CityU Information Day 2022 [Register Now!]

The CityU Information Day 2022 will be held on 22 October 2022 (Saturday). Come and visit our virtual booth or join us at our on-campus activities.

It is an excellent opportunity to know more about our BSc Physics programme, joint degree programme and Talents Programme. You are encouraged to attend our admission talks and other live sessions to interact with our faculty members and students, either online or face-to-face on campus. You are also welcome to join our guided tour in the department laboratory. In addition, you may explore the professional career prospects for physics students by viewing our alumni sharing videos.

Prior registration is required. 
Limited seats are available for on-campus activities, and walk-in will not be available if the registration is full. Registrations are on a first-come, first-served basis. Register early!

Expert Talk

	Live Talk - Quantum Technology 現場/網上講座 - 量子科技
	Classical physics, which includes Newton Mechanics, Maxwell Electromagnetism and Boltzmann Thermodynamics, has successfully explained all the physical phenomena before 19th century. Around 1900, several experiments, including photo-electric effect and thermal radiation, cannot be explained by classical physics. This gives rise to the birth of quantum mechanics, which successfully explains the atomic world. In the past, quantum mechanics is only explored by scientists in the laboratory. Nowadays, big companies, such as Google and IBM, have put a lot of effort for developing quantum computer, transferring from science to technology. Just similar to transistor, quantum technology will revolutionize nowadays technology. This talk will guide you through the past, present and future of quantum.

Lab Guided Tours

Topic:	Lab Guided Tour: Innovation Technology in Physics – Magnetic levitation and 3D imaging demonstration 實驗室導賞: 創新科技的物理 – 磁浮及立體影像展示
	Demonstrations and explanations of principles relating to the experiments and exhibits. A wide collection of fun experiments and exhibits to illustrate important concepts in physics. These experiments reflect the concepts that students will learn in our Physics programme.
	Examples of the exhibits include: - A superconductor is placed above magnets, it can be levitated by this repulsive force (Meissner effect). - Of the many ways to produce a hologram, we would demonstrate a method for producing holograms by using He-Ne laser.
	Visitors are welcome to touch, feel and operate some of the exhibits, or try performing some of the experiments by themselves.
Time: .	Session 1 1:00 PM - 1:30 PM Session 2 2:00 PM - 2:30 PM Session 3 3:00 PM - 3:30 PM
Format:	On-campus
Venue:	Room G5317, 5/F, Yeung Kin Man Academic Building, CityU
