We're proud of the strong links we've forged with a huge variety of businesses, professional bodies and institutions, in the UK and far beyond. Find out what leading businesses have to say about our civil engineering students working on placement with them:

"Stirling Maynard Construction Consultants have a very well established relationship with Nottingham Trent University (NTU). We have provided experience to industrial placement students, employed graduates and sponsored engineers through part or all of their degree in civil engineering for over 20 years.

"We value our relationship with NTU as they provide a very good and practical academic foundation from which graduates can develop into versatile professionals. Stirling Maynard provides structured training during the industrial placement year, which very often leads to sponsorship of the students’ final year and postgraduate employment on our Institution of Civil Engineers Approved Graduate Training Scheme.

"Our current and future success depends upon the technical and managerial capability of our engineers, and the attributes of NTU students and graduates continues to impress."

Jim Duffin, Director, Stirling Maynard Construction Consultants

"NTU produce excellent civil engineers that are both academic and practical, which suits our contracting business.

"The NTU students and graduates that have joined Birse Civils Limited over recent years now form the backbone of the business and make a major contribution to its success."

Steven D Parry, Technical Business Manager, Birse Civils Limited (Midlands)

"The Ringway Group has developed a close working relationship with Nottingham Trent University because it has a well-deserved reputation for producing high calibre practical engineers who are of use to the company from day one without requiring initial further training.

"The Group has been so impressed by the calibre of the students from the University seconded to us for their placement training, that we have subsequently offered sponsorship for their final year and a permanent position on graduation."

Mike Burnett, Group Manager Business Development, Ringway Group

"Fitzpatrick have received industrial placement students and graduate engineers from Nottingham Trent for many years. We continue to maintain this relationship, as NTU produce civil engineers who have the talent and expertise that suits our contracting business. We offer our industrial placement students a structured training programme with objectives that can be then be transferred on to our ICE accredited graduate scheme. We can also offer sponsorship and employment on graduation. Those students who have joined us after graduation are now making a major contribution to our successful civil engineering business."

Alistair Thompson, Major Projects Director, Fitzpatrick Contractors Ltd
