Aims and Characteristics

Acquire a Major with a Secondary Major degree in 4 years

This programme is a brand new Bachelor of Science programme of The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU). It cultivates students with knowledge spanning the disciplines of Physics and their chosen Secondary Major (AIDA or IE). By combing the strengths of the two fields, graduates will be ready to take on future challenges and excel in the contemporary workplace.

Students enrolled on the Physics X Secondary Major programmes follow a common curriculum in the first year before they choose either AIDA or IE in Year Two, according to their own preference. They will graduate with one of the following degrees upon successful completion of the corresponding graduation requirements:

• BSc (Hons) in Physics with a Secondary Major in Artificial Intelligence and Data Analytics*
• BSc (Hons) in Physics with a Secondary Major in Innovation and Entrepreneurship*

*JUPAS code: JS3030

4年時間同步完成主修及副主修課程

本課程為香港理工大學(PolyU)全新理學士課程，旨在培養學生在物理主修，以及相應副主修的跨學科知識。同學可選擇人工智能及數據分析(AIDA)，或創新及創業(IE)作為副主修科目。學生在畢業時將擁有兩大領域的優勢，為戰勝未來挑戰做好準備，以能在現今職場環境中脫穎而出。

報讀物理及副主修課程的學生，將於首年修讀共同核心課程，到了二年級時再根據自己的喜好選讀AIDA或IE。學生在完成相應的畢業要求後，將可在畢業時獲授以下其中一個學位：

• 物理學(榮譽)理學士副主修人工智能及數據分析*

• 物理學(榮譽)理學士副主修創新及創業*

*大學聯招課程編號: JS3030

成就未來創科CEO
PolyU 全新學士課程

包含兩大領域 - 物理及人工智能及數據分析(AIDA) 或物理及創新及創業(IE)，靈活應對未來改變。

BSc (Hons) in Physics with a Secondary Major in Artificial Intelligence & Data Analytics (AIDA)

Learning Outcomes

The rapid advances of Artificial Intelligence (AI) have far-reaching impacts on our lives, ranging from mobile apps, smart home systems and health-monitoring devices to industrial process optimisation. AI is intimately linked to physics in various ways, and seamless collaboration between physics and AI enables accurate observations of the environment and realistic formulation of solutions. Physics principles can be deployed to optimise AI components, facilitating the discoveries of critical workflows and parameters, as well as enhancing the training of AI systems. Conversely, AI plays a pivotal role in modern physics research by rapidly screening potential solutions, thereby saving resources needed for experimental studies.

The Physics X AIDA programme is tailored to students with interests in both physics and AI. With a strong emphasis on applications, students are exposed to both fundamental and applied physics topics in addition to the principal theories of AI. The fusion of these two disciplines throughout the curriculum allows students to consolidate their learning, providing them with a competitive edge in their future careers.

Distinguish Features of PHYSICS X AIDA

Multidisciplinary nature

The combination of physics and AI provides graduates with a robust skillset suited to a wide range of career paths, such as innovation, health care and postgraduate studies.

An application-oriented approach
