Ir Prof. Lam Hing-Keung William

I am delighted to extend my heartfelt congratulations to the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering of The Hong Kong Polytechnic University on its 50th Anniversary. In the past 40 years, I have been witnessing the legendary change of CEE from providing vocational education to high-quality postgraduate programmes with over hundreds of PhD students currently. With significant contributions from CEE, PolyU was ranked the 10th best institution worldwide in the Civil and Structural Engineering discipline in QS Ranking 2017 and 2018.  I am confident that CEE will continue to play a leading role in the field of civil and environmental engineering with excelled international reputation. I deeply wish the 50th anniversary celebration of CEE a fruitful and memorable event, and CEE colleagues, students and alumni every success in their future endeavors.
