To begin, Mr Ian Huang, Founder and CEO of Digital Transaction Limited, was invited to share with us what soft skills really mean to professionals in the real-world workplace in his talk titled “How Engineers Could Shape The Future”.

For Final Year Project (FYP) Competition, a total of 32 projects entered the semi-final which was a poster session. All semi-finalists were enthusiastic and professional in introducing their innovative and novel ideas in their project works. Six of them were immediately selected after the semi-final to compete in the final round held on the same day for Gold, Silver, Bronze and Merit Prizes.

The dramatic development of the innovations- and digital-driven industry in Qianhai, where gigantic tech firms such as Kingdee and Huawei are situated, is something EE students must not miss out in terms of paving the way of future career development. EE department would like to offer different opportunities to our EE students to have a chance to explore and learn more about the world high tech environment.

It was so exciting and happy that over 300 students and professors met and greeted on the days. Apart from different informative sessions to let students know more about the Department, the majors or programmes related matters, student learning support and graduate career outlook, lunch gatherings were arranged for students to meet and chat with all our professors. What a nice start! May the youngsters flourish and enjoy studying EE.

The Department partnered with four overseas universities for the Summer Exchange Programme this year. They offered EE-related courses along with company visits, local field trips and cultural activities for our 50 EE students. In parallel, we ran our on-campus-residential summer programme during 5 July 2019 – 10 August 2019 to receive 57 overseas students of our exchange partners. Themed “Remote Controlled Land Hovercraft”, the training was conducted on combined lecture-laboratory basis.

The events attracted over 40 undergraduate students.
