Chen Jiashu, a Year Three electronic engineering student at the City University of Hong Kong, has added another prestigious scholarship to his accomplishments.
Mr Chen has been awarded an Undergraduate Scholarship by the IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society for his achievements in radio frequency integrated circuit research.
The scholarship offers US$1,500 to 10 students worldwide annually.
Mr Chen was also one of 27 recipients worldwide to win a Fulbright Science and Technology Fellowship earlier this year. He was the only Hong Kong student to receive the scholarship. The Fellowship will cover his PhD studies at the University of Berkeley, California.
He also won the championship award in the Undergraduate Degree Group of the Younger Members Conference organised by the Institution of Engineering and Technology, Hong Kong, earlier this year.
Mr Chen says he sees his scholarships and awards not as 'success' but as a good starting point for his PhD, which will begin in August.
