Embarking on a New Journey to Research Excellence

Dear Engineering RPg students,

You might have these questions come to mind: 

  • What am I going to attain? A degree? Knowledge? Career prospects? Friendship?
  • How can I become a full-fledged professional after graduation?
  • How can I better equip myself as an outstanding researcher?
  • How to get a breakthrough?...

You are not the only one.

Traditionally, RPg students might think studying means individual learning, doing research on his/her own discipline only. It could be a limited and individual experience. With a view to creating a diverse and enriching experience for Engineering RPg students, Research Student Centre of Faculty of Engineering will launch a series of research-based and non-research-based activities, aim at:

  • instilling a culture which embraces a dynamic learning and research environment,
  • fostering interdisciplinary research collaborations,
  • nurturing high-impact and innovative ideas exchange,
  • promoting entrepreneurship,
  • building strong networks,
  • facilitating lifelong research and personal development, and
  • creating an enjoyable research atmosphere with peer support.

Excited to know more? Please come to join the event, with details below:
