@UoD_Structures @LeonChernin @Margi_StructEng @tsanghho @Xuemei747941 What a team!

[UoD Structural Engineering @UoD_Structures]

The most fashionable #structures team ever? Checking out our cleared out lab space.
More staff and a promise of investment in our lab… what more could we ask for?

Great to see some veteran colleagues return to see him off on his retirement journey.

Farewell Ian, you will be sorely missed.

[Concrete@Dundee @CTUDundee]

Today saw us bid farewell to Dr Ian Mackie, retiring after 35 years (well 12,996 days to be precise, as he reminded us!) of inspiring civil engineering students at @dundeeuni.

[Concrete@Dundee @CTUDundee]

After graduating from Oxford in mathematics, Ian initially came to Dundee in the early 1980’s to undertake his PhD, returning a few years later to became a lecturer making a huge contribution on our degrees in all things structures, statistics and FEM.

@ENGINEERMIMI_ @gold_wala @CBeebiesHQ Great to see, Mimi. Well done. Will be tuning in for this. 👏

Now we’re all big fans of concrete here in Dundee but I think this is maybe taking it a bit too far.

Fantastic photo from 1961. Looking north you can see the construction of the Fulton Building, the home of Civil Engineering!
