Highlights

PolyU has joined forces with The Education University of Hong Kong to establish the Centre for Immersive Learning and Metaverse in Education (CILME)—the first of its kind in Hong Kong. Spearheaded by Prof. Li Ping, CILME Co-Director, Faculty Dean and Sin Wai Kin Professor in Humanities and Technology, the collaboration aims to develop a collaborative infrastructure for conducting interdisciplinary research to impact education.

“With CILME, researchers and educators will work closely together to develop technological applications and solutions for immersive and active learning. At PolyU, we have sophisticated interdisciplinary research capabilities, a centralised teaching facility in VR/AR, and an extensive connection with industry. Capitalising on our strengths and the collaboration with EdUHK, we are looking to push new frontiers in education and technology to benefit learners, educators and society,” said Prof. Li.
