Prof. Xu You-lin

It is my great pleasure to congratulate the entire community of the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering  / the Department of Civil and Structural Engineering of The Hong Kong Polytechnic University as we celebrate our 50th anniversary.

Since its founding in 1973, the Department has experienced rapid growth and accelerating development. It has now been highly recognized for its excellent research, practical education and impact of community service. I am very proud to be a member of the Department since 1995 and Head of the Department from 2007 to 2013.

Looking back over these past 50 years with excitement, I wish to extend my best wishes to the Department for its continued path to success over the next 50 years.
