RICS set up the RICS Education Trust in 1955 as a registered charity (no. 313744). Its objectives are to promote and advance, by the provision of grants, scholarships, awards, prizes or otherwise, education and research into matters relating to the theory and practice of surveying in any of its branches.
RICS and Universitas 21 (U21) have collaborated to establish an opportunity for students at one university to undertake part of their recognised degree programme at another university or universities in one of ten countries around the world.
New RICS Education Trust funded research looks at the impact of urban parks and open spaces on residential property values.
