Celebrating the successful merger of the Department of Electrical Engineering and the Department of Electronic and Information Engineering, the Inaugural Banquet of the newly formed Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering (EEE) was a grand affair, graced by the distinguished presence of PolyU Council Members, Senior Management, Chair Professors, and key executives from leading engineering firms in Hong Kong. The event not only commemorated the rich heritage of both departments but also marked the beginning of a new chapter filled with exciting possibilities and collaborations.
Under the guidance of Professor C.Y. Chung, the Head of the EEE Department, attendees were treated to a comprehensive overview of the Department’s educational, research, and knowledge transfer initiatives. The banquet served as a platform to honour former Heads of Department and alumni, acknowledging their contributions to the Department’s legacy.
Throughout the evening, guests were captivated by a series of engaging presentations, including a custom-made video depicting the Department’s history, a splendid Chinese painting symbolizing unity and progress, story-sharing between an alumnus and a current student and a delightful musical performance by talented students and a staff member. The event showcased students’ talents and promising futures as they embarked on their academic and professional paths.
