Students are required to attend the STEM Engineering Week Opening Ceremony on 31 Aug 2015 (8.45am to 1.30pm) at HCI SRC Lecture Threatre. On 1 Sept and 2 Sept 2015The focus is Using Science to create a more sustainable environment and future. Students will be visiting 3 places, namely, Tuas Incineration plant, Oh Chin Huat Hydropnics farm and Lee Kong Chian Natural Museum. At Tuas incineration plant, students will explore and learn the works behind how Singapore uses technology to convert wastes into usable electrical energy to help power Singapore.At Oh Chin Huat, students will be able to understand the use of technology on creation of food that is both sustainable and productive.At Lee Kong Chian Natural Museum, students will embark on a Marine ecology workshop, where they will be introduced to the marine ecosystem, with emphasis on the coral reefs and mangroves of Singapore. There will also be opportunities to handle actual museum specimens such as the knobby sea star, cowrie, stingray, horseshoe crab, and nudibranch.STEM D Course 3D Printing Design Workshop(31 Aug 2015 - half day (9am to 1.30pm)1 Sep 2015 Full day (9am to 4pm) 2 Sep 2015 half day (9am to 1.30pm)No of vacancies: 10 students
