Prof. Bo-sin TANG, Associate Head of the Department of Building & Real Estate, has received the Distinguished Alumni
Award from the Centre of Urban Studies and Urban Planning(CUSUP) of the University of Hong Kong in January 2011.
CUSUP was established in 1980 and renamed as the Centre of Urban Planning and Environmental Management (CUPEM) in
1991. On 1 July 2008, it was restructured with the Department of Urban Planning and Design (DUPAD) in the Faculty of
Architecture to continue the teaching of urban planning as well as related areas in housing management and transport. With the reorganization, CUSUP was able to continue its interdisciplinary research in urban studies and planning. The 2010-
11 year marks the 30th Anniversary of the founding of CUSUP.
Prof. TANG earned his MSc in Urban Planning with distinction from CUSUP in 1987. He received the Award from the ex-Centre Director, Prof. Peter HILLS, during the CUSUP 30th Anniversary Dinner held at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre on 7 January 2011.
