It was transformed into virtual workshops this year due to the outbreak of COVID-19. The workshops held on 27 July 2020 attracted about 30 students from top universities in mainland China joining us. Apart from the introduction of the Department and the PhD programme, twelve 15-min research seminars presented by EE professors were arranged, covering topics in the area of Applied Electromagnetics, Optoelectronics, Electronics, Power, Nanotechnology, Biosystems, Networking, Wireless Communications, Computer Engineering and Control Systems. The discussion and exchange over the Zoom platform was lively. We look forward to having face-to-face exchange with these students at CityU when they join our PhD programme next year.
