back to Making a Difference

FEBRUARY 2011

While at the University of Auckland studying civil engineering Kate Draper won the Harrison Grierson Prize for outstanding achievement in Water and Wastewater Engineering. The Prize, a cheque for $1500 and a framed certificate was presented to Kate at the Engineering School Awards Function and was acknowledged by Kate at the time as "being a real help towards the costs of studying".

Since finishing her degree in 2010 with 1st Class Honours, Kate joined Harrison Grierson and works in the Water & The Environment Business Sector on a variety of water engineering projects in NZ and Australia. Kate has told her colleagues she is "really enjoying the projects she is working on and feels fortunate to have found such a great position to start and develop her career".
