The department was honoured by the visit of Ms Ho Ching, CEO of Temasek and delegates from Temasek Foundation International to our department on 20 Nov 2018. The department shared the latest developments of our educational programmes, including those related to digitalization and skills-future in line with our nation’s effort. Our students presented Operation Orion, a student-initiated community service project which started in 2000 to sharpen students’ knowledge and skills in designing and building infrastructure in rural villages around Asia. The team also visited the Centre for Advanced Materials and Structure (CAMS) to view selected research projects that focused on driving sustainability via innovation in lightweight and ultra-high performance concrete, use of waste (excavation-waste, bio-waste,
incineration-waste) as cement replacement, and self-healing concrete.
