Back to University

We have just started working with the Civil Engineering & Geosciences team at Newcastle University to give their students a helping hand towards their studies.  In partnership with the University, we are providing the opportunity for students currently studying for a Master’s degree to access our Promap digital mapping software.  The aim is for its students to gain real-life practice of using the commercial tools that are widely-used by property professionals, agents and firms throughout the UK.

Over 50 students are benefiting from using our Promap Contaminated Land module as part of their studies, which will provide valuable knowledge and practical hands-on experience of the commercial mapping application before they graduate and move into their chosen careers in the environmental, engineering and related industries.  In addition, students will receive a certificate to verify that they have used the Promap software as part of their Master’s Degree, which can be provided to future employers.

We are proud to be playing our part towards equipping the next generation of property professionals with valuable knowledge that they can tap into, once they have moved into their chosen careers in the future.
