Electronic Circuit and Projects Laboratory
The Electronic Circuits and Projects (ECP) Laboratory is a cozy corner of the campus that has been supporting the hands-on learning experience of first- to third -year courses for EE majors. It serves as a hub for our undergraduate students who are new to electronics, providing them with the opportunity to build their very first circuit and discover the excitement of electronics. Over the years, the ECP Laboratory has witnessed the growth of numerous students from electronics novices to application-driven product designers. Equipped with all the necessary instrumentation hardware, it also supports our signature GE course, namely, GE1354 Introduction to Electronic Design.
Machining Laboratory
The Machining Laboratory provides support for teaching and research activities, as well as offering advice and assistance to other sections within EE department as needed. The laboratory is equipped with a variety of machining equipment, including lathe, milling machine, drilling machine, and wire cut machine. The wire cut machine is used to fabricate precision parts for experiments, such as antenna patches and optical fixtures. Additionally, jigs and fixtures are designed for various experiments and research projects. In terms of teaching, technical support is provided for the course EE3070 Design Project and competition teams. In the safety course, students and staff are taught how to use hand tools and are provided with basic mechanical knowledge, while also emphasizing the importance of safety measures and alerting them to potential hazards.
Optoelectronics, Electronics, Nanotechnology, and Biosystems Laboratory
The laboratory mainly supports the research team of Optoelectronics, Electronics, Nanotechnology, and Biosystems. The laboratory hosts state-of-the-art equipment for advanced micro-/nano-processing of photonic devices, optical sensors, biomedical research, and so on. It supports also the activities of the Centre for Biosystems, Neuroscience, and Nanotechnology. The laboratory provides excellent support for running and maintaining the cleanroom in training new users.
ROBOCON Contest Team Laboratory
ROBOCON Contest Team Laboratory is a space where students from different departments collaborate to design and build robots for an annual competition among Hong Kong's tertiary institutions. Equipped with various tools, resources, and expert guidance, the lab supports every step from prototyping to implementation. This multi-disciplinary environment helps students tackle real-world challenges while sharpening problem-solving, teamwork, and leadership skills. Beyond technical development, the lab fosters innovation, creativity, and hands-on experience, preparing students for future engineering careers.
It’s more than a workspace — it’s a hub for learning, collaboration, and pursuing a shared passion for robotics.
Underwater Robotics Team Laboratory
Underwater Robotics Team Laboratory aims at providing a co-working space for CityU students to achieve international recognition in global and national competitions, to encourage cross-disciplinary working environment, and ultimately to apply what we have learned in CityU to solve real-life problems using Robotics/ AI / Electronics Mathematics technology and knowledge. Every year, the robots developed in this lab will join the MATE ROV competition, the Singapore AUV Challenge and other competitions. With the strong support from CityU including College of Engineering, Department of EE, CS, MNE, BME, MSE, SDSC and SDS, we are committed and confident to advance our work and to gain recognitions around the world.
