Winning dissertation revealed at Ulster University’s Quantity Surveying student awards

Farrans is proud to be a long-time supporter of Ulster University’s annual student awards for the BSc Hons in Quantity Surveying & Commercial Management including sponsoring the award for the Most Commercially Relevant Research Dissertation.

This year ten dissertations were submitted for evaluation, with the winning dissertation titled “The Use of Offsite Construction Across Sectors within the Construction Industry,” completed by Orlaith McCloskey. Orlaith’s dissertation secured her first place and she took home the £1,000 prize.

Pictured in our lead image is Conor Flanagan, Senior Quantity Surveyor at Farrans, Orlaith McCloskey, Andrew Heffernan, Managing Surveyor at Farrans, and Ulster University Quantity Surveying lecturer Declan Diamond.

Meaghan Clarke, who initially joined Farrans as a summer placement student, then returned as a year-out student and now as a graduate quality surveyor also earned several awards, including the Project Management Award, Top QS Project Team, and Surveyor of the Future (3rd place).

By investing in the development of our young professionals, we not only strengthen our organisation but also contribute to the broader advancement of the construction industry.

We look forward to seeing Meaghan, Orlaith and their peers continue to excel and inspire others with their passion and commitment.
