Future Environments 2020 Awards

17 Dec, 2020
 
Future Environments Awards
Project Growbox, winner of the Bachelor of Creative Technologies Teaching Team Award

AUT’s School of Future Environments annual awards recognise the success and achievement of our amazing students and their fantastic work across Built Environment Engineering and Creative Technologies. Architecture was a new discipline in 2020, so there is not yet graduating student work to award.

The student work demonstrates their ability to rise to the challenges thrown up by COVID-19 and the students’ ability to think creatively in a different learning environment.

The strength of relationships with the School’s industry partners provides a crucial connection for students as they head towards graduation.
