China is under the economic transition from a manufacturing base to a more integrated economy with a wider variety of value-added capabilities. Healthcare will be one of the fastest-developing fields and thus considerable amount of job opportunities will be created in Hong Kong and Mainland China. Hong Kong is well positioned to become a major centre in the following areas:

Aging, air and chemical pollution, threats to bio-security, obesity, and fast spreading of infectious diseases all impose enormous pressure on the provision of trained professionals in the field of bioengineering. Hong Kong government clearly identifies healthcare and testing/certification being among the six new economic pillars which has enormous potential for development. The Bioengineering Major will serve to educate the future professions in this industry.

The students will gain a sound foundation in the relevant disciplines through practical hands-on projects and extensive exposure to real-life scenarios through industrial placements and overseas exchange arrangements with a view to attaining the dynamic levels and standards required by highly competitive markets such as Hong Kong and mainland China.


Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) inNuclear and Risk Engineering (BENG NRE)核子及風險工程榮譽工學士

As this major is multi-disciplinary in nature, job prospect is promising. After graduation, students can choose to work in many related professions or industrial sectors, such as power generation industry, maintenance engineering for large corporations, medical radiation related fields in hospitals and diagnostic centres, radiation protection and environmental protection in government departments and private consultancy firms, product research and development in nuclear radiation equipment companies, risk assessment in the financial sector, and also disaster management for Government, public utilities companies and big corporations.

Career Prospects

This major is a unique undergraduate programme in Hong Kong, aiming at meeting the current manpower requirements and also future economic challenges of Hong Kong. Students of this major will be trained in multi-disciplinary topics related to nuclear engineering and risk engineering. The major will concentrate on five related focus areas which are nuclear engineering, nuclear medicine and medical radiation, maintenance engineering, risk engineering, and crisis management. These five focus areas are in general aligned with three of the six new economic pillars, namely testing and certification, medical services, and environmental industry, which have been identified by Hong Kong SAR Government as the key fields for future economic growth. The following are some of the reasons why this major is needed:

Why is this Major Needed?

Due to the increasing energy demand and concerns over climate change caused by burning greenhouse-gas-emitting fossil fuels, there has been a revival of interest in nuclear energy. Many countries and cities, including mainland China and Hong Kong, are planning to significantly increase the use of nuclear energy. With such a rapid growth in this field, shortage of well-trained nuclear engineers is foreseen in this region.Due to aging population, the use of the radiation technology for medical treatments and diagnostics has been increased steadily over the years. In order to support the continuous growth in this field, it is essential for Hong Kong to train up sufficient medical radiation professionals to meet the current and future manpower demands.As more and more complex engineering systems or civil structures are being built in Hong Kong and mainland China, advanced maintenance engineering is becoming essential to ensure the safe and efficient use of such systems or structures and also to protect the huge investment associated with these complex systems or structures. Job prospect in this field is very good.Risk engineering is not only essential to the nuclear industry but also to many big corporations and engineering systems. Many companies have now recognized the importance of assessing and managing risk to ensure smooth running of their businesses. Risk professionals are highly sought-after.Risk engineering and management involve assessing potential threats and finding the best ways to avoid those threats. In contrast, disaster or crisis management involves dealing with threats after they have occurred. Several major recent disasters and product recalls such as Gulf of Mexico oil spill, severe flooding caused by hurricane Katrina in New Orleans, major vehicle recalls by Toyota, toys recalls by Mattel and Three-Deer milk powder event have highlighted the importance of crisis management for reducing the adverse impacts to businesses and governments. Many government departments, non-governmental organizations, petrochemical companies, public utilities companies, banks and big corporations do employ crisis management professionals to protect their businesses from potential crises.
