We are thrilled that the University of Limerick’s Student Centre has been shortlisted for the 2026 ACEI Engineering Excellence Awards in the Structural Medium project category. The project includes a 3,500m2, three-storey over part basement flagship building with a multi-level foyer and ample amenity areas. The structure comprises an exposed reinforced concrete shell, overclad in oak linings, with a brick and limestone façade. Designed and delivered in collaboration with our project partners, the work reflects a shared focus on long-term sustainable design in the built environment.
At PUNCH, we understand the value of education. That’s why we support our staff who wish to undertake further education and training. We encourage staff members to maintain their Continuous Professional Development (CPD) accreditations with Engineers Ireland. We also continue to offer training in sustainable design and construction through seminars, in-house lectures, and external training programmes. We promote the achievement of professional titles with institutions such as Engineers Ireland, the Association of Consulting Engineers of Ireland, the Institute of Structural Engineers, and the Institute of Civil Engineers.
