The Faculty has achieved a remarkable milestone this year, with 18 projects successfully receiving the General Research Fund (GRF), breaking the Faculty’s previous record. The funded projects span across our Departments, with nine from CBS, five from CHC, and four from ENGL. The total funding amount awarded exceeds HK$11 million, highlighting our commitment to advancing research and academic excellence. Additionally, the Early Career Scheme (ECS) have funded two projects from CBS and CHC of the FH Departments.
Under the Research Grants Council, GRF aims to supplement universities’ research support to researchers who have achieved or have the potential to achieve excellence. The ECS, introduced in 2012/13, is intended to nurture junior academics. The assessment criteria include the scientific and scholarly merit of the proposal, originality, potential for social, cultural or economic application, and more.
