Brief Biosketch

Professor Winco K.C. Yung has over 37 years of experience in both academia and industry with engineering and management responsibilities. He is currently a Professor in the Industrial and Systems Engineering (ISE) Department at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University.

Professor Yung currently holds and has held various positions in public office, including Appointed Member of the Assessment Panel for the Enterprise Support Scheme under Innovation and Technology Commission (ITC) of HKSAR, Appointed Member of the Assessment Panel for the SERAP under Innovation and Technology Commission (ITC) of HKSAR, Member of the Stakeholders’ Group of HKQAA, the Founding Director of Hong Kong Electronics Packaging and Manufacturing Services Association (HKEPMSA), Honorary Advisor of The Hong Kong Printed Circuit Association (HKPCA), Council member of HKIE, Appointed Member of Qualification & Membership Board, Chairman of MI Discipline Advisory Panel of HKIE, Past Chairman of MIE Division of HKIE, External Assessor of Environment and Conservation Fund of The Hong Kong SAR Government, Appointed member of the Technology Review Panel of Information and Communication Technology R&D Centre of ASTRI, Invited Member of Admission Panel of the Technology Business Incubation Programme of Hong Kong Science and Technology Parks (HKSTP), and Invited Honorary Advisor of Institute of Supply Management, Pearl River Delta (ISM, PRD). He is an elected Fellow of HKIE.

Professor Yung’s research interests are in the areas of functional and electronic materials, electronic assembly, PCB fabrication technologies, product eco-design and green manufacturing, industrial environmental issues and regulations like EuP/WEEE/RoHS/REACH, technology management, quality & reliability. He has published over 290 articles in past years. He holds 11 patents granted and/or filed in USA, which have been/are to be licensed to relevant industries. He has been successful in dissemination, transfer and research of 57 research projects (46 projects as PI) with total funding of over HK$ 69 Million, 26 of which are Government funded projects in collaboration with local PCB and electronic and electrical appliance industries.  He has been editors and editorial board members of a number of Journals worldwide.

Professor Yung is the founder and Centre-in-Charge of The Printed Circuit Board Technology Center (PCBTC) in ISE, which is funded by The HKSAR Government in 1998. He was the pioneer and leader to technologically transfer and customize the breakthrough technology “microvia drilling by laser ablation” to the industry in Hong Kong & PRD region. The technology is an important enabler on the miniaturisation of electronic products. The overall technical competitive edge of PCB and substrate industries in Hong Kong and PRD is also increased. PCBTC is now the hub to forecast, assess, disseminate and transfer appropriate hi-end technologies for PCB and electronics industry locally and in Pearl River Delta (PRD) Region. These activities are enabled through research and development work, seminars and workshops, contract research, industrial partners technology mapping, collaboration and negotiation with the Government and research institutions.

Professor Yung has delivered many talks publicly on product ecodesign and green manufacturing, environmental legislations like EuP, RoHS, WEEE, REACH, and related environmental issues in various media, seminars, forums, conferences and workshops, addressing to various industries in the past years. He was invited by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) to represent Hong Kong’s electronic industry to speak at world renowned international trade fair “Electronica 2006” in Munich Germany in November 2006. He is the co-author of The Green Manufacturing Book Series: “RoHS & WEEE—Status compliance issues and implications” that was published in October 2006.

Teaching and Research Specialties

Functional and electronic materials, SMT and LED assembly, PCB fabrication technologies, eco-Design and green manufacturing, industrial environmental issues and regulations including EuP/WEEE/RoHS/REACH, technology management, quality & reliability.
