The School is thrilled to announce the launch of the Master of Science in Vision Science and Innovation (MScVSI) programme in September 2025, and its online application is now open.
This pioneering programme offers a unique opportunity for professionals in healthcare, biomedical engineering, computer science, and related disciplines to pursue advanced education in interdisciplinary and innovative vision science. It addresses the growing importance of developing cutting-edge technologies for enhancing vision and eye care, as well as advancing instrumentation for the ophthalmic and healthcare industry. The programme provides an excellent platform for building networks and collaborations among students from diverse academic backgrounds, encouraging the exchange of creative ideas and best practices, and facilitating research and development partnerships.
This 31-credit programme is available in 1-year full-time or 2-year part-time study mode. It comprises a 24-credit coursework component (including 15 credits of compulsory subjects and 9 credits of elective subjects), a 6-credit research project component, and a 1-credit Academic Integrity and Ethics (AIE) component. Optional non-credit bearing internships are available. Please visit our webpage to learn more about the curriculum and admissions.
The online application is now open. We strongly encourage early applications, as the admission process is conducted on a rolling basis and there are limited admission slots available. Shortlisted candidates will be invited for interviews.

The Information Seminar for this programme will be held on 15 October 2024 between 7-8 pm, available in both online and face-to-face formats (Venue: R501). Interested candidates are invited to register for the seminar at: https://polyu.hk/oDHAc.
