The annual ICE North East Robert Stephenson Awards (RSAs) are held to promote and reward excellence in civil engineering.
The awards are the highlight of the civil engineering calendar in the region and is a great opportunity for civil engineers in the region to celebrate their achievements.
The winners will be announced at the ICE North East Annual Dinner to be held at the Newcastle Marriott Hotel Gosforth Park on Thursday 18 April 2013.
The objective of the Robert Stephenson Awards is to give recognition to outstanding examples of research, design and construction undertaken by members and organisations within ICE North East.
The Awards will be made for Civil Engineering projects with a regional dimension in recognition of particular merit, physical achievement, innovation or ingenuity and promote the excellence of the engineering profession.
These esteemed awards recognise construction projects that demonstrate excellence in concept, planning, design, construction, demolition, maintenance or operation.
Outstanding projects which are considered environmentally sustainable, and/or help contribute to the preservation of our heritage, or where innovation features strongly in a project may be awarded additional or special awards.
If you would like to sponsor the event in 2013 please contact Nicola Railton to discuss the opportunities.
