OREPA, Old Royalists Engineering Professionals’ Association, instigated on Sunday the 23rd of November, 2014, is the most recent addition to professional bodies under the Royal College Union. A large number of engineers, architects and other professionals in allied fields gathered to bring this organization about and through it, serve the Alma mater.

Old Royalists in engineering professions have recognized 5 channels to give back to their Alma mater:

• ▪ Promote and provide career guidance to the students.
• ▪ Promote engineering related professions among students and school leavers.
• ▪ Share latest trends/ knowledge/ practices/ issues in engineering related fields.
• ▪ Provide scholarships and financial assistance in engineering related education.
• ▪ Support initiatives/ activities of membership, Royal College Union and its affiliated associations.

In addition to those constitutionally sated objectives, OREPA, as a congregation of technical experts in many facets of engineering and related fields, expect to empower this master plan towards sustainability, sharing their prowess to uplift each focus area including sustainable air, water, soil and bio diversity, sustainable energy, sustainable manufacturing and production, sustainable construction, sustainable agriculture and fisheries and sustainable transportation and tourism.

More importantly, OREPA will open up a reservoir of knowledge, technical expertise and material support in the fields of engineering, architecture and related fields for the benefit of the College and students. Based on these broader objectives, OREPA is looking forward to become a key stakeholder of the Royal College, continuously working towards the betterment of students and the Alma mater.

Old Royalists Engineering Professionals’ Association was formed under the patronage of Royal College Union. OREPA is a gathering of old Royalist Engineers, Architects, and Quantity Surveyors and other engineering related professionals.
