At the same occasion, we also bid farewell to the long servicing Senior Technical Officer, Mr C Y Cheng, who served the Department and the University for 36 years and will retire by end of November this year. 

Our achievements and successes are only possible because of their dedication and professionalism. Our heartfelt thanks to all of them!

Long Servicing EE Staff 2021

Professor Christian Wagner, Provost and Chair Professor of Social Media, was delighted to witness the commencement of phase five of the joint laboratory programme and mentioned that "The EE department at CityU is merely one component in this partnership. The strength of the network arises from the excellent joint research and innovation activities with the now 28 partner organisations. Networks are strong, resilient, and create exponential benefits for their participants. This is the essence of success of the CityU EE Joint Lab."

Since its establishment in 2019, the CityU EE Joint Lab Programme has connected with a total of 28 CityU EE Joint Lab Partners. A series of cooperative and technical projects have been/will be launched with these partners. For example, Compass Technology has arranged a student internship programme and has invited university professors to discuss research projects. Intel Co., Ltd. has arranged FPGA online training for CityU EE students. Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) and Joint Universities Computer Centre held an artificial intelligence lecture and invited university students to participate. Pong Yuen Group has donated NVIDIA JETSON Nano computing platforms for organizing artificial intelligence training classes to allow undergraduates and graduate students to participate in AI learning. United Microelectronics Center (Hong Kong) arranged lectures with professors from EE and deepened the joint research with CityU.

There was active discussion about boosting the publicity of EE locally and globally, recruitment and nurturing of quality students and fostering closer tie with the industry and government. With their visionary and constructive advices, the Department would continue to excel in teaching and research.

To let the community know about the importance and values of the work of the researchers and their contribution to society, RGC has been organizing regular public lectures to introduce to the public the achievements of the researchers. At the talk, Prof Chan talked about the development of antennas for modern wireless communications by his antenna research team. You may click HERE to view the video of the talk.

We began with a one-hour workshop where participating students were introduced to basic concepts in designing AI and IoT applications in our daily lives. The students learnt about how object recognition software works, and wrote simple software that recognizes object from images. After the workshop, the students were treated to a Laboratory Tour featuring the teaching facilities and projects within CityU-EE. We concluded with an informal conversation/Q&A among high-school students, EE undergraduate students and EE professors.

In the Information Session, the Admission Tutors Dr Leanne Chan and Dr Alex Wong introduced to the students and teachers about the department and its programmes, admission information and the discipline prospects. In addition, sharing was done enthusiastically by our current EE students on their University life and different learning experiences.

It was a fantastic time to chit chat and relax under the beauty of nature before gearing up for preparation of the final examination. This good physical exercise rounded up with much laughter and sweat.

Thanks to the participating companies, our students were informed a clear picture of the career opportunities, prospects and development in the respective companies and in the industry. Students were excited by the job opportunities and the challenges ahead.

The meeting with EE faculty and staff was held on 26 October 2021. Different topics on University strategies and development were touched on. The exchanges were meaningful and valued by our staff.
