About Us
Welcome to the departmental web site of CSE Alumni Affairs!
The Department of Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) was founded in 1991. Over the past years, our alumni (graduation statistics) established themselves in academia, industry, and other organizations all over the world. As the home department of our alumni, we dedicate to building close ties between alumni and the department by creating communication platforms, organizing relevant programs and delivering regular updates on the latest developments at our department.
We hope this website will serve as the gateway for our alumni to stay connected with us. Together we will continue to grow as a strong department with successful alumni.
Connectors
As a regular promotion program, each year we feature several alumni as the HKUST CSE Connectors. They will be invited to communicate with our students, researchers and faculties and share their experiences. If you are interested in serving as a connector or know anyone interested, please contact us.
