The study of Information Engineering (IE) encompasses elements of Computer Science, Electronic Engineering, Data Science, Information Security, Information Theory, Telecommunications Networking, and Artificial Intelligence, and their integration. The knowledge and skills the students gain will find wide applications in emerging areas such as Artificial Intelligence of Things, Big Data Analytics, B5G/6G, Cloud/Edge Computing, Computer Vision, Cryptocurrency, Industry 4.0, the Metaverse and Smart Cities. The multi-disciplinary nature of our programme is what makes it unique and rewarding.

The IE department was established in 1989 as the first IE department and remains one of a kind in Hong Kong. The department is devoted to nurturing and educating engineering leaders for the information world of today and tomorrow. The professors are dedicated educators and world-class researchers, many of whom had extensive experience with leading research institutions worldwide before joining the department. The department has a strong presence in top-tier venues in the global scientific community, as well as strong connections in the local IT industry in Hong Kong.
