Smajo Beso
David Broadbent
Jane Carradice
Smajo joined the programme in 2016 following
several years’ experience in local architectural
and urban design practice, and as a design tutor
at Newcastle University’s School of Architecture,
Planning and Landscape. Smajo’s native country is
Bosnia. He witnessed the dramatic destruction of
cultural identity and architectural heritage during the
Bosnianwar (a subject he is exploring further through
doctoral research). These unforgettable memories
bestowed Smajo with a deeper understanding of the
meaning of architecture. He is leading the Graduate
Diploma design modules.
David studied Modern History at the University of
Oxford, and later gained a Post-graduate Diploma
in Law. His career has encompassed a wide range
of disciplines including Intellectual Property, IT,
multimedia and digital design, as well as illustration
for Disney and Warner Bros. He was a consultant
and lead designer for River Path Associates before
becoming an English teacher, initially for the Chinese
ICT Learning Centre in Newcastle and then later at
Newcastle College. David joined INTO in 2012 and
now leads the Architecture, Culture, History and
Theory modules.
Jane joined INTO Newcastle University in 2007 and
holds an MA in Applied Linguistics and TESOL and
a PGCE in Further Education. For the past six years,
she has focused exclusively on teaching English for
Academic Purposes (EAP) for Architecture on the
International Foundation, International Year One
and Graduate Diploma pathways. Prior to joining
INTO, Jane taught Contract Law at the University of
Bordeaux, France, and English in Japan. Her interests
include creative writing, drawing, and Newcastle
United Football Club.
