What do our students think?

"Thank you for all the time and effort you've put into this programme. Unfortunately, I was supposed to have an in-person working experience which was cancelled on me without being notified, so this has been my supplement for it. I honestly believe this has been more useful to me than what I was supposed to do, so thank you for opening my eyes to the world of civil engineering. :D"
