We are proud to announce the remarkable achievements of our AMA students, who have been recognised with two distinguished awards for the 2025/26 academic year: the Presidential Student Leadership Award from the Faculty of Computer and Mathematical Sciences and the Outstanding Student Award from the Department of Applied Mathematics.
Presidential Student Leadership Award 2025/26
Mr. YAN Yau Chun, Reg, a Year 2 student in BSc (Hons) Investment Science and Finance Analytics with a Secondary Major in AIDA, was presented with the Presidential Student Leadership Award. Reg currently serves as General Secretary of the 33rd AMA Student Association and previously held the position of Financial Secretary in the 32nd Association. Beyond PolyU, Reg is deeply committed to community service, volunteering with various organisations. He has been a member of the Hong Kong St. John Ambulance Brigade Youth Command since 2019 and was promoted to Cadet Corporal in 2021. “PolyU has supported me through diverse learning opportunities and practical expenses, helped me developing leadership, teamwork, and communication skills.” Reg said.
Outstanding Student Award of the Department of Applied Mathematics 2025/26
Miss Xie Mengyu, a final-year student in BSc (Hons) Investment Science and Finance Analytics, was selected for the Outstanding Student Award of the Department of Applied Mathematics. Mengyu shared, “I feel deeply honoured and grateful to be selected as this year’s awardees. This award not only recognises my personal effort but also reflects the remarkable support provided by the University.”
The Outstanding Student Award Scheme (OSA), organised annually by PolyU, honours full-time final-year students who excel academically and in non-academic pursuits, demonstrating leadership, strong personal qualities, active involvement in extra-curricular activities and community service, and a global outlook. The Presidential Student Leadership Award (PSLA), established in 2022/23, recognises student leaders who demonstrate exemplary leadership qualities and skills, providing them with opportunities to further contribute to society and the global community.
Both awards were presented at the Outstanding Student Award and Presidential Student Leadership Award Presentation Ceremony 2025/26, held on 19 March 2026 at Hotel ICON, where a total of 57 PolyU students were honoured for their exceptional achievements in academic excellence and leadership.
Congratulations to Reg and Mengyu for their outstanding accomplishments and valuable contributions to the AMA community!
