Earlier this month, a group of postgraduate students in construction went on a field trip to Bath. Here's what they did - click on the green links for more information. And thanks to staff and students for all the photos...

| Taking the train from Oxford they arrived at Bath Spa station The first stop was a meeting with Sustainability Engineers at Buro Happold for a talk about 'Climate Emergency – What does it mean for Project Managers?' This included a talk about the impact of climate on design decisions made for structural and mechanical engineers involved in specifying the building which led to a discussion about how project managers can also encourage low carbon buildings. Next, students and staff walked through Bath city centre to Bath Abbey taking a look at the Roman Baths on the way. The students were able to visit the technical plant room in Bath Abbey, where a series of heat exchangers have been used to take waste heat from the Roman Baths to heat the Abbey.     This was followed by a site visit to North Parade Student Housing Development hosted by REAL Developments...    Staff and students then enjoyed a walk around Georgian Bath - including the Royal Crescent, Bath Assembly Rooms and the Roman Baths.        For more information about the City of Bath (a World Heritage Site) take a look at the World Heritage Site website. To find out more about the
