It’s been an honour to graduate from the Electronic and Information Engineering (EIE)* degree programme. The invaluable lessons I learned from all the professors, instructors and tutors greatly benefited me, as did the all-rounded facilities and support of the department.
An integrated project in the curriculum provided us with an opportunity to learn electronics. I had a chance to assemble a robotic car and programme it to track a line and complete various tasks. This project equipped me with solid knowledge of electronic components, embedded systems and programming skills.
It is very exciting to reach the final year, when a range of elective subjects are available. These include topics like computer vision, cloud computing and network security, which are highly related to modern technologies like AI, AWS and TLS, to name a few.
In addition to the technical foundations that this course provided, I had the opportunity to collaborate with talents from other fields. For example, my multidisciplinary manufacturing project required students from different fields to work collaboratively, and my multidisciplinary final-year project required students from different fields to work collaboratively on a larger-scale and more challenging project.
With the technical knowledge gained and all-rounded training received from EIE, I feel well-prepared to face the era of the metaverse.

Studying in the BEng(Hons) in Electronic and Information Engineering (EIE) programme has increased and widened my knowledge in EIE. The Major subjects have strengthened my knowledge about electricity and programming. Also, the elective subjects are categorized into 4 major areas, namely “Circuits and Systems”, “Telecommunication and Mobile”, “Information Security” and “Information Technology and Multimedia”. Students can choose to study elective subjects from any of these areas to uncover their interests and develop their talents. Besides, the EIE Department provides many space and opportunities for students to practice our skills and enrich our learning experience. For example, I joined the One-year Internship Scheme arranged by the EIE Department and worked in an RFID company as a student intern participating in a research project. These experience has trained up my technical skills and broadened my horizon. It has also deepened my interest to pursue further study and become a research student. Now, I am very grateful that I have become a Ph.D. research student and continue my life-long study in the EIE profession.
