BSc (Hons) in Physics with a Secondary Major in Artificial Intelligence and Data Analytics (Physics x AIDA)
The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) has far-reaching effects on our lives, as its applications range from mobile apps, smart home systems and health-monitoring devices to industrial process optimisation. AI is intimately linked to physics in various ways, and seamless collaboration between physics and AI enables more accurate observations of the environment and more realistic solution formulations. Physics principles can be used to optimise AI components, facilitate the development of critical workflows and parameters, and enhance the training of AI systems. AI also plays a pivotal role in modern physics research by rapidly screening potential solutions, thereby saving resources needed for experimental studies.
The Physics x AIDA programme is tailored to students who are interested in both physics and AI. With a strong emphasis on applications, the programme exposes students to both fundamental and applied physics topics in addition to the principal theories of AI. The fusion of these two disciplines throughout the curriculum enables students to consolidate their learning and will provide them with a competitive edge in their future careers.
BSc (Hons) in Physics with a Secondary Major in Innovation and Entrepreneurship (Physics x IE)
The Physics x IE programme offers a very diverse curriculum that covers fundamental and applied physics, innovation and business. A highlight of this programme is the extended internship training in major technology enterprises or start-ups, which provides excellent opportunities for students to become innovative leaders in Hong Kong. The programme is ideal for students with a strong entrepreneurial spirit who wish to join the next generation of physics innovators.
Characteristics of Physics x AIDA / IE
- Multidisciplinary nature
In the Physics x AIDA programme, the combination of physics and AI provides graduates with a robust skillset suited to a wide range of career paths, such as innovation, health care and postgraduate studies. For Physics x IE, the combination of scientific and entrepreneurial skills promotes the development of our graduates into future technology leaders.
- An application-oriented approach
Collaborations with industrial partners and renowned universities provide excellent internship and exchange opportunities for students. The learning experience is also supported by well-equipped laboratories, and an AI laboratory is tailored to the curriculum of the Physics x AIDA programme.
- Well-rounded development
Students also develop their “soft skills”, such as lateral thinking, communication skills, creativity, critical thinking and problem-solving skills, which are critical assets for future leaders and entrepreneurs.
