Hopkins Host Alabama’s Auburn University Students at Glengall Road

  • July 4, 2024

We were delighted to welcome 18 students from Alabama’s Auburn University’s McWhorter School of Building Science to our current project hosted in partnership with our client EQUANS, the Glengall Road Student Accommodation in London. As part of their technical visit to Europe and the Middle East, they toured the basement and residential spaces of our £14 million building services project for the The London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE).

Thanks to the collaborative efforts of the Building and Engineering Services Association (BESA Group), under the guidance of Kip Bahra, and the Mechanical Contractors Association of America (MCAA), the students gained valuable insights into our work, guided by Project Director Michael Reader MIET and Lead Design Engineer James Mintram.

“It was a genuine pleasure to support the young graduate engineers visiting from America. This initiative not only fostered international collaboration but also highlighted the talent we have nurtured within our own organisation. Our designer, who began their journey with us as a graduate, had the invaluable opportunity to present the project design, demonstrating their growth and expertise,” said Dominic Harman, our Major Projects Director.

At Hopkins, we believe in the immense benefits of investing in the younger generation. Their fresh perspectives and significant value are vital to our ongoing success and innovation. We look forward to continuing to strengthen industry ties and empower future building science professionals.
