ASC Region 8 is pleased to announce the endorsement of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) for the 2025 International Student Competition in Dublin.

Founded in 1868 and headquartered in London, RICS is a globally recognised professional body that promotes and enforces the highest international standards in the valuation, management, and development of land, real estate, construction, and infrastructure. With more than 130,000 qualified professionals and trainees worldwide, RICS plays a leading role in shaping the built environment through its emphasis on competence, integrity, and public trust.

RICS’s endorsement of the ASC Region 8 Student Competition reflects a shared commitment to advancing education, professional excellence, and collaboration between academia and industry. For ASC, this recognition strengthens the global reach of the competition and reinforces its mission to engage students in applied, industry-facing learning experiences that reflect real-world professional standards.

While this marks the beginning of our engagement with RICS, it represents an important milestone in aligning ASC’s international educational initiatives with the values that guide professional practice across the built environment. We look forward to continuing to develop this relationship and exploring new opportunities for collaboration in the months ahead.
