Can you help support our students? We are looking for industry partners to get involved in the following areas of our work;

Can you contribute to our SoBEE Guest Lecture Series?

 We are looking for practitioners to present case studies of current or recent projects they have been involved in. These can be from any discipline (e.g. architect, engineer, contractor, client etc.) with the key messages being around successes, challenges and learning outcomes going forward. Email [email protected] if you are interested in taking part.

Student Work Placement and Shadowing Opportunities: Can you help?

We are seeking businesses who can help offer short term placements to our students in a number of different fields.
