Our heartiest congratulations to our SIGHT Camper, student and Leader...Doris!

Doris is off to Geneva for her International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) traineeship this June! She joined us back in 2019 at SIGHT Camp, completing ENGG4930C and continued as a SIGHT Leader till now, and we're certain she'd be reaching new heights over in the Swiss Alps.

Putting the CAMP in SIGHT Camp!!! Ever since our first SIGHT Camp in 2015, we've never really managed to take our Campers camping. But this year, WE DID!!

It was a great chance for us all to get outdoors and enjoy nature at its best, and also for the Campers to get to know each other.

We are honoured to be mentioned by the Common Core Teaching Excellence Award 2021! What's more, we're also super chuffed that the students found their learning journey with us rewarding.

ENGG1300 - Design Thinking for Health Innovation is a common core course (which means anyone can enrol!) where you develop your own ideas into solutions. We'll be back this Fall Semester!
