Anyone got any contacts/suggestions for London or close to London Civil/Structural Engineering Work Experience?
Thanks
Ollie
Most, if not all of the larger structural and civil engineering companies have head offices in London. You really have a huge selection to approach through the usual routes.
I'm currently on a structural engineering summer placement in Holborn with WSP Cantor Seinuk. They are a specialist in tall structures- they are the company that are doing the shard of glass ( will be the tallest building in Europe) and also the Freedom Towers ( the replacment for the World Trade Centers). Their website: http://www.wspgroup.com/en/Services/Services-Container/Structural_design/
I need work experience too, or a office visit to speak to an civil engineer. does anyone know a work place that are willing to do this asap? I've already tried arup, buro happold and HGB who have are been unsucessful with replying to me.
How old are you. If you have not reached uni yet, then do not expect to get any. You will not have enough experience to do even the most basic things and they will not have enough time to train you (unless you are doing a YinI).
Both really! Its a general question and response I put on every thread asking for Civil work experience
I'm 20. Currently on a YinI Architecture placement (left college last summer), but I want to gain some Civil Engineering experience to see if i could cope with Civil Engineering.
