RILA transitions under new PolyU Aerospace Research Academy (PARA)

With effect from 1 July 2026, the COMAC–PolyU Research Institute for Large Aircraft (RILA) will be transferred to the newly established PolyU Aerospace Research Academy (PARA) as one of its constituent units. 

PARA will serve as a strategic platform to advance the University’s strategic development in aerospace research by strengthening coordination, integration, technology transfer and collaboration with industry, government, and international partners. The Academy will also promote interdisciplinary research and talent development, with the aim of enhancing PolyU’s contribution to aerospace initiatives in Hong Kong, the Greater Bay Area, the nation and globally. Within this broader aerospace ecosystem, RILA will continue to play its role in advancing research on large aircraft and explore opportunities for interdisciplinary collaborations.
