Or as I like to call them – ‘My Second Home’<\/p>\n

As we reach the start of the Easter Break, we find ourselves on the last stretch of our assignments and project reports while attempting to revise for the final examinations. For the Part 3 and Part 4 students, we ideally would have already finished or are in the midst of collecting the final data for our Individual Projects (IP) and Group Design Projects (GDP).<\/p>\n

For the past 2 and a half weeks, my groupmates and I have been in and out of the labs and hopping between various workshops to manufacture our solar desalinator system and test its various components. This gave me the chance to finally venture into places I have not been before, or at least not since the induction I attended at the start of Part 3 (as I did a research-based project for my IP), and inspired me to write a blogpost on the facilities I seem to have forgotten the university had.<\/p>\n

The cryogenics lab is the home base of my group’s GDP. In it lies two stools among other things and not much floor space. It may be filled and somewhat cluttered but that only means that there are many wonderful treasures just waiting to be found.<\/p>\n
