The programme not only equipped me with a solid foundation in engineering, but also provided opportunities to explore and apply industry-relevant technologies, including computer vision, artificial intelligence, and the Internet of Things. During my studies, I received several scholarships, which gave me tremendous encouragement. My final-year project, ScentSafe, also won awards in several innovation and entrepreneurship competitions. After graduation, I co-founded a start-up with several fellow IVE graduates to further develop and commercialise ScentSafe, with the aspiration of contributing to Hong Kong’s engineering and innovation and technology sectors.
