historical GDP growth within the UK.

The industry value chain is made up of around 300,000 firms, including many small- and medium-sized family and local businesses. These employ over 3 million people in a multitude of roles representing 8% of all UK employment. Employment opportunity is diverse in nature, from the management of projects, design and costing, to on-site investigation in feasibility, operations logistics, planning and the installation of plant and building services.

The Construction Management course at UWTSD offers students an understanding of the design techniques, methodology and implementation of projects from inception to Client handover, drawing upon UK and worldwide case studies to build knowledge in practical application and professional skills for employment.

    The availability of Welsh medium modules is reviewed regularly and may vary each year depending on staffing, research interests, timetabling, student demand, and minimum enrolment numbers, so specific modules cannot always be guaranteed, get in touch to discuss more.
