Four future leaders of Scotland’s building and construction sector have won awards sponsored by leading construction firm Clark Contracts. The four were recognised at the Annual Prize Giving of the School of Engineering and Built Environment at Glasgow Caledonian University (GCU).
Heather McIntyre, pictured second from left, from Dailly, Ayrshire, won the Alan Calder Memorial Prize, a special award for quantity surveying students set up by Clark Contracts in 2008, in memory of a former colleague. The prize, including a cheque for £200, is awarded annually to the top final year Quantity Surveying Student (part time) at Glasgow Caledonian University.
