Established in 1989, the Department of Information Engineering was the first Information Engineering Department in Hong Kong. It has gained a world-wide reputation for its leading edge research and top quality programmes. Our mission is to nurture and educate engineering leader for the information world of today and tomorrow. The Department of Information Engineering at CUHK focuses on areas related to generation, communication, storage, and processing of information as may be encountered in many real world applications. It contains areas that are traditionally linked to computer science like databases, machine learning, big data, cyber security, software engineering, computer networks, mobile and cloud computing, as well as areas that are more traditionally linked to communications aspect of electrical engineering such as wireless communications, Internet engineering, multimedia processing, the mathematical aspects of communications, optical communication, etc. Recognizing the importance of information networks in this information age, our undergraduate programme seeks to produce the next generation of engineering professionals well versed in the areas of interest in the department. The graduates normally have excellent career prospects both in software as well as hardware systems, in addition to expertise in upcoming areas such as big data, machine learning, and cyber security. We have a world class faculty whose research sits in the intersection of electronic engineering and computer science.
