The PolyU Summer Programme 2022 was successfully held on 9 Aug 2022. It attracted about 50 students from different secondary schools to join this programme to learn more about civil and environmental engineering. Participants were split into groups to join an interactive workshop – Plastic Bridge Challenge, which involves design, fabrication and testing of a bridge structure. They were given one hour to build a bridge in groups of five with plastic sticks only and the groups tested their bridges by adding loads until the structure collapsed. Students were also able to visit the Geology Laboratory and Noise and Safety Laboratory near the end of the programme.
