Birmingham City University is offering those interested in a future career in housing the opportunity to find out more about courses available at a dedicated open evening this Thursday 9th July.
Being held from 4-7pm at the University's City North Campus in Perry Barr, there will be the opportunity to talk to the Housing and Community Studies Division team in a friendly and informal way, as well as view facilities, flexible study areas, resources and support that the University offers.
In addition, visitors can tour the campus and facilities, hear about the success stories of previous students and gather information on all aspects of the University.
Veronica Coatham, Head of Division of Housing and Community Studies, said: "If you like working with people and want a career with variety, challenge and opportunity then a career in housing could be right for you. Maybe you already work in housing or are active in community involvement? Have you considered how you could progress your career in a field where jobs and opportunities are still available for capable and qualified people?"
All Birmingham City University programmes are professionally recognised by either the Chartered Institute of Housing or the Environmental Health Registration Board.
The Open Evening will be held in Room 125, Dawson Building, City North Campus. If you would like to attend, or for further information, please contact Naomi Faulkner on naomi.faulkner@bcu.ac.uk or just come along on Thursday evening.
