Film crew visiting the engineering division
Today the Engineering Division was visited by a film crew, accompanied by Tim Utton, deputy director of communications, Nottingham, UK (see picture above, considering its quality it does not look like I have got a future in the film or photography business). They were filming the engineering area and our newly fitted teaching laboratories. Furthermore, they interviewed Dr Kuan Yoong Chan, our Head of Division.
According to the communications department the filming aims at producing an overseas DVD for the University of Nottingham “to promote and celebrate the research, teaching and learning taking place on the China and Malaysia campuses“
Personally I was not involved in this event, but I managed to sneak in and take a few snapshots whilst the crew was filming Kuan Yoong. Afterwards I became an interviewer myself “grilling” him about how he felt being questioned by the film team. Here is what Kuan Yoong said:
“It was a nice experience to be interviewed in front of the camera, I just hope I have covered all the relevant points for Engineering. The highlight of the interview was when I made the point about China being the factory of the world, which we all know. Let’s hope next time they come to film us, sustainability or sustainable manufacturing will start to be a part of that world factory.“

[...] In that context, the engineering division at UNNC is also featured, which is the result of the camera team’s visit last year. [...]
