Name: Mark Crabbe
Degree: Architectural Technology and Management
Current Role: BIM Manager at John McAslan & Partners
My Ulster University course made me job ready. I loved the forward-looking approach.
The software I used at university, was exactly what I needed to learn about for the real world, plus the skills and knowledge that my lecturers passed on were invaluable.
I secured a great job during my placement year at UU, where I gained valuable skills that really set me up for my future. I moved to Perth, Western Australia in 2011 where I secured employment as Architectural Technician and BIM Model Manager for a great company called Hames Sharley.
I really fell in love with Australia, the lifestyle, the people and most importantly the weather.
I have since worked for different firms as a BIM Manager in Australia and currently have a great role as BIM Manager at John McAslan & Partners.
My course at Ulster University helped structure my career journey to date.
Set your goals high and stick to them.
