School of Engineering and Built EnvironmentPrize Giving Ceremony 2016

Welcome to the annual student Prize Giving

Ceremony for the School of Engineering and Built Environment. Each year we take great pleasure in hosting this event celebrating the success of our highest achieving students and the generosity of our sponsors. This year we hope our guests will enjoy the revitalised

campus as a result of our Heart of the Campus project, GCU’s biggest transformation yet.

We are proud to say that it is a former Construction Management student, Mark Saunders (Robertson) that has been leading on the Heart of The Campus and several of our students have gained valuable experience working on site as part of their industrial placement.

As we continuously strive to enhance our students employability prospects this year we brought the Prize Giving forward to June before summer graduation. This will allow students to promote their successes prior to entering the job market and offer a networking opportunity for all students seeking summer employment. We hope you enjoy what is sure to be a memorable evening.

It is a great privilege to welcome you to Glasgow

Caledonian University and the Student Awards Event for the School of Engineering and Built Environment.

A globally networked University, GCU is committed to providing educational opportunity to talented students from a range of

backgrounds and delivering research with a practical benefit to society. Our student awards events are always a source of pride for staff and students alike and celebrate the efforts of each and every member of our University community including those who have excelled.

Central to the education we provide at the University is the support provided by Professional Bodies who accredit our courses and the input from our colleagues in business who help us co-create our curriculum ensuring our teaching is relevant in the modern day world and we are once again grateful for their considerable contributions throughout the year.

These contributions come in a variety of forms: the provision of numerous student prizes; valuable guidance on curriculum design; engagement in joint research; consultancy and knowledge transfer activities, and sometimes as a critical friend offering advice and support. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank the staff of the School who have once again shown great skill, commitment and enthusiasm throughout the year in guiding students to achieve their full potential. I do hope that you will enjoy celebrating the success of our students.

Welcome to Glasgow Caledonian University

Guest speaker

Asset management is the glue that enables evolving

civilisations to bind together to be better places within which to work, invest, live, learn and play. I am delighted to have supported the establishment of the Centre for Built Environment Asset Management at the University, a first in Scotland and I look forward to continuing involvement as it

grows into an internationally recognised centre of excellence for research in this field.

Jim Cochrane, Charlesfort Properties Ltd, Chair BEAM Centre Advisory Board

The Centre for Built Environment Asset Management (BEAM) was established in 2014 through the generous sponsorship of Jim Cochrane. The Centre’s research focus is on maximising social, economic and environmental benefit through the effective development, use and revitalisation of the built environment and through engagement with the communities involved. Healthcare, social housing and infrastructure are sectors with high social impact and where the University has a track record of successful research and collaboration. The work of the Centre aligns with the key research themes that contribute to the University’s commitment to the ‘Common Good’. Initial BEAM Centre projects include the evaluation of health sector asset portfolios across Europe, asset database development to inform investment decision-making in the social housing sector and the health and environmental impacts of green infrastructure initiatives. Through to 2020 the Centre will expand its network of partners and sponsors to support a wider range of projects and the number of sectors that it is involved with. We would welcome discussion with individuals and organisations that are interested in the aims and the work of the Centre and who could contribute to its development.
