Here is a short summary of every topic discussed:
In the Global Challenge II, students visit a top-tier international research institution. While participating in competitive research, they can practice the communication and interaction with international researchers. This time, Sheng Hu (first year inaugural student), who went to NEC Platform Laboratory, presented his experiences and impressions. He emphasized on the communication with enterprise researchers, and how he could achieve new research results from these interactions.
The Industry-Academia Creative Group Work is a workshop where students learn about business mind and project management while working in a group, under supervision of business mentors.
