Support, Sponsor or Donate

Our students undertake a diverse range of design projects related to specific engineering disciplines, as well as a number who take a project which is interdisciplinary in nature. We aim to place our design curriculum at the centre of current and emerging societal, technological and economic trends and we greatly value input, support and engagement from engineering and related industries.

Design Project support

Design projects offer our students the opportunity to holistically develop their engineering skills and abilities. Supporting a project through a financial gift, the proposal of a design brief and/or professional support is a highly effective way to achieve a positive impact.

Lecture Series

We are currently seeking a headline sponsor to support the establishment and running of an International Lecture Series; the aim being to attract and host a diverse set of high calibre individuals from around the world, who would expand and enrich our students’ appreciation of design and engineering.

Design Show

Our annual Design Show is seen by around 2,000 visitors each year and has become an event integral to supporting the growth of our design curriculum and celebrating and promoting our students’ achievements. We are currently seeking sponsors for:

  • a Main Title Sponsor for the Design Show
  • the Design Show printed catalogue
  • a range of student design awards
  • exhibition spaces around our faculty buildings to provide year-round exposure for high quality inspirational projects
