Estimating success
Published: Friday, 2 October 2009
University of Newcastle Bachelor of Construction student Nathan West has received the inaugural 2009 Master Builders Association (NSW) Student Estimator of the Year Award. Estimators develop and determine tendering strategies and profits, and calculate and monitor costs of construction projects, from feasibility to completion.
Mr West was recommended for the award by his lecturer, after receiving outstanding results for a project in which students estimated the costs of the current development opposite Newcastle Beach.
