New degree apprenticeships announced to help build the Wales of the future

Jac Beynon

Universities and Industry welcome launch of fully funded programmes up to four-years.

The Welsh Government has teamed up with three universities to launch new degree apprenticeships in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, Quantity Surveying, Building Surveying, and Real Estate.

With the construction sector alone needing an extra 11,000 workers by 2028, the new degree apprenticeships come at a crucial time.

Starting in September 2024, these four-year programmes, fully funded by the Welsh Government, will offer students the chance to earn a degree while gaining hands-on experience in employment. The courses will be offered at Wrexham University, the University of South Wales, and the University of Wales Trinity St David.
