In particular, the Ocean Environment Conservation Research Team received the Third Prize and the Aqua Technology Special Award funded by King Abdulaziz of Saudi Arabia and the Genius and Innovation Foundation. This is the second time Pui Ching students won an award for Macao in the international arena.  Congratulations to our students! 

The success of our students is also attributed to the help of their teachers and parents, the S.A.R. government’s attention to education, the organization of the Education and Youth Affairs Bureau, the support of the Science and Technology Development Foundation, and the professional guidance of the University of Macao. Many thanks to all parties involved in making the success of our students possible!
