In recognition of the excellence of high performing students, the Hong Kong Housing Society (HKHS) awarded a group of local tertiary institutions’ students, four of whom are from our Department, in the 12th HKHS Award Presentation Ceremony on 21 January 2017.
This achievement gave a strong spur to our winning students to aim high and realise their potential. They include Cheung Yiu Sing (Property Management Programme), Cheung Yuk Nam (Surveying Programme), Sze Cheuk Lam (Building Engineering and Management Programme) and Wong Kit Ming (Building Technology and Management Programme-Surveying).
The Award Presentation Ceremony was full of delights and volleys of applause. For the Department, Prof. Eddie Hui, Programme Leader of Property Management Programme, extended our warmest congratulations to the four students in the Ceremony while they were very grateful to receive the certificates from Mr. Marco Wu, HKHS Chairman.
The Hong Kong Housing Society Award dates back to 2006 with the purposes of recognizing students with outstanding academic performance, providing financial support to needy students, nurturing young talents for the housing industry and supporting local housing development. In addition, HKHS realised the growing demand for well-trained elderly services professionals that is a matter of great concern to the community. Consequently, since 2012, the HKHS Award has extended to courses related to elderly-care services.
