PolyU Info Day, held on 12th October 2024, achieved remarkable success with a record-breaking visitor number of over 41,000. The Department of Land Surveying and Geo-Informatics (LSGI) received active participation from academic and supporting staff, students, and alumni, providing secondary school students, parents, and individuals with the latest information about the admission and academic programmes of LSGI.
Throughout the event, LSGI engaged visitors with a variety of informative activities, including booth consultations, admission talks for both Bachelor's (BSc) and Master's (MSc) programmes, alumni sharing sessions, thematic discussions by current students, and guided lab tours. Notably, over 230 participants attended the admission talks, while more than 120 individuals took part in the guided tours, reflecting a strong interest in our programmes.
During the two sessions of BSc admission talks, Ir Prof. Wallace LAI, Associate Head and Professor, and Dr Sissi CHEN, Deputy Programme Leader and Lecturer, provided in-depth insights into the curriculum and opportunities available within the LSGI programmes. Dr Xintao LIU and Dr Yang XU, programme leaders of MSc programmes, gave introduction on admission and characteristics of two master's degree programmes. Additionally, two young LSGI graduates shared their professional journeys, emphasizing the exciting career opportunities in the public and private sectors.
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to our alumni, Mr. Kwok Kam-Ngai, Sales and Support Engineer at RIEGL Asia Pacific Ltd, and Ms. Amelia Ng, Land Surveyor at the Lands Department, for their valuable contributions during the sharing BSc sessions. Their experiences provided prospective students with a real-world perspective on the diverse paths available within the field of land surveying and geo-informatics. Furthermore, LSGI student Sammy Chan delivered an engaging presentation during the Faculty of Construction and Environment (FCE) thematic talk, enriching the dialogue with insights from a current student’s viewpoint.
