As President, I also have the privilege of inviting distinguished engineers to Fellowship. As you may have read earlier in this blog, I already did so for Deputy Prime Minister Hai of Vietnam last October.
Last evening, I similarly awarded Fellowship to:
- Tim Chapman, of Arup, a leader in geotechnics;
- Bill Grimson, of DIT, a respected and a long time senior volunteer for Engineers Ireland;
- Dervilla Mitchell, a director of Arup, and who lead the design team of the Heathrow Terminal 5 project;
- Regina Moran, who developed her career as an Engineering Technician to Chartered Engineer and is now the CEO of Fujitsu Ireland (and who spoke at our recent conference); and
- Ray O'Rourke, who is the founder, CEO and Chairman of Laing O'Rourke, now one of the world's largest construction firms.
Finally, I was delighted to be able to give a special award to Malcolm O'Kelly, of the Irish rugby team and who has freely given much of his time as an engineer to our STEPs programme.
