The EMSD, in collaboration with five secondary schools, has recently concluded its pilot STEM education programme “Witty Bear Campus Tour – EMbrace Smart Living in Daily Life”, with the graduation ceremony cum the E&M Youth Development Committee (the Committee) launching ceremony held on 6 July. Conducted in an interesting and interactive manner, the eight-month pilot programme enhanced students’ E&M knowledge and aroused their interest in joining the E&M industry in the future through various activities such as the Smart Living Talk, Design Thinking Workshop and Prototype Making, as well as Learning Outcome Sharing Exhibition.
To nurture young talent and pursue the Government strategies in the Youth Development Blueprint, the EMSD has especially established the Committee, which aims to strengthen communication with young people and deepen their understanding of the E&M industry, so as to encourage more young people to join the industry. Mr. Pang Yiu-hung, Director of Electrical and Mechanical Services, said in his speech that the EMSD has always been sparing no effort to promote public education and youth development. Through the establishment of the Committee, the EMSD seeks to cultivate positive attitudes and vibes in the young people and equips its young colleagues to open up more innovative development opportunities for the Department and the E&M industry.
This year marks the 75th anniversary of the establishment of the EMSD. We will organise the EMSD 75th Anniversary Ceremony cum Fun Day between November and December to share with the public, together with the E&M industry, our development, achievements and contribution to society over the years. Members of the public are welcome to join the event.
