Bond Bryan Architects Launch New Partnership with Bradford College

BRADFORD, U.K. - Nov. 1, 2023 - PRLog -- The Bond Bryan Academy will see the company's team of highly skilled professionals serve as guest lecturers, adding vital industry knowledge and perspective to Bradford College students' learning.

Bond Bryan will also undertake workshops, site visits, and mentorship programmes for students across various courses in the College's Construction & Engineering Department, immersing them in the day-to-day operations of a successful architecture firm.

As part of the partnership, a specially designed Bond Bryan base room has been designed and built in the heart of Trinity Green Campus. As well as serving as a purpose-built classroom to support Design, Surveying, & Planning for Construction T Level students, architects will use the facility to oversee new estate projects on site.

Bond Bryan has in-depth knowledge of the education sector and curriculum requirements at Bradford College. The team has collaborated on various successful projects to date, including the design and construction of both the College's David Hockney Building and Advanced Technology Centre.

Speaking at the launch event, Bond Bryan CEO Matt Hutton said: "Our ethos is 'more than design' which, for us, is about doing something with our clients and communities beyond just the boundary of the projects we're working on.

"This [partnership with Bradford College] is a perfect example of how to reach students and create pathways for them into vocational courses, hopefully within this brilliant industry. It's all about trying to show them that there are opportunities out there beyond what they've even considered."

The launch event saw Matt Hutton visit Bradford College to deliver an insightful talk to staff and students about his route into architecture and how students will benefit from the partnership going forward.

Stephen Smith, Bradford College Head of Department for Construction & Engineering, said: "We're thrilled with the exciting new partnership with Bond Bryan. This collaboration will provide valuable opportunities for students to gain real-world experience and insight into the architecture and construction industries."
