Message from The Vice-Chancellor

Dear Colleagues, Students, Alumni and Friends,

You are cordially invited to attend the Award Presentation Ceremony for Excellence in Teaching, Research and Knowledge Exchange 2013, which will be held on Wednesday, March 26, 2014 in Loke Yew Hall at 5:00 p.m.  We are privileged to have Dr the Honourable Sir David Li Kwok Po, our Pro-Chancellor, to be our Guest of Honour on the happy occasion again this year.

The Ceremony is one of the most important annual events on the University calendar, since it is an opportunity to recognise the exceptional contributions our colleagues have made to the University’s teaching, research and knowledge exchange endeavours. Just as importantly, it gives us a chance to celebrate the dedication and hard work that have gone into our colleagues’ accomplishments, and to encourage their peers at HKU to strive for ever greater achievements.

During the ceremony, the Outstanding Teaching Award under the Teaching Excellence Award Scheme, Faculty Teaching Award, Outstanding Research Student Supervisor Award, Outstanding Researcher Award, Outstanding Young Researcher Award, Research Output Prize, and Knowledge Exchange Award will be presented.

These honours to outstanding teachers and researchers are only bestowed sparingly, and are a tribute to the high standards of excellence that the University of Hong Kong stands for.

I do hope you will be able to join us at the ceremony, both to salute our deserving colleagues and to share the pride of being a member of the University family that includes such distinguished scholars.

Yours sincerely,

Professor Lap-Chee Tsui
Vice-Chancellor
