CIF manifestoAccording to this year’s CAO rates, there has been a rise in students applying for third-level courses in construction.

That means third level points are due to go up next month in higher degree studies linked to the built environment.

Today’s Irish Times claims the revived interest is due to the recent economic recovery.

It appears there are also enough jobs to meet the demand, with the Construction Industry Federation hiring at a rate of around 1,000 people per month.

Overall the CAO has seen an extra 20% apply for construction-linked courses, nursing is up by 9%, while engineering and technology are up by 7%.

Point decreases are likely in dentistry, agriculture and arts degrees.

The Construction Industry Federation is the Irish construction industry’s representative body.
