How can engineering and construction transform to respond to the climate emergency?
UCL IEDE would like to warmly invite you to attend an event to celebrate a rich 55-year history in the field of Environmental Design and Engineering at The Bartlett.
The climate emergency and potential responses from the construction industry is a key theme of the event that will be explored through presentations and discussions with IEDE staff and guest speakers from the industry.
The presentations and discussions will be followed with a social event at UCL South Cloisters. Join us for an evening of thought provoking discussions, networking, drinks and nibbles!
