Student posters sponsored by the IHE

  • Monday July 21, 2025

The Innovation Fest at Birmingham City University once again showcased the work of its three Colleges of Computing, Engineering and the Built Environment. The event provided a valuable platform for meaningful interaction between the university and industry.

Dr Foroogh Hajiseyedjavadi of Birmingham City University said: ‘We were thrilled, now for the second consecutive year, to have representation from IHE in both a judging and sponsorship capacity for the student poster competition for our Level 4 Civil Engineering Design Module. Their sponsorship contributed to the awards for the competition winners.

‘The poster competition captured the attention of our industry attendees, leading to lively and insightful conversations with our students. This has been a successful event, a special thanks to Mr. Gafoor Din and Prof Pryce Evans for supporting us, serving as the judges for the poster competition, engaging in discussions with our students about their design projects, and to IHE for their generous sponsorship of the competition.’
