About the Conference
The Graduate School (GS) is launching the first PolyU Research Student Conference (PRSC 2023) on 8 - 9 May 2023. The conference will be held in person at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU).
Aiming at promoting innovative and high-quality research, the PolyU Research Student Conference (PRSC) is the flagship research student conference, providing Research Postgraduate (RPg) students and the students of College of Undergraduate Researchers and Innovators (CURI) in PolyU with the opportunity to present their research work and findings. PRSC also provides an excellent opportunity for students from different disciplines to network with peers, and establishes a collaborative and active research community at PolyU.
The conference programme will include keynote speech and panel discussion with prominent scholars, student presentation sessions and social activities. Awards with a cash prize of up to HK$20,000 will be presented to the best student papers.
