The Head of Department of Electrical Engineering, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Professor Tam Hwa-yaw, and the Managing Director of HK Electric, Mr. Wan Chi-tin, signed a “Memorandum of Understanding” (MOU) on November 30, 2015, which provides a framework for both sides to fully utilize their expertise in power engineering by applying it in teaching and research with the aim to groom more engineering talents in Hong Kong.
The MOU will further strengthen cooperation between the HK Electric and Department of Electrical Engineering, PolyU, in the areas of research and development. Under the MOU, HK Electric will assign experienced engineers to co-teach the Master’s subject and provide guidance in undergraduates’ final year projects, as well as offer site visits / appreciations to their electric power systems and equipment.
Through this strong partnership with HK Electric Institute, we hope students will be able to cope with the practical needs, expand their skill set, and further develop their professional career in the power engineering industry.
