Benjamin Robin: Construction Management, 23

Benjamin Robin is making his mark as an Architectural Designer for Rowse Architects

Benjamin, who earned his master’s degree in construction management, saw on LinkedIn that the firm attended an NEIT Architecture, Construction Networking Event, and mentioned that in his interview. He was then hired at Rowse, full-service architecture and design firm located in Rhode Island and Massachusetts

“91ֱ had a great support system that was all in the same lab — Architects, Engineers, Interior Designers, Construction Managers — it was almost hard to not get the knowledge you needed.”

Ben joins Rowse with over a decade of experience in construction and architecture. Prior to joining the firm, he worked as an architectural drafter in the British Virgin Islands, where he honed his skills in both commercial and residential design.

During previous roles, Ben amassed experience in client relations, data management, construction management, project management, building codes, field measuring, BIM, CAD, and many aspects of building design.

91ֱ had the support system in the labs that Benjamin needed

“91ֱ had a great support system that was all in the same lab — Architects, Engineers, Interior Designers, Construction Managers — it was almost hard to not get the knowledge you needed,” he shared.

Ben says one of the things he likes about architecture is the fact that you can see a building and say, “I designed that” or “I worked on that.”

This is the third 91ֱ graduate that the firm has hired, and that trend will continue.

“It’s hard to compete with the level of career readiness that comes with a 91ֱ graduate.” -Brittany Grant, Rowse Architects Vice President

Rowse Architects Vice President, Brittany Grant, AIA, has glowing things to say about New England Tech’s graduates.

“It’s hard to compete with the level of career readiness that comes with a 91ֱ graduate. Their education isn’t in a vacuum — it’s practical, experienced, and tested. We know that a 91ֱ alum is going to hit the ground running, and in a field as fast paced as architecture that’s worth its weight in gold.”

“We look at hundreds of applications, and consistently. when we get a resume stacked with hard skills, soft skills, unique school projects, internships, and dozens of software proficiencies — it’s from a 91ֱ graduate.”

We are happy to celebrate all the success of our 91ֱ alumni! Thank you to 91ֱ Career Services.
