Observations
During our first day but not supposed to be the start of the event, which was the
symposium, I was impressed that everything was well planned although there have been a
slight technical difficulty when one of the speakers flashed a video clip. There was also
an exhibit which we visited during our vacant time. There was a new event that was
introduced by the UP ACES called the profiles which was a talk from a renowned civil
engineer. The Lab tour was as well organized where students were divided into groups
and the discussion was simultaneous. The CE quiz was intended for selected students but
we were informed that participants from the school weren’t able to make it to the finals.
There was just a slight difficulty that we encountered and it was the food served. We
weren’t satisfied with the quantity which made us look for food in faraway places.
Symposium
The Open Laboratory Tour is a series of instruments presented to the students for
them to know devices for different civil engineering fields such as the transportation and
environmental engineering, water resources engineering, surveying engineering,
geotechnical engineering, and structural engineering.
Overall, I would say that attending the NCES 2015 was a useful and momentous
experience because aside from learning different engineering practical applications, I was
able to visit UP Diliman for the first time. I suggest that students from our department to
attend the annual event. And because I see its relevance, I will try to attend the
conference again in the future in my personal capacity.
