Property pioneer receives top honours

Editorial Type: News     Date: 01-2016    Views: 2016      





An award-winning property professional who became the first woman to hold a top construction industry role has received a prestigious honour from Birmingham University

Louise Brooke-Smith has been awarded an honorary doctorate from Birmingham City University recognising her achievements across the land, property and construction sectors.

In 2014 Louise was appointed Global President of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors becoming both the first ever woman, and the first person from the West Midlands, to hold the position in its 147 year history. Dr Brooke-Smith has nearly 30 years' experience as a Chartered Surveyor and Town Planner and has worked across the globe, including on projects for the United Nations.

"It is a genuine honour to have been awarded this Doctorate from a University where I had the privilege of studying, nearly 30 years ago," said Dr Brooke-Smith. "It is even more pleasing to be attending the ceremony alongside so many people who are at the start of their own journeys and preparing to go out into the world and begin their careers."
