SIPS is a joint campaign organized by government bureaux/departments and other organisations to promote their scientific work and application of technology to the provision of services for the general public. Dr Cheung’s talk, which attracted around 200 audiences attended, focused on the science and engineering foundational knowledge for computing, as well as the recent blooming of artificial intelligence (AI) around the world.

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.

Thanks to the active participation of EE staff and students, the wonderful singing competition allowed the EE community to taste the different versions of CityU Anthem “Beyond Boundaries”. The quiz game also let us to know more the recent development of CityU and EE. The singing performance by EE professors and students with the companion of play of guitar led to the climax of the night.

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.

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.

The Chairman presented updates on the development of teaching, research, and industrial collaborations of the Department in the past several months. Examination arrangements for Semester A, PhD admission, and laboratory safety and relocation were also highlighted and discussed.

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.

Long Servicing EE Staff 2021

Please find below details of the Zoom lecture that is now open to all EE students: 

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.
