CEE Thailand Study Tour 2025

CEE Thailand Study Tour 2025

The CEE Thailand Study Tour to Bangkok (5-11 January 2025) offered our CEE UG students a deeply immersive and enriching learning experience. By engaging with professors and students at King Mongkut's University of Technology Thonburi (KMUTT), our students gained valuable insights into Thailand's civil engineering advancements, particularly the rapid development of its transportation system. During the seven-day visit, the group explored an MRT subway construction site, a flood diversion project, the Benjakitti Forest Park, and the ancient temples in Ayutthaya.

In addition to following the itinerary organised by CEE and KMUTT, the students had the opportunity to design a two-day itinerary for themselves. This allowed them to explore the similarities and differences in sustainable civil engineering practices and cultures between Bangkok and Hong Kong, encouraging critical thinking and broadening their perspectives beyond their home city.

We are grateful for the warm hospitality extended by the professors and students of KMUTT. Their kindness and welcome greatly enriched our experience, making the study tour both enjoyable and informative. We believe this experience will inspire our students and enhance their understanding of civil engineering.
