With financial support from CityUHK, Issac Ho, a third-year student from CSCI’s flagship GREAT programme (Physics stream), finished a fruitful 6-month research internship at the University of Cambridge in August 2024. His research is about condensed matter physics, which requires delicate equipment and precise measurement skills.

CityUHK’s UG Information Day was held successfully on Oct 5; over 2000 HKDSE takers, their parents, and teachers visited the College of Science’s (CSCI) booth for the latest admission tips. This year, for the first time, the College set up a “Science Corner” and over 500 participants had fun winning souvenirs by cracking Chemistry, Mathematics and Physics questions.

Eight outstanding scientists from the College of Science (CSCI), City University of Hong Kong (CityUHK) have been awarded funding from the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) for 2024, comprising one-fourth of all CityUHK’s NSFC funding awardees.

Professor Condon Lau, Associate Professor from the Department of Physics of the College of Science, won a Gold Medal at the Silicon Valley International Inventions Festival (SVIIF) 2024.

CityUHK has performed remarkably well in science subjects in the 2024 global rankings. Two science subjects, Physical Chemistry and Condensed Matter Physics, break into the Top 10 globally. Many other science subjects also showed significant achievement in rankings.

With the rapid expansion of graduate numbers in the College, two Commencement sessions for our Graduating Class of 2024 were arranged. What's more, the Departmental Toasting Ceremony after the College Commencement session is back! Happy graduation to the College of Science's 2024 Graduating Class!
