Engineering Abroad
The laws of math and physics may be universal but how engineering is practiced varies around the world. Taking your engineering studies abroad will illustrate how theory is applied to make better systems and designs that work to solve problems in an international context. You'll expand the necessary soft skills like cross-cultural communication, teamwork, and leadership that will help you become a standout engineer. Learn how engineers in other parts of the world are contributing to industries like energy, healthcare, electronics, and manufacturing in Hong Kong. Gain practical experience devising solutions for waste water management in an environmental engineering lab in Chile.
