BT Bell was delighted to participate in the recent civil engineering event hosted by Newcastle University for their ACCESS careers initiative.

Specifically, our engineering team met with ambitious students and graduates to discuss industry pathways, project experience, and consultancy roles. Attending this event allows us to support early-career talent and build strong connections within the local academic community.

Civil Engineering Event and Graduate Engagement

Throughout the exhibition, our representatives shared practical insights into delivering major civil and structural projects across the UK. Crucially, bridging the gap between university education and professional consultancy practice is vital to inspire the next generation of engineers.

Highlights from our participation in the Newcastle event included:

  • Career Guidance: Discussing career pathways in civil design, structural engineering, and geotechnical assessment. Additionally, we offered advice on transitioning from degree studies into consultancy roles.

  • Industry Insights: Presenting real-world case studies from our industrial, energy, and heritage portfolios. Also, our team highlighted how modern software like Revit 3D BIM transforms project delivery.

  • Graduate Recruitment: Connecting with talented students seeking placement opportunities and graduate vacancies. Simultaneously, we outlined BT Bell's structured support for chartership through the ICE and IStructE.

Supporting the Next Generation of Engineers

Historically, university partnerships play a critical role in sustaining regional engineering expertise across the North East. However, BT Bell remains committed to investing in young talent to support long-term consultancy growth.

Because of this, engaging with Newcastle University students helps us identify motivated graduates for our expanding team. As a result, we continue to foster a vibrant, highly skilled workforce in Hexham. Ultimately, attending this event underscores our dedication to educational outreach and professional development. In conclusion, we thank Newcastle University for organizing a successful careers showcase and look forward to future collaborations.
