On Tuesday 27 May 2014, the Laing O'Rourke Centre for Systems Engineering & Innovation hosted a visit from 18 3rd year students studying in the field of building services engineering and 2 academic staff from the Department of Civil and Architectural Engineering, City University of Hong Kong.
"Our students are very grateful for this opportunity to learn the frontier technologies in building services energy efficiency"
– Ir Dr Eric Wai Ming Lee
Associate Professor
The visit formed part of the UK tour whereby the theme of the tour was 'The diversity of energy efficiency techniques for green buildings' and consisted of a seven day visit to universities, industry and green building sites. The aim of the tour was for the students to learn more about energy efficient techniques in UK. The students were very keen in particular to meet with Professor Fisk, Dr James Keirstead and Ms Sarah Noye as they were aware of the Centre's work regarding building performance optimisation.
Associate Professor Ir Dr Eric Wai Ming Lee also provided the Centre with an opportunity to learn from colleagues in Hong Kong when he presented on 'Ahead prediction of building cooling load by a fully autonomous kernel machine'.
