opening ceremony was held at NED’s main campus, where Dr. Sarosh H. Lodi, Vice Chancellor of NED University and Mr. Ahsan A. Siddiqui, Chief Executive of EA Consulting both expressed their pleasure at the collaboration between the university and industry, and the exciting opportunity being provided to students.

The aim of this integrated competition is to motivate students to extend their knowledge and experience beyond the class room. The competition’s basic intention is to challenge students’ imaginative thinking and creative architectural and engineering approach by working on a real life project assignment. The other main objective is to encourage students to collaborate with students of other departments and better understand priorities of each other to deliver a final product. An overwhelming response from students was observed on the occasion.

The competition invited submissions from teams having 8 undergraduate students in 3rd and   4th year of Architecture and Engineering Programs. Ten teams were shortlisted and to encourage the inter-departmental collaboration, it was mandatory for each team to include the students from Architectural, Civil, Mechanical and Electrical departments.

The competition TOR and design brief were shared with all the teams to provide the opportunity of professional experience. After design submissions from each team, and evaluation by an independent panel of professionals and academicians, the competition will culminate in February 2018 with a recognition and award ceremony.

The competition is planned to be an annual event with the hope that it will become a highly desired event for the students to showcase their creativity and excellence in design solutions. A huge thanks to Dr. Amir Qureshi, Director, Directorate of Industrial Liaison at NED, and the NED coordination committee – for driving this competition on their campus.(Focal persons group pic)EA Consulting the leading national provider of multi-disciplinary engineering and architecture design services in Pakistan and over its 30 years history, has undertaken hundreds of national and international projects for a diverse group of clients.
