IVE Engineering Students Triumph at the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Hong Kong Section Student Design Competition 2025
Apr 2025

A team of five students from the Higher Diploma in Mechanical Engineering at IVE has proudly won the championship at the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Hong Kong Section Student Design Competition 2025, held on April 13. This year's competition, themed  "Harvesting the Sun and Wind" attracted numerous teams from various local universities.

In this contest, participants had to design and build a remotely controlled vehicle capable of collecting and utilizing solar and/or wind energy to transport weights within a limited timeframe. The IVE Engineering team exhibited remarkable innovation and exemplary teamwork, successfully transporting over three times the weight of their competitors, securing the championship title.

This achievement is a testament to the continuous enhancement of technical skills by our IVE engineering students throughout the design and hands-on processes. They not only learned to apply theoretical knowledge in practical scenarios but also engaged in thoughtful consideration of myriad improvement strategies, which are essential for aspiring engineers. Furthermore, inspired by the competition theme, the participating teams gained an in-depth understanding of renewable energy applications and demonstrated the potential to bring their designs to life, offering creative solutions for future transportation technologies.
