HKSQ Technical Visit to HKUST (Guangzhou)

HKSQ organized a technical visit to HKUST (Guangzhou) on 21^st Jul 2023. The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Guangzhou) (HKUST(GZ)) indeed is the realization of this ambition to transform education for the future, with its cross-disciplinary academic structure designed to complement the well-established disciplinary foundation at the Clear Water Bay campus. The University signed a tripartite agreement with the Guangzhou Municipal Government and Guangzhou University in 2018.

Our members saw swans and took photos for memory.

Then Prof. Tsung's student led us to visit the campus. The first location is Intelligent Control Centre. All campus information consolidated together for monitoring.

We took a group photo in front of the large control panel.

Then we visited Computational Media and Arts Laboratory (CMA Lab).

CMA comprises both art and technology, focusing on art creation and visual communication with advanced emerging technologies that across disciplines like art with augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR), AI-generated art, information art and design, and data visualization.

The student told us this image appear 3D image in your photo.

Then we went into the stage to feel the effect.

One of simulations is traveling inside human body.

We then visited the silent room.

We also visited the room like “interrogation room” that people in one room cannot see us in control room.

Then Ben and I try to go to the interrogation room.

After that we visited the library. I took a photo in the middle of the corridor.

Three beautiful ladies took a photo in that corridor.

Inside the library, Vincent tried the ergonomic chair.

When we left the library, we met another time of students visit the university. It is summer holiday! I took to members that it is like sales pipeline. Secondary school students are potential candidates of HKUST(GZ) in future.

And then we saw drone demonstration.

Robotic dog was demonstrated and very smart.

Finally, we visited the President floor to view the whole campus.

We took a group photo in front of the University brand.

Lastly, we went back to the lecture room and discussed with Prof. Fugee Tsung.

Dr. Jane Wong (Chairman, HKSQ) appreciated Prof. Fugee Tsung arrangement.

She represented HKSQ to present flag and 35^th anniversary book to Fugee.

After that Fugee introduced HKUST 2.0 Information Hub to us and how to facilitate the cross-discipline approach from different colleges and different hubs.

He also introduced Triple-i institute named Industrial Informatics and Intelligence Institute that would like to connect more with industry partners.

Triple-i inclused four areas and they are Industrial Big Data, IoT, Carbon Neutrality and Intelligence.

The leader teams of Triple-i are introduced.

At the end, we exchanged ideas with HKSQ members both of us from different industries.

We are appreciated Mr. Thomas Tsang drove us to Shenzhen Bay Port back to Hong Kong. It is a very good trip to HKUST(GZ).
