Alumni story / Higher Diploma in Sustainable Engineering
A student project that became a job
Jason’s final project in the building energy lab caught the attention of an engineering consultancy.
The energy-saving scheme I design today started as a student project in the building energy lab.
The final project
We monitored air-conditioning use in a campus building, found a lot of wasted energy at night and designed an automatic control scheme.
At the graduate show
An engineering consultant saw our report at the graduate show and asked a lot of questions. A month later they invited me to an interview.
Today
I’m now an assistant engineer designing energy-saving systems for commercial buildings, and studying part-time for a degree.
