Higher education

Willmott Dixon has been working in higher education for 100 years, delivering projects to enhance a university’s ability to attract and retain the best academics and students.

Whether it’s technically complex – we built the world’s quietest building, the Nanoscience and Quantum Information facility at University of Bristol – a specialist centre of research at Cambridge University or updating existing services and heating installations for Swansea University, we deliver it with minimal disruption to campus life.

With the Carbon Reduction Commitment set to have major financial implications for higher education, our in-house sustainability team Re-Thinking are working with universities to reduce their liability under this new legislation. This includes making existing facilities Climate Change Resilient.

Whether it be single or two stage tender or long term frameworks, our focus on partnering and sustainable low carbon construction whilst minimizing disruption to the Campus environment makes us an ideal company to work with.
