Driven by scientific pursuits
Professor Huang Mingxin of the Department of Mechanical Engineering and Dr Luo Ping of Department of Computer Science are two of the many young innovators at the HKU Faculty of Engineering. Their time spent abroad shaped their scientific research career but it is their commitment to fundamental research that led to their notable breakthroughs.
Poor indoor ventilation plays a role in transmission of COVID-19
Professor Yuguo Li, Chair Professor of Building Environment, and his team at the Department of Mechanical Engineering, conducted a series of epidemiological and environmental studies on three important COVID-19 outbreak cases in Mainland China and Tokyo, and revealed that poor air ventilation plays a key role in its spread in indoor environments.
Raising the level of water technology
In a high density, highly urbanised city like Hong Kong, wastewater treatment is of the prime importance to ensure public health. In recent years local research in the area has been stepped up, resulting in advanced technology that yields diverse benefits. Professor Li Xiao-yan, Professor Kaimin Shih, Professor Zhang Tong and Dr May Chui of the Department of Civil Engineering are among the forerunners in global research in water science and technology.

Anniversary Community Foundation FinTech Academy (HKU-SCF FinTech Academy) is established to steer FinTech development and groom world-class talents.
Ultrastrong steel: A big step closer to industrialising
The Super Steel project led by Professor Huang Mingxin at the Department of Mechanical Engineering, with collaborators at the Lawrence Berkeley National Lab (LBNL), has made important breakthrough in its new super D&P steel (produced using a new deformed and partitioned method) to greatly enhance its fracture resistance while maintaining super strong in strength for advanced industrial applications.
A novel high-speed microscope to capture brain neuroactivities
Dr Kevin Tsia (Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering) and his collaborators at UC Berkeley offer a novel solution with their super high-speed microscope - two-photon fluorescence microscope, which has successfully recorded the millisecond electrical signals in the neurons of an alert mouse.
Asian Engineering Deans’ Summit 2020
The Faculty will be hosting the Asian Engineering Dean’ Summit (AEDS) 2020 in May 2021, inviting education leaders and engineering deans in Asian-Pacific cities to share best practices in education for addressing changing demands of the society.
