Graduate Program in Quantity Surveying (GPQS) Al Moalem Institute

Quantity Surveying as a professional function in construction and civil works projects has been slow to receive recognition in India. However, larger size of projects, tight work schedules and more competitive rates has brought quantity surveying to the forefront. This is a function that combines within itself the elements of Civil Engineering, Economics, Finance, Material Sciences, Statistics, Valuation, Management, etc. Now, the performance of almost the entire function has been computerized. Accordingly GDQS has been designed as an interdisciplinary Programme that builds upon all the aforesaid disciplines.
