Partnership
In addition to project collaborations, many renowned industrial partners donate and consign advanced facilities to our Centre and share with us the latest technological and industrial trends and breakthrough, benefiting our students, researchers and academia in many aspects. We have different accredited, authorized and joint training centre collaborated with 3D Systems, Bosch Rexroth, Mitsubishi, Rockwell Automation, Siemens and Stratasys.
IC currently collaborates with Bosch Rexroth to offer PolyU students scholarship to recognize their outstanding performance in the practical application of automation technologies in class/project activities.
Companies interested in supporting our engineering education can approach us for collaboration and partnership opportunities.
