Three FBE students win prizes in the HKSI Institute Scholarship Programme 2021

Three undergraduate FBE students took part in the HKSI Institute Scholarship Programme 2021 and were awarded 1st Runner-up, Team Award and Finalists.

Since first introduced in 2004, the HKSI Institute Scholarship Programme has provided more than 800 university students with an avenue to advance their career development for the finance industry.

For this year, participants had to submit a 1,000-word essay on the topic “How the COVID-19 has changed the world?”. Selected finalists were teamed up to work on the research project on the topic “Identify 3 major challenges impacting Research Project Sponsor’s sector due to COVID-19, and propose measures to address them” and presentation. The awardees had been offered cash prizes, 1-year HKSI membership and HKSI Institute eCredit.

Sharing from the awardees

1st Runner-up & Team Award – LAU Pak Hei Austin, BBA(Law)&LLB

“The HKSI Scholarship Program has surely been a rewarding journey for a year 1 student like me. Through rounds of oral presentations and essay writings, I have learned how Covid-19 made an impact to the banking sector and to financial regulations. My mentor, Mr. Dicky Hung from SPD Bank provided me with career insights and guidance on my group project. The program allowed me to realize the potential of my double-degree program and kick start my career in an early stage.”

Finalist – Cheung Lok Yiu Anson, BBA(Acc&Fin) 

“It is my honour to be one of the awardees of the HKSI Institute Scholarship Programme 2021 where I have the exclusive and precious opportunity to connect, network with and learn from business leaders!  I have also gained insights in the accounting industry after conducting the research project with my teammate.”

Finalist – Ma Leo, BBA(Law)&LLB

“The HKSI Institute Scholarship is an invaluable experience that allows me to explore challenges and opportunities from companies’ perspective, as well as to learn from and connect with experienced practitioners and aspiring peers. Students from all business disciplines should not hesitate to join and explore your potential.”

Professor Anna Wong, Programme Director of Asset Management and Private Banking, and ex-Director of the Hong Kong Securities and Investment Institute was at the Award Presentation and met Austin, Anson and Leo.    

“The best learning for students is learning outside of the classroom, the HKSI Scholarship Programme provides students with an excellent platform to learn and interact directly with industry practitioners.  My congratulations go to Austin, Anson and Leo.”

人工智能大語言模型圖像理解能力綜合評測報告
在科技迅猛發展的當下,人工智能技術不斷取得突破性進展,OpenAI的GPT-4o、穀歌的Gemini 2.0這類多模態模型以及通義千問-VL、混元-Vision等視覺語言模型迅速崛起。這些新一代模型在圖像理解方面展現出强大的能力,不僅具備出色的泛化性,而且還具有廣泛的應用潜力。然而,現階段對這些模型視覺能力的評估與認知仍存在不足。爲此,我們提出了一套全面且系統的圖像理解綜合評測框架,該框架涵蓋視覺感知與識別視覺推理與分析視覺審美與創意三大核心能力維度,同時還將安全與責任維度納入其中。通過設計針對性測試集,我們對20個國內外知名模型進行了全面評估,旨在爲多模態模型的研究與實際應用提供可靠參考依據。

Kudos to Prof. Gedeon Lim for His Insightful Research on Inter-Ethnic Relations!
We’re happy to share that the article Prof. Gedeon Lim contributed to, titled "How does interacting with other ethnicities shape political attitudes?" has been published on VoxDev! In this research, it examines how living near resettlement sites for ethnic minorities in Malaysia can shift political preferences. His findings reveal that closer proximity not only improves economic outcomes but also fosters casual interactions in shared public spaces. VoxDev serves as a vital platform for economists, policymakers, and practitioners to discuss key development issues, making expert insights accessible to a wide audience. Join us in exploring Prof. Lim’s contributions to understanding how inter-ethnic contact can drive positive social change! Read more here: https://bit.ly/3Cu2938
