Engineers of the future: BEEE Engineer Pop-up

The Department of Building Environment and Energy Engineering (BEEE) of The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) successfully organized the highly anticipated event "Engineers of the Future: BEEE Engineer Pop-up" on 5 October 2023. The event aimed to provide valuable insights and networking opportunities for BEEE students.

This event brought together five professional engineering societies:

• ASHRAE (American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers) - HK chapter;
• BSOMES (Building Services Operation and Maintenance Executives Society);
• CIBSE (Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers) – HK Region;
• CIPHE (The Chartered Institute of Plumbing and Heating Engineering); and
• HKIE (Hong Kong Institution of Engineers) – Building Services Division.

The “Engineers of the future: BEEE Engineer Pop-up” was a valuable opportunity for our BEEE students interested in their future engineering careers to connect with the professional engineering societies closely related to their field.  Students had the chance to learn about the latest information and speak with the representatives from each professional body to discuss their professional status, engineering communities, express route to be qualified as a corporate member, registered professional engineers (RPE), and CEng, etc. The Department also sponsored the first-year membership fee of any society of students’ choice.

BEEE would like to extend our gratitude to all representatives for their voluntary participation in the “Engineers of the future: BEEE Engineer Pop-up”. BEEE believes that this experience will inspire and guide our students as they embark on their engineering journeys.
