UK housebuilder Redrow has launched a housebuilding degree in partnership with Liverpool John Moores University and Coleg Cambria in Wales. The three-year course is the first of its kind in the UK and will teach students about all aspects of housebuilding. It was developed by the company to help young people get into the property market as well as giving them an insight into how they can make their own home more energy efficient. Six modules will be completed each year by students. While the degree programme will initially be open only to Redrow employees -- 15 are expected to be accepted each year -- the company and its academic partners plan to expand it in the future.
