The Chartered Institute of Architectural Technologists (CIAT) has announced the winners of its annual Student Awards, which celebrate exceptional work produced by students of architectural technology.
The shortlists and winners were selected by a judging panel comprising experts in the discipline.
The Student Award for Excellence in Architectural Technology (project) was awarded to the Glen Hotel retrofit project by Cian Gilligan from Waterford Institute of Technology.
The judges said the project was “well detailed and presented to very high professional standards”.
St John’s Church by Katherine Morrison from the University of the Highlands and Islands was highly commended in this category, and the Harley-Davidson Centre by James O’Neill of Ulster University was commended in this category.
The Student Award for Excellence in Architectural Technology (report) recognises outstanding research achievement in architectural technology.
The winner was Joshua Slingsby from Sheffield Hallam University for his report – A Critical Evaluation of Cross Laminated Timber Construction. The judges said the report demonstrated “an outstanding overall understanding of a well-defined problem”.
Petra Schwarczova, also from Sheffield Hallam University, was highly commended for her report and Samuel Trevor, again from Sheffield Hallam University was also commended by the judges.
Robert Hill MCIAT, vice-president education, said: “The Student Awards this year have once again proved that architectural technology students are producing excellent work of the highest standard which is a credit to their work and dedication.”
