With the sponsorship and support from the Innovation and Technology Commission of the HKSAR Government, HSBC and The Hong Kong Federation of Youth Groups, 47 PolyU students have been awarded the Innovation and Technology Scholarships since 2011. The awardees were selected on the basis of their outstanding academic performance, passion in innovation and technology, good communication skills and all-roundness.
A maximum of $150,000 will be made available to each of the awardees, enabling them to attach in the world’s top institutes in overseas or Chinese mainland, and with a chance to experience living in an academic environment outside Hong Kong. Each awardee will be matched with a well-known awardee as a mentee receiving precious guidance in their learning process. In addition, the Scholarships will also provide awardees with the opportunities to take internship locally and make use of what they have learned to apply to local community works. The awardees will be able to take advantage of the valuable experience gained in the coming year to bring more contributions to the future society and scientific community.
