Dear students, alumni, colleagues, and partners of CDE,

This month, we celebrate CDE’s improved standing in the QS World University Ranking by Subject 2026. The achievement is a wonderful affirmation of our community’s efforts. It energises us to continue fostering a vibrant academic community and empowering the next generation to design and build a better, more sustainable future for all.

We are committed to a curriculum that not only imparts deep technical expertise but also fosters critical thinking and creativity. The impact of our research is also creating tangible solutions for society that address important issues like climate change, public health and digital transformation.

I thank everyone in the CDE community for your continued support of our mission to inspire, innovate and transform.
