The showcase was all about making technology tangible. For aspiring engineers like Priyal from Nanyang Junior College, it was a chance to find clarity. “I’m trying to apply to CDE, and I’m passionate about robotics, so I came to find out more. I learned about the different engineering disciplines and what each specialises in, especially mechanical engineering. It’s been really informative.”

The event also reshaped perspectives on AI. As Chen Leyi from Tampines Meridian Junior College put it, “Usually, we see AI as a new technology that comes out to take our jobs, but in the engineering field, engineers can work together with AI to make something possible. It brought a new perspective on AI for me.”

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us. Your curiosity and thoughtful questions created a vibrant learning experience for all!
