Aims
To produce competent graduates who are core members of teams responsible
for successful project delivery and who apply their engineering skills to accurately
evaluate construction projects in contribution to the national economy and social
wellbeing while maintaining high ethical standards.
2 Teaching language English
3 Duration 2 years
4 Background and rationale Programs at Colleges of Technology were developed in response to the

2
(Provide a rationale for the development of this
programme. Include an explanation of why it was
developed, the purposes it fulfils and the way it
meets the needs of Oman, for example National
Occupational Standards, Professional Body
Requirements or local and regional needs. Provide
details of market research used to support the
introduction of the new program)
recommendations of the first National Symposium for the Employment of National
Manpower (2001).
Subsequently another symposium was held in 2003 with wide involvement from
the private and public sectors as well as international representatives from UK,
Ireland, Australia, UAE and Malaysia. New programs were proposed to cater for
the needs of the national socio-economic development as per Oman Vision 2020
and Oman Vision 2040. (Reference: MoMP Achievement Report 1970–2010.
Page No 79 - 93). Specialization committee for curriculum review as per CDRF,
Ministerial decree 212/2009, and administration decree 15/2018.
Quantity Surveying was started in the Higher College of Technology in the
nineties. The outcomes were last updated in 2007 based on industry input.
The program aligns itself with the RICS (Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors)
Quantity Surveying Assessment of Professional Competence Pathway.
Multiple countries including the United Kingdom, Sri Lanka and Australia have
found the need for professionals who specialize in the quantitative measurement
of construction resources including human and technical resources as well as
time. This is proven by the existence of active and growing professional bodies in
those countries (RICS, IQSSL, AIQS)
Demand for quantity surveyors follows the demand curves of other professions in
the construction industry showing that it is much needed.
According to the American Bureau of Labor Statistics (n.d.), the demand for
quantity surveyors from 2016-2026 is expected to grow significantly higher than

3
the average job.
This specialization helps the civil engineers focus on the design and construction
aspects while the site, time, basic accounting and management sides can be
managed by specialists (quantity surveyors).
Quantity surveyors in New Zealand earn a median salary of NZD$78,000
annually which is significantly higher than the overall median: NZD$53,000)
This shows the need for quantity surveyors internationally which will translate to
local needs (local civil engineering courses teach only one course for estimation –
thus excluding normal civil engineers from being able to do this job) and a healthy
amount of growth is expected in the future which is impressive considering that
this is a non-IT-centric field.
The specialization name is changed to “Quantity Surveying and Cost
Engineering”
Benchmarking carried out with 10 universities (5 in the UK, 2 in Australia, 2 in
Oman and 1 in Canada) shows that our graduates are engineers and the name
needs to be added to the title for them to get the rank in the public and private
sectors. Other universities add commercial management / cost engineering to the
name as well. The market demands engineers who can add value for the client in
light of Oman Vision 2040 and other factors.
