香港都會大學（都大）科技學院與香港電訊今天（2月2日）簽署合作備忘錄，推動創新協作和科研及專才發展，引領香港的資訊及通訊科技業邁向可持續發展。
根據合作備忘錄，雙方將合作發展及提升學術和科研項目、促進知識交流及經驗分享，以及為學生的實習及事業發展提供支援與指導。
都大科技學院電子工程與計算機科學系主任及副教授熊景輝博士與香港電訊商業客戶業務綜合科技項目及服務高級副總裁梁永強代表雙方簽署合作備忘錄，並由都大科技學院院長王富利教授及香港電訊商業客戶業務董事總經理吳家隆見證。
王富利教授表示：「都大一直致力貢獻香港的工程、通訊科技及資訊科技的發展，設有多個不同深度和寬度的榮譽學士課程，涵蓋電子及電腦工程、電腦科學、網路安全以及數據科學。都大每年都為社會培育出數百名專業人才，促進科技界的發展。是次與香港電訊的合作能夠加強都大和香港電訊不同範疇的交流，攜手建設可持續發展的智慧城市。」
吳家隆表示：「作為香港科技、媒體及電訊的領導者，香港電訊在培育年青科技專才中擔當重要的角色，待他們於專上學府畢業後能夠參與企業數碼轉型及智慧城市發展的機會，以及拓展大灣區的視野。我們十分高興與都大攜手合作培育更多科技專才，為學生提供實戰機會，以及分享香港及大灣區不同行業進行數碼轉型時所採用的科技及面對的挑戰。我們期待與都大共同開發採用新興技術的智能應用方案，以加速香港智慧城市的發展，及推動社會經濟的可持續性發展。」

After graduating from OUHK, Krutz obtained an M.Sc. in Engineering Management from CityU. He is now completing his second master degree, M.Sc. in Biomedical Engineering, at CUHK. Krutz has a wide range of working experience. He has been with Siemens, VTech, and PCCW.
Hugo Leung Wai-yin, who graduated from his four-year programme in 2015, won the Best Paper Award for his ‘intelligent pill-dispenser’ design at the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineering’s International Conference on Consumer Electronics – China 2015.
The pill-dispenser alerts patients via sound and LED flashes to pre-set dosage and time intervals. Unlike units currently on the market, Hugo’s design connects to any mobile phone globally. In explaining how it works, he said: ‘There are three layers in the portable pillbox. The lowest level is a controller with various devices which can be connected to mobile phones in remote locations. Patients are alerted by a sound alarm and flashes. Should they fail to follow their prescribed regime, data can be sent via SMS to relatives and friends for follow up.’ The pill-dispenser has four medicine slots, plus a back-up with a LED alert, topped by a 500ml water bottle. It took Hugo three months of research and coding to complete his design, but he feels it was worth all his time and effort.
Hugo’s public examination results were disappointing and he was at a loss about his future before enrolling at the OUHK, which he now realizes was a major turning point in his life. He is grateful for the OUHK’s learning environment, its industry links and the positive guidance and encouragement from his teachers. The University is now exploring the commercial potential of his design with a pharmaceutical company. He hopes that this will benefit the elderly and chronically ill, as well as the society at large.
Soon after completing his studies, Hugo joined an automation technology company as an assistant engineer. He is responsible for the design and development of automation devices. The target is to minimize human labor and increase the quality of products. He is developing products which are used in various sections, including healthcare, manufacturing and consumer electronics.
