Department of Land Surveying and Geo-Informatics (LSGI) of The Hong Kong Polytechnic University and the Faculty of Land Science & Technology of China University of Geosciences (Beijing) (CUGB) have succeeded in acquiring a collaborative project under People’s Republic of China Ten Thousand People’s Scheme 2021 (萬人計劃) from Ministry of Education to promote and advance the undergraduate and master education, research interests as well as collaboration between the two universities. Prof. George LIU and Dr. Xiaolin ZHU officiated the online opening ceremony on behalf of LSGI on 2 Aug 2022.
The weeklong online seminars on 2 to 6 Aug 2022 covered public talks by Ir. Dr. Wallace Wai Lok LAI, Dr. Xiaolin ZHU, Dr. Xintao LIU, Dr. Shuo WANG, Dr. Wei YAO, Dr. Yang XU and Mr. Nelson CHAN from LSGI which attracted more than 2,800 audiences through Zoom and Bilibili. LSGI also took the change to introduce our BSc and MSc programmes.
The Ten Thousand People's Scheme provides experiential learning opportunities for students from the Mainland China and Hong Kong. Through short courses, research projects, internships, academic competitions, service learning activities and visits, the scheme seeks to promote exchanges between higher learning institutions of the two places and enhance their students’ understanding of the country.
On the last day, students from these two universities gave presentations on what they have learnt and gained in the past five days and shared their research projects.
With our deepest gratitude to CUGB, the scheme has provided a notably eye-opening experience to all the participants. After this fruitful journey, we look forward to exploring more collaborations with mainland professionals.
