A study tour to Japan was arranged for the champion team during the summer vacation to broaden their engineering knowledge.
A mini-exhibition was also set up in the venue for the finalists to display and demonstrate their projects. The exhibition attracted a lot of attention from the guests. They were amazed by the creative ideas of the students and highly appreciated their efforts and the quality of work. The Competition was considered to be a good channel in promoting students’ awareness on energy efficiency as well as arousing their interests in engineering.
