Abstract:
This paper examines the employment patterns of undergraduate students enrolled in the Bachelor of Construction course at the University of Technology Sydney (UTS) and the issues that emanate from such employment. The research underpinning this paper is based on two surveys conducted by the author in 2005 and 2006. The study builds on similar research conducted between 2003-05 for full-time students studying property related undergraduate courses in Australia. The UTS course comprises a relatively even mixture of full-time and part-time students and thus provides a good comparison to these previous studies that largely focused on full-time students.
