Introducing the All-New OWS Showcase—Completely Reimagined!

The Library is excited to unveil the all-new Outstanding Work by Students (OWS) Showcase—a space redesigned to support the innovators and changemakers of tomorrow! This is more than a facelift; it’s a dynamic hub where creativity, collaboration, and curiosity come alive.

Proudly highlighting the achievements of Yuling, Hoi Kit, Altair, Chak Tao, Alisher, and King Fung from the Faculty of Engineering, we celebrate their innovative iWheelchair project which addresses the needs of an aging society, making travel more accessible and convenient. Their ingenuity earned them the First Runner-up Award at the Inter-departmental Final Year Projects 2023/24 and the Outstanding Award at the ASMPT Technology Award 2024. Their success highlights the impact of student-driven innovation in Hong Kong.

Explore the outstanding student projects showcasing creativity, problem-solving, and collaboration across disciplines. Visit in-person the OWS Showcase on the Library Podium Floor or browse the Online Portal to see how our students are making a difference.
