  2. Provide feedback on the 3 proposals that were successful in the recent EPSRC call in Ground & Structural Engineering.
  3. Provide feedback from EPSRC on the outcomes of this previous call > and an update of EPSRC’s current priorities in civil engineering.
  4. Update on new research initiatives in civil engineering including the TSB Future Cities and Transport catapults.
