Engineering with Extended Major

Computer Engineering

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE It covers a number of cross-disciplinary components beyond technical skills, such as design thinking, ethics, etc. Practical AI knowledge can be directly applied to your major such as Civil Engineering, Electronic Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, etc., and be an asset to your career development. Students are provided with two flexible pathways: the School-based Admissions Choice of Engineering with Extended Major in AI, or Department-based Admissions (excluding CSE and CPEG) with the opportunity to declare the Extended Major in AI at the end of their first year.

Computer Engineering merges hardware and software elements to create comprehensive computing systems. It blends electrical engineering principles with computer science techniques. The field encompasses the conceptualization, crafting, implementation, and use of computer technologies in various domains, covering everything from consumer electronics to communication networks.

The first of its kind in Hong Kong, the Extended Major framework allows students to combine a degree in engineering with additional study in emerging topics.

DIGITAL MEDIA AND CREATIVE ARTS It aims to equip students with technical skills to apply the latest computing and media technologies to the creation of digital media and arts, such as computer games, animation, wireless and mobile media, etc. At the end of their first year, students in any engineering major may choose to apply for the Extended Major in Digital Media and Creative Arts.

BEng in COMPUTER ENGINEERING The Computer Engineering Program focuses on the analysis, design, implementation, and utilization of computer systems from embedded microprocessors and notebook/desktop computers to supercomputers, as well as how they are integrated with other systems to meet the challenges of real-world applications. It bridges the gap between computer science and electronic engineering and offers students balanced training in both hardware and software skills by taking full advantage of the human resources and laboratory facilities of both the Department of Computer Science & Engineering and the Department of Electronic & Computer Engineering. It’s a well-integrated 2-in-1 program!

SUSTAINABILITY The new extended major introduces sustainability concepts across all disciplines, not only in engineering but also in science, business management, humanities, and social sciences, enabling students to develop solutions to societal and environmental issues. Except for ECE and CPEG, students may choose to apply for the Extended Major in Sustainability at the end of their first year.
