CSE Alumni and Industry Day 2019 was held on 10 May 2019. It is a half-day event intended to foster relations between the department, alumni, industry and currents students. It aims at deepening the understanding of the needs of future IT leaders through receiving feedbacks on work performance of our CSE students as well as graduates. On the day, industry partners and alumni were invited to participate in the Industry Forum and panel discussion session to share their views on the CSE students/graduates they have experiences working with, the CSE study curriculum, and also to give comments to the selected final year projects.

The event started by Prof. Dit-Yan Yeung's introduction of the department and followed by the Industry Forum with discussions between Prof. Yeung, Prof. Albert Chung and industry partners. After the first two sessions, 14 selected FYP groups had a 2-minute teaser presentation on their project and had individual discussion sessions with the participants, who had also given valuable comments to the presentations and the final year projects. The event followed by a panel discussion session by distinguished CSE alumni and was then concluded by a dinner session at UC Bistro.
