Meet Professor Nick Tyler in the UCL Department of Civil, Environmental & Geomatic Engineering (@cege_ucl ). He is the Director of PEARL (Person-Environment-Activity-Research Laboratory) and has dedicated his career at UCL to a radical idea: that we should design our world around how humans actually feel, move, and sense. At PEARL’s massive 40,000 m³ facility, Professor Tyler and his team recreate entire city streets - complete with controlled light, sound, and smell - to test everything from new transport systems to how those living with dementia navigate the world. 🧠✨ Because a city that doesn’t listen to its people is just noise. Here, research makes an impact. Learn more about PEARL via the link in our bio. 📸: @by.emmiwk

Join us to recognise, celebrate and showcase the achievements of Professor Béatrice Baudet! 🎉 In her Inaugural Lecture, Professor Baudet will ask "soils are made of grains: why do we, engineers, ignore them?". She will look at sands and clays and show why the microscale matters. 🔬 This free event is open to students, staff and members of the public. Register for the event now via the link in our bio! 👉

Two weeks. One city. Countless insights. The Holcim Foundation’s first European Fellowship brought an interdisciplinary cohort to London in July 2025 for two intensive weeks of studio work, site visits, and practitioner dialogues. Hosted by @@cege_ucl , the Fellows explored the city’s planning culture and investigated The London Plan, with inputs from @amandalevetearchitects  , @bdp_com  , @buro_happold , @eocengineers , @expedition_engineering , @rshparchitects , @publica_studio , @akt_ii , and the Greater London Authority. 📒 The Fellowship concluded with a public presentation at the Royal Academy of Engineering and a collective “What If?” manifesto. Read the publication on our website. 👏 Congrats to our incredible fellows Anastasia Pidiaki, André Arruda Navarro, Anna Baumann, Antonio Santa, Beatrice Mhagama, Chara Pouliou, Ching-Tai Chang, DOMENICA ALBORNOZ, Juan Bugarin, Lilly Huber, Maria Heinrich, Marta Varialle, Ridha Tantowi, Natalie Feakins, Océane Seba, Solomon Ayres. 🙏 A heartfelt thank you to Jose Torero, Matthew Heywood, and Dr Michael Woodrow, Chris Wise, Amanda Levete, Matthew Wilkinson, Paige Lee, Albert Williamson-Taylor, Anna Wendt, Peter Goff, John Roycroft, Victoria Martin, Damian Rogan, Hugh McGilveray, Duncan Walters, Mark Leitner-Murphy, James Lee, and many other partners.
