Courses in building maintenance can help students gain the desirable skills in building construction and management that can be applied to a wide range of fields, including commercial construction, transportation, and the gas and oil industry. Environmental impact and sustainability may also be emphasized.

The MSc, or Master of Science, is an internationally recognized academic degree that indicates proficiency and knowledge of a given topic or field. Most MSc programs take about four years to finish, after which some join the workforce while others continue on in the classroom.

Part time learning allows one to obtain part-time degrees even if one cannot attend school on a full-time basis. One can learn at his or own pace, gradually accumulating credits which count towards final qualification.
