It is of great significance to me, as it is an acknowledgement of the engineering journey that I started in 1979 when I enrolled into NUS. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Along the journey, with the support of my family, friends and colleagues, I have learnt from many masters, and have enjoyed many engineering moments when projects are completed. I can look back with no regrets.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Er Lim Peng Hong graduated from the National University of Singapore in 1983 with a Bachelor of Engineering in Civil Engineering with First Class Honours and with a Master of Science in Civil Engineering in 1986.

As a PEB board member, he is able to participate actively to ensure that engineering continue to excel in the national arena, and that the interests of consulting engineers are championed within the Professional Engineers Board.<\/p>\n<p>Er. Lim was a member of the Institution of Engineers Singapore&#8217;s Engineering Accreditation Board, which accredits engineering degrees awarded in Singapore, in accordance with the internationally recognized Washington Accord framework. The accreditation ensures that our engineering programmes are of high quality and our graduates are recognized within the Washington Accord community.<\/p>\n<p>Er. Lim has been chairing an Academic Advisory Committee in Institute of Technical Education (ITE) since 2010, first as the Chair of the Engineering Services Academic Advisory Committee, which has now been enlarged to include the manufacturing sector in 2016.
