LSGI received delegations with 52 students and 5 teachers and staff from Wuhan and Tongji Universities during 30 July to 3 Aug 2018 to foster academic exchange and strengthen the collaborations between three universities.
The delegation included 22 undergraduate students from Wuhan University and 27 undergraduate and 3 postgraduate students from Tongji University. The weeklong study tour covered a public lecture by guest speaker from USA, six academic
lectures by academic staff of LSGI, culture exchange and sharing by students from LSGI, Wuhan and Tongji Universities, visits to PolyU’s House of Innovation, LSGI’s laboratories and facilities, Survey and Mapping Office, Lands Department of Hong Kong Government, City Gallery at Central and Tsing Ma Bridge. Prof. John Shi, Head of LSGI, gave an introduction of the department in the opening of study tour.
On the last day of study tour, students from these two universities gave presentations by groups on what they have learnt and gained in the visit and shared their research conducted before. Students enjoyed the study environment at PolyU a lot and all the lectures were very inspiring. Dr George Liu concluded that we hoped the visit not only brought them knowledge on academic, also memorable culture exchange experience to all the participants and valuable friendships amongst three universities. We look forward to more academic collaborations and exchanges between PolyU, Wuhan and Tongji Universities in the near future.
