On June 6th, 2018, Led by Prof. Shi, head of the Department of Land Surveying and Geo-Informatics (LSGI), a delegation of PolyU visited the School of Remote Sensing and Information Engineering at the Wuhan University. The visit aims to strengthen the collaboration between the two universities/departments on teaching and research. On behalf of PolyU, Prof. Shi signed two memorandums with Wuhan University to facilitate student exchange for undergraduate and master programs. Meanwhile, a memorandum for a Joint Spatial Information Research Laboratory (SIRL) is signed by the two sides to foster research collaborations on Geographic Information Science (GISc) and Remote Sensing.
Prof. Jianya Gong, Dean of the School of Remote Sensing and Information Engineering, directed the signing ceremony. During the ceremony, the officials from the two universities discussed the student exchange programs. The two departments also planned to offer courses in summer 2019 to better accommodate students’ interests in trendy topics and emerging
technologies (e.g., big data analytics).
At the end of the signing ceremony, Prof. Jianya Gong and Prof. Shi exchanged souvenirs on behalf of the two universities. The visit strengthen the long-term collaborations between the two sides that would benefit teaching and research of both universities in the future.
