INTRODUCTION

The increasing in demand and supply in the housing sector is largely due to the increase

in population and rising affluence. The rapid

growth of urbanisation & globalization has put

pressures on urban & housing development. Housing problems arising from this phenomenon are complex &

possible solutions are hampered partly due to lack of skilled personnel. This programme

is envisaged to fill the present vacuum.

3

We leadOBJECTIVE

issues in housing, increase the  knowledge  on relevant aspects of
