To foster stronger connections between our undergraduate students and academic staff, we organized a meaningful student event, the CEE Field Study and BBQ Dinner Gathering on 8 November 2024 (Friday) at Tai Mei Tuk. We are delighted to share that approximately 70 participants, including CEE undergraduate students, academic staff, and general staff, came together to embrace diverse cultures.
We had the privilege of having Dr Alessandro Stocchino, Associate Professor of CEE, and Mr Hoi Yung Lin, Instructor of CEE, lead an insightful field study at Plover Cove Reservoir Dam and Lung Mei Beach. Mr Lin offered an engaging overview of the reservoir's history and development, while Dr Stocchino explained the creation and diverse habitats of Hong Kong's first artificial swimming beach. This experience provided our students with valuable real-world learning in both civil and environmental engineering.
The evening culminated in a fantastic BBQ dinner, where participants had the chance to socialize, network, and forge new connections. It was heart-warming to see everyone enjoying a delicious meal together.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to all participants for their enthusiastic involvement. Your contributions made this event truly special. It was a wonderful evening, and we look forward to organizing more events like this in the future to continue building our community.
