Cheung Sha Wan Catholic Secondary School (8 May 2026)

CEE was delighted to welcome 28 secondary students from Cheung Sha Wan Catholic Secondary School on 8 May 2026 (Friday) for a wonderful afternoon of exploration and hands-on learning.

The visit commenced with an interactive session hosted by Prof. Andy Leung, Associate Professor of CEE, who provided students with a comprehensive overview of recent developments in civil and environmental engineering. Prof. Leung also shared valuable information regarding admission procedures and career prospects for our two undergraduate programmes, BEng (Hons) in Civil Engineering and BEng (Hons) in Environmental Engineering and Sustainable Development.

We were also deeply honoured to have Ir Dr Goman Ho, ARUP Fellow and Outstanding Alumni of both CEE and Cheung Sha Wan Catholic Secondary School join us for an inspiring sharing session. Dr Ho generously shared his industry insights and encouraged the students to boldly pursue their aspirations.

Another highlight of the day was the exciting Tower Challenge: Engineering with Straws, Tape and Imagination. Students showcased their creativity and problem-solving skills by designing and building free-standing towers using only straws and tape. The winning team achieved an impressive height of 76 cm.

The visit concluded with a tour to the Structural Engineering Research Laboratory. Through a series of engaging demonstrations, students gained some practical knowledge into structural engineering and its applications in buildings and infrastructure.

We extend our sincere thanks to all the participants for their enthusiastic support, and look forward to welcoming more young talents into the world of civil and environmental engineering!
