Carrie had studied HNC in construction at college, while working full time as a bridge technician, before taking a Building Surveying degree at University.

Once she had graduated, she started working full time as a Graduate surveyor. She highlighted that other careers in construction had similar career structure and routes, so sharing her experience was very valuable to our students. Electrical and Engineering students commented: -

‘The session was very informative and it was very useful to get a viewpoint from someone who is in construction industry. I also liked to be reassured that there are internships and apprenticeships available for students studying BTEC engineering.’

‘It was nice to be aware of different career pathways.  Even if, I am really interested in electronic engineering and designing new technologies and I am less focused on construction it was good to learn about it.’
