Research Assessment Exercise 2020

We are pleased to inform you that in the last Research Assessment Exercise (RAE) 2020*, the proportion of ISE's papers rated as 4 stars and 3 stars in aggregate has further increased compared with the 2014 exercise. Our research in Advanced Manufacturing Technology especially in ultraprecision machining was assessed as world leading. The highly acclaimed Space Technology area contributes significantly to the on-going Chinese Space Mission and industrial spin-out. The majority of research output in Product and Process Design; Engineering Management and Logistics are internationally excellent.

*The RAE 2020 is the sixth such exercise conducted by the University Grants Committee (UGC) to assess the research quality of the eight UGC-funded institutions in Hong Kong
