Li, Oi Kei Eunice - President

I am Eunice, a 3Y-Year 3 Chemical and Environmental Engineering (CEEV) student at HKUST. I am a local but I have been to New Zealand and Australia for high school and university. This has exposed me to many different cultures and I am happy to work with people from different nations.

 

I chose to study chemical engineering because I believe this is the most practical way to solve environmental problems at the origins, which are mostly related to industrial processes and factories. By applying concepts learnt from chemical engineering courses, energy can be used more efficiently and effectively, and zero waste production is no longer a dream.

 

After graduation, I hope to work in the environmental fields and contribute my knowledge and skills on making Hong Kong a better, more sustainable place for everyone to live in. In the next few years, I will also make for chartered environmental engineer.

My passion to explore new possibilities and contribute to the society initiated me to join the HKUST REDbird Award Program, a student leadership development program. As one of the founder members of AIChE-HKUST Student Chapter, I had opportunities to meet passionate Chemical Engineers and to work with a team of diverse background.

 

Concern for environment and the need to protect our Earth made me delve into the field of environment. I want to work as an environmental consultant in the future and put forth my best efforts in creating a sustainable world.

Man, Tak Ka Abraham - Vice-President

“Nothing is a waste of time if you use the experience wisely.”

 

This wonderful quote is my motto.

 

When I started my BEng in Chemical Engineering at the HKUST, I realized that the quote doesn’t just apply to the time dimension, but also the matters. The chief duty of chemical engineer is to turn virtually useless substances into something valuable and useful. Nothing is a waste of matter if you use the substance wisely.

 

My name is Abraham. Feel free to associate it with the great person in History and the prophet in the Bible. If I can share their wisdom, I do hope the wisdom can make our student chapter a stronger and more powerful community.

Being a university student for around one year, I did realize that education is merely a bridge that creates a link between us and the world. Being able to apply the knowledge that I learn to real life, enhancing the life quality of human beings, is the whole purpose of my academic study.

 

Therefore, I believe that chemical engineering is a perfect major for me. I am interested to know how chemical engineers see the world. In fact, chemical engineers generate products that are critical in human lives. Hence, assuring product qualities and safety, and be able to serve the public at best, is the vision of every chemical engineers. I am confident that the knowledge I learn about chemical engineering will not only bring me to a perfect future, but also help better the lives of others.

 

Beside my passion in helping other people, I am a person who like to extend my knowledge and study many other things. As an example, I am currently joining iGEM (International Genetically Engineered Machine) which is a worldwide synthetic biology competition where university students from around the world will share their synthetic biology projects and explain how those are applicable in daily lives. Hence, by studying synthetic biology and many things, I try to see things from different perspectives and integrate my whole knowledge to help me see the world better.

Thakur Garima - Program Secretary

Hi! My name is Garima, and I am a second-year undergraduate student studying Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering. I first found my love of chemistry in high school, when I got to lock myself all alone in a high-tech chemistry lab while researching for my IB extended essay. It only took a few ammonia spills and a mini-fire for me to realize that this was what I wanted to continue doing in college. This, coupled with my inner desire to make things that were useful and actually worked, led me to finally choose chemical engineering as my major.

 

 

As an executive committee member of AIChE-HKUST, I hope to contribute to the growth of chemical engineering, both as a major for students and as an area of interest accessible to all. I also hope to be able to benefit from this platform and integrate myself into the CBME community both inside and outside university.
