Body: 
Professor Shih-Chi Chen from Department Mechanical and Automation Engineering has been selected as a winner for the Falling Walls Breakthrough of the Year 2023 in the category of Engineering and Technology.
 
Prof. Chen is recognized for his development of a revolutionary nanoscale 3D printing platform based on femtosecond projection that achieved a record-setting resolution of 20 nm, a printing rate of 400mm3/hour, and a lower cost at US$1.5/mm3. It supports nanofabrication with 20 different materials, addressing critical fabrication challenges in nanotechnology, photonics, energy, and biotechnology.
 
The Falling Walls Science Breakthroughs of the Year Award, initiated by the Berlin-based Falling Walls Foundation, showcases and celebrates the most recent breakthroughs in science and society from all around the world. Awardees are selected by a jury comprising globally recognized experts in the fields.

Physics Placement Test

Date: 17th August 2023 (Thursday)
Time: 4:30 pm-5:30 pm (Hong Kong Time)
 
Purpose of the test 
 
New entrants admitted without HKDSE results (regardless of admission channel and programme of admission) are required to sit for the placement test. Based on the results of the placement test, students will be assigned to either PHYS1003 or PHYS1110.   
 
Test format
1. The time allowed is 60 minutes. 
2. This will be a closed-book online test.
3. Zoom link will be provided through email.
 
Important Notes
Students attending the placement test will be pre-assigned to PHYS1110F as an interim arrangement.
 
Instructions 
 
Requirements
A computer (with camera) and stable internet connection
Notes:
1. You can use a portable calculator during the test.
2. You can only use the computer to view the question paper during the test. All other applications of the computer are strictly forbidden.
 
Prior preparation
1. Students should prepare their own answer papers, A4 size without any background design (other than faint lines if ruled paper is used).
2. Please write full name and Student ID number (if known) at the top of the first page, ahead of time.
3. Sign in to ZOOM on your computer 15 minutes before the start of the placement test. 
4. The test paper will be distributed via ZOOM at 4:25pm.
 
ZOOM log-in identity
5. Your login name to ZOOM should be the same as your full name (e.g., John SMITH)
 
During the test
6. You should make reasonable effort to ensure that invigilators can see you during the entire test.
7. If you need to go to washroom, please seek permission on ZOOM.
8. You must stay until the end of the test as the invigilators will check your submitted answer script. 
 
Finishing the test
9. Invigilators will announce the end of the test. You must stop writing immediately when the announcement is made. 
10. Immediately use a document scanning app such as CamScanner or Genius Scan to scan ALL the answer pages. Then upload a single pdf file to a designated website (the link to the website will be sent to you after the test). You should complete this within 15 minutes. 
 
Announcement of placement test results and physics class assignment
Based on the results of the placement test, you will be assigned to a physics course. A notification email will be sent to your CUHK O365 email account by 31st August 2023.

Mathematics Placement Test

Purpose of the Test

The Mathematics Placement Test is a pass-fail test! It tests a student's mathematical ability for studying calculus and other areas of mathematics in engineering. The test results are used to determine eligibility for enrollment in MATH1510 (Calculus for Engineers) in order to complete one of the graduation requirements for an Engineering programme.

Students who fail the test must take both MATH1020 (General Mathematics) and MATH1510 (Calculus for Engineers) in Term 1, 2023-24. Students who pass the test will only have to take MATH1510.

There are no exemptions made for the placement test!

Placement Test Schedule

The face-to-face placement test is scheduled for 11:00am – 12:00nn on Thursday, 17th August 2023.

Please arrive at 10:00 am at Lecture Theatre 1, Yasumoto International Academic Park to complete the test registration before the start of the test. 

Alternate seating will be arranged.

 

General Characteristics of the Test

  1. The test consists of 30 multiple-choice questions. Each question is worth of 3 points with a total of 90 points. Each item has only one acceptable answer. There is no penalty for any question if you pick the choice “I don’t know” for your answer, but there is a 1-point penalty for incorrect answer.
  2. Notes and calculators are not permitted during the test.
  3. Bring a valid, physical photo ID such as HKID or passport (not expired) and a few HB (#2) pencils. Please also get your JUPAS / Non-JUPAS Application Number ready in case Mathematics Department may ask such number for further verification.
  4. You are NOT allowed to use the followings during the test:
    • Cell phones, smart phones, and other electronic devices.
    • Any clocks, timers, or watches that beep or have audible alarms.
  5. A student who for medical or other compelling reasons is unable to sit for the placement test shall apply with documentary evidence by email to math1510@math.cuhk.edu.hk on or before 18th August 2023 (Friday). No late request or request without supporting documents will be considered. Family obligations, summer jobs, job interviews or other unexpected events are not acceptable reasons in general and will result in a fail grade for the placement test.
  6. If a student's application for absence is approved, only one make-up test will be arranged. The details are to be announced.
