“At the moment I am working on a church design, school refurbishment and leisure centre presentation drawings. I enjoy the range of work within the practice and the BArch course has given me the skills to complete these projects.”

"I never expected to follow the academic path when I first started architecture in Queen’s but I’m enjoying the change in work but I’m still glad to be studying an architectural topic. Working on the thesis has given me a different scope on architecture but also provided me with some interesting opportunities.” 

 

Jason Von Meding, 28, Chicago, Graduated 2007. Lecturer in Construction Management, Queen’s University Belfast

“Having completed both Part 1 and Part 2 architecture courses at QUB I feel it gave me a grounding in a) how to design and b) how to build what you design. I particularly appreciated the scope that was allowed for innovation and expression of ideas during my education at Queen’s. I have since pursued a PhD in Construction Management and been appointed as a Lecturer.”

“Two of the most interesting projects currently ‘on the drawing board’ in the office are a new hotel for a central urban site in Cardiff, Wales and the conversion of a Grade II listed barn in the English countryside.”
