First minister Alex Salmond officially opened the college. He said: 鈥淭he innovative building will enhance student鈥檚 educational experience, as well as providing a valuable resource for the community to use鈥�.
The project team included:
- Hulley & Kirkwood Consulting Engineers
- Structural/Civil Engineers AECOM

- Electrical Subcontractor Forth Electrical Services
Remodelling Education Spaces takes place at the University of Manchester on 13 - 14 September
