Case Study: Tom Brophy MCIAT

I qualified in 1998 with a National Diploma in Architectural Technology from Waterford Institute of Technology.
 
As a part qualified Architectural Technologist, I worked in Dublin with MV Cullinan Architects for two years. I was involved in such projects as the fit-out of headquarters for MCI WorldCom (Ireland) and housing for Ballymun Regeneration Ltd.
 
I also worked for Conroy Architects in Wexford for four years in a senior position and was involved in various Department of Education school projects along with new build and fit-out projects for Sam McCauley Chemists Ltd and a four star hotel and leisure complex for Whites Hotel Ltd.
 
As a Chartered Architectural Technologist, I am currently involved as a Design Team Leader on two secondary school projects to the value of €11 million for John P Delaney Architects. We have also recently completed a multi million-euro development for Newbridge Credit Union in which I played a significant role as an Architectural Technologist.
 
Working in the industry is something I very much enjoy as each week can bring a fresh and different challenge. There is also a large variety of projects due to the current economic climate in Ireland and my experience is that this opens the door to Architectural Technology graduates to gain a higher level of experience from greater involvement in all aspects of projects from inception to completion.
 
As a Chartered Architectural Technologist, I recently set up my own Architectural Technology, Project Management & Specialist Glazing Consultancy practice, Brophy Doyle Limited with my colleague Adrian Doyle. We are currently working on various one-off houses, architectural glazing projects and providing architectural technical support to various RIAI practices from our offices in Athy, County Kildare with a move to Carlow Town as our long term objective.
 
I attained Chartered Membership of CIAT in 2006.
