BST students showcase creativity in building and construction

The Division of Building Science and Technology (BST) showcased more than 60 final-year projects at BuiltExpo 2011 on 8–9 April at City University of Hong Kong (CityU).

Ms Eva Cheng Yu-wah, Secretary for Transport and Housing, HKSAR, Professor Arthur Ellis, Provost of CityU, and Dr Paul Ho Hok-keung, Head of BST, officiated at the opening.

The theme of the Expo, “Vision for a Better City”, aimed at showing how better designed buildings can improve the living environment. BST students—from architectural studies, building services engineering, construction engineering and management, and surveying—developed projects that demonstrated their critical thinking as well as technical, problem solving, communication and team work skills.
