In order to strengthen the connection between the City University of Macau and the Minzu University of China, promote academic exchanges between the two sides, and improve the quality of undergraduate education in data science and big data technology jointly organized, three professors from the Faculty of Data Science at the City University of Macau successfully held three special lectures at the Hainan International College of the Minzu University of China, helping undergraduate students enhance their research capabilities and deeply explore the application and future development direction of artificial intelligence technology in environmental monitoring and other fields. 

 

Professor Tianqing Zhu, Vice Dean of the Faculty of Data Science at City University of Macau, gave a lecture titled "How to Start Your Research Career in the Early Stage". Professor Zhu introduced the basic content and process of scientific research to the students, and shared valuable experience on how to participate in scientific research work from the undergraduate stage, as well as how to improve scientific research ability and prepare for future graduate studies. 

 

Assistant Professor Weng Tak Kuok, Programme Coordinator of the Faculty of Data Science, gave a lecture titled "Remote Sensing Application of AI Large Model". Professor Kuok introduced how to use large-scale artificial intelligence models to process and analyze remote sensing data, improving the efficiency of data extraction, interpretation, and application. Widely applied in various fields, including environmental monitoring, urban planning, agricultural management, and disaster warning and response. 

 

Professor Xin Sun from the Faculty of Data Science gave a lecture titled "Artificial Intelligence for Environmental Monitoring". Professor Sun discussed the increasing frequency and severity of extreme weather disasters caused by environmental changes, and shared the significant progress made by AI in monitoring surface and climate dynamics over the past decade, as well as how AI technology can help prevent and reduce damage caused by natural disasters. 

 

At the same time, Professor Tianqing Zhu, Vice Dean of the Faculty of Data Science at the City University of Macau, also visited State Power Investment Corporation Limited and discussed the prospects of data science in this field with relevant officials. 

 

This academic exchange activity was warmly welcomed and highly praised by the students. The students expressed that through these lectures, they have gained a deeper understanding and recognition of scientific research, and at the same time, they have full confidence in the development and research capabilities of data science in various fields in the future.
