The Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering is delighted to congratulate Dr. Y.M. Tang, Senior Lecturer, on being selected as a Finalist for the 2026 UGC Teaching Award (General Faculty Members).
The UGC Teaching Award is one of the most prestigious recognitions of teaching excellence in Hong Kong's higher education sector. Established by the University Grants Committee (UGC) in 2011, the award honours outstanding academics who demonstrate excellence in teaching, leadership in teaching and learning, and scholarly contributions that advance education within and across universities.
As each UGC-funded university is permitted to nominate only one candidate per award category each year, Dr. Tang's selection as the sole finalist representing The Hong Kong Polytechnic University in the General Faculty Members category is a remarkable achievement and a strong testament to his dedication to teaching excellence.
Dr. Tang's recognition reflects his outstanding contributions in:
- Educational Impact: Creating meaningful and lasting positive impacts on student learning, development, and success.
- Teaching Innovation: Introducing creative and forward-looking pedagogical approaches that enhance the learning experience.
- Compelling Educational Initiatives: Driving innovative teaching practices with a clear vision and a demonstrable impact on higher education.
The Department extends its warmest congratulations to Dr. Tang on this significant milestone. His achievement not only brings great pride to the Department and the University but also exemplifies the spirit of excellence and innovation in teaching that inspires both colleagues and students.
