Joe Axelrod and Ryan Rodrigues, both graduates of LSBU’s Building Services Engineering course, have received nominations for the RAC Magazine’s National Student of the Year competition and the CIBSE Young Engineers Awards respectively. These awards recognise the best up-and-coming engineers in the country and reward the innovative thinking, hard work and skill potential of graduate engineers.

Professor Charles Egbu, Dean of LSBU’s School of The Built Environment and Architecture, commented: “I’m really pleased that Joe and Ryan’s strong potential has been praised by the built environment industry in these award nominations. The fact that LSBU graduates are shortlisted for these highly acclaimed awards highlights the value and standing of an LSBU degree within the sector.”
