ABSTRACT:
In order to enhance the research atmosphere and share research ideas among the postgraduate students, the Department of Computer Science at Hong Kong Baptist University starts to hold the HKBU-CSD Postgraduate Research Symposium (PG Day) from Spring 2005. The PG Day will be held biannually in the months of January and July each year.
Each postgraduate student (either MPhil or PhD) of the Department is mandatory to have a presentation on his/her research progress during the semester at the PG Day. Each presentation will be given 30 minutes including a question and answer session. The presentation of each student will be evaluated by his/her thesis committee. Each postgraduate student is also required to submit an extended abstract on his/her research progress, which is to be archived through a departmental technical report. A postgraduate student is required to attend all the postgraduate presentations. The faculty members in the Department will also attend the sessions relevant to their research areas.
