JuliaCHEN Meng Pei
The supportive environment of the Department of Building and Real Estate (BRE), PolyU nurtured my drive for excellence. I truly enjoyed my study in BRE which grounded me a solid foundation to launch my professional career. The exchange programme to the UK enriched my overseas experience. With the guidance of my supervisor from BRE, my final year dissertation was awarded the Best Individual Dissertation of the Hong Kong Institution of Engineers (HKIE). Also, I won the national Construction Innovation Competition in Beijing upon my graduation. My active participation in extracurricular activities, such as the English Debate Team and the International School Ambassador Scheme enabled my all-round development, which in return brought me the honor as the Outstanding Student of both of the Faculty of Construction and Environment and the BRE in 2012.
My graduation in 2013 opened up a new chapter to me. I joined one of the biggest and most challenging project that Hong Kong has undertaken at the XRL West Kowloon Terminus. I was selected as the HKIE President's Protege in 2015 and the Council Member for the Hong Kong Construction Association’s Young Members Society in 2017.
I was awarded the MIT Angela Leong Fellowship, the MIT Leaders for Global Operations (LGO) Fellowship, the HKIE Young Engineers Scholarship, and the LGO Merit Scholarship. With the awards, I currently further my studies in a unique Engineering-MBA dual degree programme at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
I am grateful that BRE empowered me to be part of the thriving Hong Kong construction scene, and I can’t wait to find out what my next big challenge is!
StevenWONG Ming Chun
Graduated from the Department of Building and Real Estate (BRE) in 2014, I started my career as a project management trainee in Hip Hing Construction Group, one of the leading contractors in Hong Kong.
I am grateful for the all-round training and eye-opening exposure in my 3-year study in BRE. It offered me solid technical knowledge and more importantly, I developed the ‘engineering’ mind-set that is crucial to a professional in the competitive construction industry. On top of the comprehensive courses, a large number of opportunities were provided for my personal growth, for example, study tour, exchange programme, internship, mentorship and industrial conferences, etc. I was offered a place in a one-semester exchange programme in Loughborough University, the UK. This remarkable experience has widened my horizons and further enabled me to be competent in the challenging work environment.
‘Building Engineering’ is a challenging profession. I do believe choosing BRE for a comprehensive study will be a great start if you share the same passion with us to build a better home.

2009 Graduate with MPhil (Cambridge)2008 Graduate with BSc (Hons) in Property Management
I strongly believe that the undergraduate course in BRE, PolyU has raised my strong interest in the real estate industry and equipped me with a solid foundation for my postgraduate study and career. At the same time, I understand that property and finance do contribute a large part to Hong Kong’s economy. That’s why I chose to further my study in this field. The one-year study ‘Master of Philosophy in Real Estate Finance’ in Cambridge University has widened my horizon, not only academically, but all round.
Now, I have been working in the Investment Department of Savills, providing a wealth of expertise for those active in the commercial real estate market, whether it is for investment, redevelopment or owner-occupation needs. This includes the acquisition and disposal of properties ranging from individual investments to property portfolios, of any size. It is quite an interesting and challenging job for me.
PatrickLEUNG Chin Pak
I treasured the opportunities given by PolyU and the Department of BRE to join an exchange programme to study in the Architecture Department of Deakin University in Melbourne, Australia, for about 6 months. This allowed me to broaden my horizons and extended my international network. This definitely benefited me a lot when I worked as a project manager and had to hold various conference calls with client representatives in different places.
Besides, with the support of my department, I was able to join the Preferred Graduate Programme in both 2007 and 2008 to work in Nanjing Construction Bank and the largest developer in Xi Shan for my summer internship. Working in a state-owned company and experiencing the working environment in China were crucial to my career development and life.

Krystal LEE Yeuk Ying
2011 Graduate with BSc (Hons) in Surveying2010 The Most Outstanding PolyU Student2009 Higher Diploma in Building Technology and Management (Surveying)
Studying for a BSc (Hons) in Surveying of PolyU was great fun and intellectually challenging. Now working as part of a professional cost planning team and facing a substantial volume of designs waiting to be translated into various cost plans within deadlines, I very much appreciate what the Department of Building and Real Estate (BRE) offered me. Taught by highly experienced and approachable academic staff, at BRE I was not only equipped with a wide range of professional construction knowledge, but also gained practical skills such as critical analysis, presentation and communication skills, and global and business awareness. These skills are equally useful in my work. The Mentorship Scheme also laid a solid foundation for me to build strong industry networking, which has proved to be invaluable in my career since graduation. The decision to spend my undergraduate years at BRE was the wisest choice I have ever made.
MariaLAU Nga Yi
2018 Graduate with BSc (Hons) in Surveying
Choosing the BSc (Hons) in Surveying is the best decision I have made in my life so far.
Surveying is a discipline that conflates construction technology, economics, finance and land administration as well as law; these skills are subsequently applied to the real estate market. The interdisciplinary training provided by BRE has got me where I am today. The courses offered by the department are genuinely practical yet academic enough to lead easily into further studies. I went on to study for an MPhil degree with the University of Cambridge immediately after my undergraduate degree. Moreover, I was also blessed by the vast variety of industry and international connections that PolyU and BRE have. Using these, I had the chance to explore the Hong Kong, Guangzhou and London real estate markets through a series of internships. The unfailing guidance and generous support I have received from the department are things I was not likely to find elsewhere.
BRE has empowered its graduates to become surveyors of integrity and professionalism. We are equipped to take on not only a specialist role in real estate markets but also a generalist role in many other disciplines, which is what I have decided to do. I am excited that I will shortly be taking up a new role with HSBC Private Banking as a Management Associate. While there, I will explore the realm of wealth and asset management and apply the soft skills and knowledge acquired from my surveying degree. Although I will be entering a completely new environment, I still feel secure and confident that my four years at PolyU have been more than well spent and have adequately prepared me for any challenges ahead.
I am heartily thankful to have read for the Surveying degree with PolyU. A successful programme enables its graduates to thrive, not only in the specific discipline they study, but also in society at large. I could never have imagined how far the BSc (Hons) Surveying degree would take me in my career. BRE was a platform that helped me unleash my potential. I truly look forward to seeing one day what I can give back to my Alma Mater.
