PolyU Annual Report 2012/13

Chairman’s Foreword

moving with the times rising to the challenges 迎接時代挑戰

My re-appointment as Council Chairman of The Hong Kong Polytechnic University for another three-year term is much more than an honour . . . it is a challenge to work even harder for this highly respected institution so that together we can achieve even greater success for the benefit of Hong Kong and the world. 我再度獲委任為香港理工大學校董會主席，為期三年，深感榮幸的同時，更覺任重道遠，要讓這所享負盛名的院校能為香港以至世界作出更多貢獻，我必須盡心竭力，迎接挑戰。

In these times of astonishing advances in so many fields, we are well aware of the community’s rising expectations and are determined to contribute even more to society through education, research and knowledge transfer. At the same time we must be aware of stumbling blocks on the road to progress. In the cover story of TIME magazine’s special college report titled “What Colleges will Teach in 2025 – America must resolve the conflict between knowledge and know-how”, the writer details some alarming facts about US tertiary education. It is noted that 36 percent of college graduates did not show any significant cognitive gains from their four years of study, and half of American employers say they cannot find qualified graduates to hire. Let this be a lesson for us.

與時並進目標清晰

在這瞬息萬變的年代，事物發展一日千里，我們理解社會各界的期望不斷提升。理大一直致力透過教育、科研與知識轉移貢獻社會。與此同時，我們也要時刻保持警覺，應對沿途荊棘。

《時代》雜誌一篇題為「大專院校到了二零二五年將教授什麼 — 美國必須解決知識與技能之間的落差」(“What Colleges will Teach in 2025 – America must resolve the conflict between knowledge and know-how”) 的大專教育專題報告中，作者列舉了美國專上教育一些令人憂慮的現況。文章指出百分之三十六的大專畢業生完成四年課程後，認知能力沒有顯著的增長。另一方面，美國半數僱主表示難以招聘勝任的畢業生。殷鑑不遠，我們必須以此作為警惕。

理大年報 2012/13 主席序言

Changing pedagogy in times of challenges

Knowledge, not only in science and technology, changes rapidly. Pedagogy must change as well. The present trend in pedagogy places emphasis on critical thinking, discussion and expression of one’s viewpoint as well as active planning for lifetime learning; i.e. students must explore knowledge for themselves rather than being passively absorbing what is taught. Training in insightful analysis and introspective study is what enriches brains and expands young imaginations.

Do well in professions, do good for the world At PolyU, we have designed a curriculum that provides a broad-based education to complement the strong professional orientation of our programmes. The University works on widening students’ horizons by providing a wide array of “broadening subjects” in fields that include the humanities, history, culture, science and technology, so that they can explore the world beyond their chosen professions.

Chairman’s Foreword

須與時並進。現今的教學趨勢強調主動思考、討論和表達己見，以及積極計劃終身學習。學生必須主動探索知識，而非被動地教授知識。培養精闢分析技巧和個人內省能力，均有助提升學生的思維能力和想像空間。

專業精英社會棟樑

理大一直以提供專業培訓見稱，我們重新設計課程，以期為學生提供全面的教育，藉著開辦一系列有關人文、歴史、文化、科學及科技等「拓寛視野通識科目」，使學生得以放眼其專業以外的世界。

By providing a wide spectrum of choice for undergraduates, we nurture the creativity of our students, who will eventually become professionals with knowledge-enriched and broadened minds. Not only will they do well in their chosen professions; they will also be mentally equipped to take up their roles as responsible global citizens.

理大又透過提供廣泛多元的本科課程，致力培育

Our Dean of Students Office organizes seminars and activities that aim to enrich our students’ experience outside the classroom. In September 2013, I took part in the “Planning Your Way of Life” series and shared with some 200 students my university life experience under the theme “What I Wish I Knew when I Studied in University”. I must say that I was glad to see the overwhelming response of the students.

理大學務長辦事處經常舉辦研討會及活動，藉此

Students learn through serving the underprivileged

改善世界豐盛人生

At PolyU, education is not only about imparting knowledge but also applying that knowledge to make the world a better place. In pursuance of this idealistic concept, this summer several hundred PolyU students travelled out of Hong Kong to take part in servicelearning programmes in Cambodia, Rwanda, Indonesia, Vietnam and the Chinese mainland.

PolyU Annual Report 2012/13

科技固然日新月異，知識亦不斷更新，因此教學必

學生的創意，使他們日後成為見多識廣的人才，既能在本身專業大放異彩，亦足以肩負世界公民的責任。

鼓勵學生汲取課堂以外的經驗。我也曾參與二零一三年九月舉行的「生涯規劃」系列活動，以「我但願在大學時期已學懂的事」為題，與近二百名學生分享我的大學歲月。同學反應熱烈，教我驚喜不已。

理大除教授學生專業知識，亦期望他們能以知識改善世界。今年暑假，數百名理大學生遠赴柬埔寨、盧旺達、印尼、越南和中國內地，參與「服務學習」計劃，實踐理想。

Students brought a new dimension to orphans’ lives by teaching them how to use software for digital story-telling and animation programming, thereby bringing into their lives the exciting element of hope for a better future. When it was found that some children could not continue their studies at night as darkness settled over their villages, our students helped them set up solar panels and so brought into the children’s lives the boon of light by which to study at night.

參與計劃的學生教導當地孤兒利用電腦軟件說故

Through serving the needy with their professional knowledge, our students have not only broadened their own horizons as responsible global citizens but also brought back many unforgettable memories. What a rewarding and heart-warming experience for them...

學生除了利用專業知識協助有需要的人外，本身亦

事和製作動畫，為小孩帶來美好明天的希望；當他們發現學童在晚上因為沒有照明而不能温習，即協助設置太陽能燈板，供學童晚上溫習之用。

擴闊了視野，履行了世界公民的責任，並且為自己的人生增添不少難忘回憶和寶貴經歷。

理大年報 2012/13 主席序言

Industry and community support for new initiatives This year, my heart is gladdened to see so many new initiatives taking shape across the campus. Some of the larger scale ones include the establishment of the Research Institute for Sustainable Urban Development, to lead the way on urban sustainability; the Aviation Services Research Centre, in collaboration with the Boeing Company, to boost the growth of the aviation industry; and the Jockey Club Design Institute for Social Innovation, to effect changes in society through design. All these would have been impossible without the great support of business and industry as well as the wider community.

Chairman’s Foreword

年內，理大落實了不少新計劃，令我深感高興，其

中規模較大的包括成立「可持續城巿發展研究院」，藉此帶領城巿的可持續發展；與波音公司合作籌辦「航空服務研究中心」，致力推動航空業界的發展；成立全港首間「賽馬會社會創新設計院」，藉著推行創新設計，造福社會。以上各項發展有幸獲得商界、業界與社會各界鼎力支持，才能順利開展。

In particular, I am delighted that highly encouraging philanthropic support has continued to flow in throughout the year. This has enabled such advances as the establishment of eight Endowed Professorships, and the building of the Innovation Tower and the establishment of the Design Institute for Social Innovation supported by the Hong Kong Jockey Club. With further community support, we will certainly be able to achieve more in the future.

對於年內理大獲得的捐獻，我更特別感恩：善長的

Realizing our vision for a brighter future

前景遠大高峯再攀

I am confident that PolyU will continue to stay at the forefront of educational development and innovative research, turning vision into reality for a better future not just for Hong Kong, but for the world as a whole.

PolyU Annual Report 2012/13

同心同德屢創新猷

支持令大學得以成立八個勵學教授席；香港賽馬會的慷慨捐款﹐亦令創新樓和社會創新設計院兩大項目順利開展。社會各界的資助捐獻，是理大持續發展的重要支柱。

我深信理大將繼續推動教育發展和創新科研，致力實踐願景，為社會及至世界創造更美好的將來。

Finally, my special thanks to Council Members for the trust that they have so generously given me over the past four years. With their continued support, as well as that of the University management, staff, students and alumni, I am sure PolyU will be able to achieve even more for the benefit of mankind.

最後，我在此衷心感謝各位校董會成員過去四年

理大年報 2012/13 校長報告

高瞻遠矚成就願景

PolyU continued its proud record of progress and achievement in 2012/13, making significant advances in many fields of education and research. 理大於二零一二至一三年度取得長足的發展，成果豐碩，並繼續在各方面推動教育及科研的進步。

PolyU Annual Report 2012/13

President’s Overview

Nurturing serving leaders for tomorrow

培育未來楝樑熱心服務社會

The four-year undergraduate curriculum was successfully implemented in the 2012/13 academic year. It not only better prepares students for success in their chosen professions but also nurtures their development into all-round global citizens. We place strong emphasis on fostering students’ entrepreneurial and innovative spirit, as well as their critical thinking and problem-solving abilities. Before graduation, all full-time students will complete a mandatory work-integrated education component to gain real-life workplace experience.

四年制本科課程在二零一二至一三學年成功推

The new Service Learning requirement that goes hand-in-hand with the four-year undergraduate curriculum has been very well received in the PolyU community. Being the first of its kind among local universities, it requires students to apply the knowledge and skills acquired in their studies to serve the community in meaningful ways. This bolsters their self-confidence, cultivates a sense of caring, develops their social responsibility and gives them a better understanding of the community and the world.

理大為配合四年制本科課程而設立的「服務學習」

Research and innovations for a better world

科研與創新譜美好將來

On the research front, our Intelligent Ship-Bridge Anti-Collision Surveillance System was hailed as considerably more efficient and cost-effective than equipping every ship with hi-tech navigation systems. The system monitors marine traffic, evaluating the interrelated movements of ships and warning of any in danger of collision. The system won a Gold Medal at the 41st International Exhibition of Inventions held in Geneva, Switzerland.

行，新課程不但讓學生充分掌握所選專業範疇的知識，同時孕育他們成為發展全面的世界公民。理大既注重培養學生的創業和創新精神，亦使他們具有獨立思考和解難的能力。為此，所有全日制學生在畢業前均要完成必修項目「校企協作教育」，藉著實習汲取實際工作經驗。

必修科深受大學社群的歡迎，並成為本地首間把此計劃納入課程的大學。此舉旨在鼓勵學生學以致用，運用他們的專業知識及技能服務社會，同時藉此增強自信、學習關懷別人，培養對社會的責任感，並豐富對社會和世界的認識。

理大在科研領域亦建樹良多，我們研發的「橋樑防船撞智能監控系統」被稱譽較一般船隻的先進導航系統更有效，亦更符合成本效益。此系統可監控橋區水域船舶航行，監測船舶操作及主動預警船撞危險。有此出色的功能，所以它在第四十一屆瑞士日內瓦國際發明展奪得金獎。

Another award-winning example of our researchers’ ingenuity is the “BrailleWise” system which is equipped with tactile information on specially designed bars and enables visually-impaired passengers to easily access aircraft toilets unaided.

Thanks to an initiative from our Institute of Textiles and Clothing, the global fashion industry has a valuable new tool – a robotic female upper-body mannequin. Its “intelligence” enables it to morph into various body shapes or sizes. As such, it is aptly named the “i.Dummy” and should bring great benefits internationally for the necessarily painstakingly accurate fittings for haute couture and pret-a-porter.

Moving to our future joint role in space exploration with the China Academy of Space Technology (CAST), experts from both sides are now working together to develop a space tool to collect lunar rock samples in the third phase of China’s lunar exploration programme. In March 2013, Poly U signed an agreement with CAST to establish a Joint Laboratory in Mechanics and Space Environment Engineering. This new collaboration has widened the scope of our participation in national space projects.

助委員會（教資會）的「研究評審工作」做好準

備，以配合教資會將沿用國際基準及更嚴格的尺度衡量轄下受資助院校的科研發展。

理大年報 2012/13 校長報告

Meanwhile the world’s first Brain Training Device to re-connect the brain and paralyzed limbs after a stroke has been perfected by researchers in our Interdisciplinary Division of Biomedical Engineering. The device can be coupled with the Division’s earlier award-winning “Hand of Hope”, or Exoskeleton Hand Robotic Training Device, to achieve a higher degree of recovery among stroke patients.

Forging ahead with the Strategic Plan

PolyU Annual Report 2012/13

President’s Overview

Following the formulation of the University’s Strategic Plan for 2012/13 to 2017/18, the year saw some key achievements in various aspects. On 14 June, 2013, to help keep abreast of China’s massive urbanization process and address the issue of urban sustainability, we opened our Research Institute for Sustainable Urban Development (RISUD) on campus. Rapid urbanization has brought both opportunities and challenges. RISUD is committed to multi-disciplinary collaborations to address major urban planning and environmental issues. Its establishment is yet another drive to foster sustainable urbanization through research and knowledge transfer activities, consulting services and professional training.

策略發展計劃堅實穩步向前

隨着制訂二零一二／一三至二零一七／一八年度的策略發展計劃，理大年內在不同範疇初見成果。為緊貼中國內地大規模城市化發展及解決城巿可持續發展問題，我們在二零一三年六月十四日於校園成立「可持續城巿發展研究院」。因應急速的城市化發展帶來的機遇與挑戰，研究院將致力於跨學科合作，以回應重要的城巿規劃及環境問題，同時透過研究和知識轉移、顧問服務及專業培訓工作，推動可持續城市化的發展。

International partnerships have continued to flourish as the University intensifies its effort in internationalization. To promote PolyU as a unique brand locally, regionally and globally, extra effort is being devoted to the use of social media to foster closer engagement with our stakeholders.

理大放眼國際的願景亦促成多項國際合作項目。

We have not lost sight of leveraging our strengths in contributing to the nation’s development. Natural disasters are an ever-present threat, especially on the Chinese mainland. This is the reason for the establishment of China’s first Institute for Disaster Management and Reconstruction in partnership with Sichuan University on its Jiang An Campus and with the support of a generous donation from the Hong Kong Jockey Club. The two universities have since collaborated in the areas of Post-disaster Rehabilitation and Medical Treatment, Disaster Social Work and Psychology, as well as Environment Planning and Engineering.

理大對國家的發展同樣關注。中國內地常有天災，

At home, on our own University campus, we are committed to building a sustainable environment. Following the completion of the Phase 8 Development, all new classrooms and lecture theatres were available for use in January 2013, providing additional space for general teaching and research, conferences, staff offices and communal use. The year also witnessed the opening of the 25-storey student hostel in Homantin, comprising six halls that share three “gardens-in-the-air”

校園發展方面，我們竭力營造可持續的大學環境。

大學與時並進，投放更多資源在社交媒體上，與各持份者保持緊密連繫，並藉此在香港、地區及國際層面宣揚理大的獨特性。

在香港賽馬會慷慨資助下，我們和四川大學在

其江安校區共建全國首間「災後重建與管理學

院」。此後兩所大學在災後康復與醫療、災後社會工作及心理學，以及環境規劃與工程等範疇便合作無間。

隨着第八期校園發展計劃竣工，所有教室和演講廳已於二零一三年一月啟用，提供額外空間作為一般教學及科研設施、會議設施、辦公室及公共空間之用。同時，理大位於何文田的學生宿舍亦已啟用，宿舍樓高二十五層，分為六個舍堂，共用三個空中花園，合共提供一千六百五十個宿位。完善的

on bedroom floors and provide 1,650 places for students. The new hostel is undoubtedly contributing to a fruitful hall life for students which enriches their learning and life experience.

宿舍設施，有助同學透過舍堂生活，豐富學習和成

We value our staff as much as we value our students. In pursuit of excellence in teaching, research and service, PolyU spares no effort in developing its human resources, including the recruitment of quality staff and the provision of a career track for staff members. With regard to staff retention and recognition, we believe it is only fair to aim at developing a performance-based salary increase system and a performance-based reward system to boost staff performance.

大學對教職員同樣重視。為追求教學、科研與服務

長的經歴。

達至卓越的水平，理大在發展人力資源方面不遺餘力，我們聘用優秀的教學人員，並為教職員提供晉升制度。在挽留和表揚員工方面，我們相信訂立一套以工作表現為本的加薪及獎勵計劃，會有效提升教職員的表現。

團結理大同仁迎接各種挑戰

I have committed to serving PolyU for another five years commencing 1 January 2014 and I am truly thankful for the immense support from Council Members, staff, students, alumni, partners and friends of the University over the past years.

由二零一四年一月一日開始，我將續任理大校長

I often encourage students to become “practical dreamers”, focusing on reality but looking beyond it. In a way, we at PolyU are also practical dreamers, who strive to turn our vision in education, research and service to society, the nation and the world into reality. In times of challenge, we set new goals and we aim to reach new heights. I look forward to continued support from the PolyU community and our stakeholders in achieving this.

我經常勉勵同學要成為「講求實效的夢想家」—

五年。非常感謝校董會成員、大學同仁、學生、校友、合作夥伴及友好過去的鼎力支持；我將一如既往，竭誠為理大服務。

既腳踏實地、也高瞻遠矚。某程度上，理大同仁也是一群講求實效的夢想家，竭力實踐我們對教育、研究及服務社會、國家以至世界的願景。面對挑戰，我們依然鼓足幹勁，心懷大志，堅實地邁向更遠大的目標。我衷心希望理大同仁及持份者繼續同心協力，攜手並肩，令理大發展更上層樓。

A flourishing year for Service-Learning

培育人才服務學習豐收的一年

From 2012-13 onwards, in alignment with PolyU’s goal of developing graduates into responsible global citizens, students on the four-year undergraduate curriculum are required to successfully complete a 3-credit subject designated to meet the Service-Learning requirement before graduation. PolyU is the first university in Hong Kong to make service learning mandatory for all undergraduate degree students. The Office of Service Learning was established in 2012 to promote and support the institutionalization of service-learning at PolyU.

自二零一二至一三學年起，為培育學生成為富責

Service-Learning integrates academic study with community service and reflection, thereby enriching students’ learning experience. As at August 2013, Senate had approved 40 Service-Learning subjects proposed by 20 academic departments from eight Faculties/Schools, covering a wide range of community service projects. These subjects provide students opportunities to use their professional knowledge and skills to serve needy people. A Service-Learning Handbook was also compiled, providing staff and students detailed guidelines on the implementation of Service-Learning projects. Furthermore, the University has set up the Community Service Fund and Service Learning Scholarships to respectively provide funding support to projects and to reward students for outstanding service-learning performance.

服務學習課程把社會服務及學生自我反思融入本

The close partnership between the University and community partners is one of the keys to the success of Service-Learning. The University launched the “PolyU Serves” Community Service Campaign in 2012 and successfully invited 76 non-government organizations, government departments and schools to be our collaborative partners.

任心的世界公民，所有四年制本科生必須於畢業前修畢一科佔三個學分的服務學習課程科目。理大是本港首間將服務學習課程納入本科課程必修科的大學。服務學習事務處於二零一二年正式成立，專責促進及支援服務學習方面的發展。

科學習中，有助豐富學生的學習經驗。截至二零一三年八月，理大教務委員會共審批通過四十個服務學習科目。這些科目來自八個學院共二十個學系，廣泛覆蓋不同範疇的社會服務項目。這些科目讓他們運用專業知識及技能，服務有需要人士。服務學習事務處出版了一本服務學習手冊，為教職員及學生提供開展服務學習項目的詳細指引。理大亦設立了「社會服務基金」及「服務學習獎學金」，分別用作支持服務學習項目的推行和獎勵在這方面有傑出表現的同學。

與社區夥伴緊密合作是推行服務學習的其中成功關鍵。理大於二零一二年開展「理有心」社會服務計劃，邀得七十六所非政府組織、政府部門及學校成為大學服務社會的合作夥伴。

Work-Integrated Education

校企協作教育

Established in 2005, PolyU’s mandatory Work-Integrated Education (WIE) component is a unique feature of the University’s undergraduate curriculum. It requires students to engage in authentic projects or work as interns in an organizational context. In 2012/13, the Office of Careers and Placement Services secured various local internship opportunities in leading companies. Also, more than 800 PolyU students experienced offshore internships on the Chinese mainland, including Beijing, Shanghai and Nanjing, and overseas in Australia, Canada, Germany, the UK and USA.

自二零零五年起，必修的校企協作教育成為理大

International Student Ambassador Scheme

國際學生大使計劃

本科課程的其中一大特點，當中要求學生必須參與一些工作項目或實習一段時間。二零一二至一三年度，就業服務處除了為學生在本地多家領先機構爭取實習機會外，亦安排逾八百名理大學生前往內地主要城市如北京、上海和南京，以及海外國家，包括澳洲、加拿大、德國、英國及美國等進行實習。

PolyU launched the International Student Ambassador Scheme in 2012 to groom students for global citizenship through a combination of developmental programmes, global engagements and opportunities for intercultural exposure. These Ambassadors also serve as catalysts in promoting integration among local and non-local students. So far, 975 students have joined the Scheme and over 110 of whom are subsidized to experience global engagements in 23 countries, thereby enhancing their global outlook.

學生支援服務綜合平台

Mainland and International Student Services Office (MISS), in its operation for the first year, provided support services to 6,000 incoming students. MISS also organized 140 programmes and activities in different nature to create an integrated platform for students from different cultures to widen their horizon and to appreciate other cultures. In building a caring community for all incoming students, MISS launched the Host Family Scheme and Mentoring and Development Programmes which served more than 200 incoming students.

內地及國際學生服務處在其投入服務的第一年，已經向六千位從外地來的同學提供了支援服務，並策劃了一百四十項活動，為來自不同文化背景的理大學生創造了一個綜合的交流平台，開闊學生的視野，讓他們欣賞不同文化。為了給所有從外地來的同學締造一個充滿關愛的社群，內地及國際學生服務處推出「親善家庭計劃」和「良師益友發展計劃」，為二百多名從外地來的同學提供支援。

In 2012/13, the many programmes organized by the Culture Promotion Committee and its executive arm, the Culture Promotion and Events Office, had a total patronage of almost 20,000.

文化推廣委員會通過其行政部門 — 文化及設施推廣處在年內舉辦多項活動，共有接近二萬人參與。

The year saw two Artist-in-Residence Programmes — Erhu Master, Prof. Wang Guo-tong and his son, Mr Ray Wong, a versatile erhu recitalist; and the King’s Harmonica Quintet. The Students’ Union Orchestra and Chinese Orchestra enjoyed the invaluable experience of sharing the stage with these renowned masters. The year also featured PolyU Council Member and alumnus Mr Alex Lui’s collection of 84 exhibits, ranging from architectural drawings, sketches, charcoal and pencil drawings, to Chinese ink, water colour and pastel paintings, capturing Hong Kong and the mainland’s urban and rural scenes from the 1990s to the present.

年內推行了兩項駐校藝術家計劃，邀得二胡大師

Partnered with Chung Ying Theatre, the play “Tuesdays with Morrie” was staged on campus. Over 100 students and staff attended the Pre-Play Talk held at the University’s Pao Yue-kong Library. The publication Tuesdays with Morrie was also selected as the common book for Year One students under the READ@PolyU Programme which was generously supported by the Shun Hing Education and Charity Fund to promote a reading culture.

These two Units provide highly integrated yet flexible pathways for students. Various modes of study are also available to suit different needs.

理大透過其專業及持續教育學院開辦各類專業持續教育課程。學院轄下有兩個以自負盈虧模式運作的單位，包括香港專上學院及專業進修學院。這兩個單位為學員提供融合且靈活的進修途徑，並有多種進修模式以配合不同的需要。

香港專上學院

With its student population going over the 8,000-mark in 2012/13, HKCC reached a new milestone in its growth and development. During the year, HKCC offered 36 associate degree and higher diploma programmes, spanning arts, science, social sciences, business, health care and design. The articulation of its graduates to degree studies in 2012, at 83%, ranked as one of the highest among sub-degree institutions in Hong Kong.

There can be no cure without caring but there may be caring without curing. This undoubtedly has fostered my aspirations to become a competent and caring nurse.

High Achievers 卓越學生

未有悉心照料，或許不能治愈病人；但縱使無藥可醫，也可關懷備至。這句話無疑促使我一直追尋理想，成為一位稱職和懂得關顧病者的護士。

The top award of “Most Outstanding PolyU Student” went to Miss Nichole Leung Lai-ting, a final-year student of BSc (Hons) in Nursing from the Faculty of Health and Social Sciences. Nichole, despite suffering chronic disease, has worked extremely hard to achieve her dream of becoming a nurse. Hospitalized for three years before taking her place at PolyU, she nevertheless kept studying hard, and against severe odds completed the HKCEE and HKAL examinations. First admitted to PolyU for a Higher Diploma in Nursing in 2009, Nichole successfully articulated to degree programme in 2010 and ranked among the top three in class. Her well-earned scholarships include the HKSAR Government Scholarship 2011/12, Wei Lun Foundation Scholarship 2011/12 and Li Po Chun Charitable Trust Fund Scholarship 2010/11. She is also an active participant in sports, co-curricular activities and social services. She was a member of PolyU Woodball team and previously joined a Cambodia Service Learning Tour.

「二零一二年度香港理工大學最卓越學生獎」得主是醫療及社會科學院護理學課程四年級學生梁麗婷。梁同學夢想成為專業護士，但她是一位長期病患者，在入讀理大前曾經留院三年接受治療。住院期間，她堅持努力讀書，完成會考及高考，並成功在二零零九年獲理大取錄入讀護理學高級文憑課程。翌年，梁同學順利升讀護理學學位課程，而且學業成績一直名列前茅，曾獲頒的獎學金包括二零一一至一二年度香港特別行政區政府獎學金、二零一一至一二年度偉倫基金獎學金，以及二零一零至一一年度李寶椿慈善信託基金獎學金。此外，她亦積極參與體育、課外活動和社會服務。她過往是理大木球隊隊員，更曾參與柬埔寨社會服務團。

skills through application-oriented programmes, and to undertake research, emphasizing those of an applied nature which are relevant to industrial, commercial and community needs. Towards this end, the University recognizes the importance of establishing and implementing an effective framework of governance and management in directing and monitoring its operation and financial performance. The University has put in place the following governance structures and processes:

1. Council The Council of PolyU is composed of members appointed in accordance with The Hong Kong Polytechnic University Ordinance. The majority of Council members, including the Council Chairman, are external to the University. As the supreme governing body of the University, Council will do its best to govern the University by ensuring effective management of the University by the University Management team led by its President who is the Chief Executive Officer of the University. All Council members are expected to provide support and advice to the University so as to ensure its well-being and sustainable development. Council members will diligently and faithfully discharge their duties in the best interests of the public, the University’s students, employees and other sectors of the University community.

2. Council committees The Council will appoint standing Committees to support the governance of the major activities of the University.

University executives are expected to exercise their authorities in an equitable, fair and compassionate manner, and to make decisions after adequate consultation in a collegial spirit through various formal and informal processes which cover diverse perspectives to facilitate executives in reaching balanced and informed decisions.

工商界及社會的需要。為達致以上目標，大學必須建立有效的管治及管理架構，藉以指導及監察大學的運作與財政管理。理大的管治架構及治事程序如下﹕

一. 校董會

理大校董會成員乃按照《香港理工大學條例》委任。大部分校董會成員，包括主席，均為校外人士。作為大學最高的管治機構，校董會須盡力執行管治工作，藉以確保以校長為首的大學管理層能夠有效地管理大學。校董會成員有責任向大學提供意見和協助，務求為大學謀福祉及確保其持續發展。校董會成員須忠誠地盡力履行職務，並以公眾、學生、

員工及大學的整體利益為依歸。

二. 校董會轄下委員會

校董會可委任常設委員會，以支援大學主要活動的管治工作。這些委員會包括常務委員會、校園發展委員會、財務委員會、審核委員會等。委員會數目可按需要而增加。各委員會按照校董會訂下的職權範圍執行職務。校董會亦可以就個別重要事項設立臨時委員會或

同類組織。

三. 教務委員會

校董會依照大學條例設立教務委員會，作為管治大學學術事務的最高組織。教務委員會由校長擔任主席，成員則來自大學不同的單位。

四. 管理層

理大採取行政主導的管理模式，管理人員獲賦予相關權力執掌職務，同時亦須為其職務問責。他們須以公平、公正及體恤的態度執行職務，在制定政策時，須透過正式及非正式渠道進行適當諮詢，廣納意見，務求作出深思熟慮、不偏不倚的決定。

五. 內部監管及對校外的披露

The University Management will ensure high-level performance and cost-effectiveness in all aspects of the University’s academic and service operations through appropriate delegation of responsibility and authority as well as the deployment of checkand-balance mechanisms. It will also maintain an effective internal control system to appropriately monitor the exercise of executive authorities, safeguard the university’s assets and ensure their appropriate use or disposition, maintain proper accounts and records, and comply with relevant legal and regulatory requirements as well as to ensure appropriate risk management.

大學管理層透過下放權力，並採取制衡措施，

The University will publish an annual report and audited financial statements after the end of each financial year. To provide an objective and independent review of the financial reporting of the University and to ensure transparency and accountability in the use of financial resources, an external auditor is appointed by the University to conduct an annual audit of its financial statements.

大學將於每個財政年度後出版年報及經審核

The Audit Committee will provide an independent review of the effectiveness of the financial reporting process, internal audit process, internal control system and risk management of the University. The Audit Committee will receive reports from both the internal and external auditors and will ensure their adequate and fair disclosure in the University’s annual accounts, and the appropriate development, maintenance and implementation of control measures to address risks.

SOLID PROGRESS

穩健發展

The University had a good start financially in 2012/13, the first year of the University Grants Committee (“UGC”) funding triennium 201215. The year not only marked a new era for local tertiary education, with the new four-year undergraduate curriculum being smoothly implemented in the University, but also the launch of the University’s Strategic Plan 2012/13-2017/18 and a set of re-aligned investment strategies. The re-start of the Matching Grant Scheme, already into its 6th phase, by the government contributed to the increase of income in 2012/13.

本校於 2012/13 財政年度財政穩健，奠定了大學教

The year ended with a healthy surplus and stronger balance sheet as at 30 June 2013. The University and the Consolidated Entity recorded a surplus of $514.4 million (2012: $154.4 million) and $729.7 million (2012: $280.5 million) respectively in 2012/13. Net assets of both the University and the Consolidated Entity had a positive growth of 15% and 18% to $4,029.9 million (2012: $3,515.5 million) and $4,762.7 million (2012: $4,029.4 million) respectively.

OPERATING RESULTS AND FINANCIAL POSITION

營運結果及財務狀況

In 2013, the total income of the University rose by $750.1 million to $4,997.1 million (2012: $4,246.0 million), an increase of 18% over the previous year. The key contributors to this growth in revenue were the $448.2 million increase in Government Subventions and the $117.5 million rise in Tuition and Other Fees, which were due to the implementation of the four-year academic structure and the double cohort of first year students, resulting in a record high UGC undergraduate student body of 13,000. An increase in Net Investment Gain by around $100.0 million to $132.0 million (2012: $32.1 million) was the positive outcome after the implementation of the new investment strategies. With the launch of the Sixth

育資助委員會「教資會」 ( ) 2012-15 三年撥款期首年的良好開端。隨著新四年制本科課程順利推行，本年度不僅是香港高等教育邁進新里程的重要時候，也是大學策略性發展計劃 2012/13-2017/18 和新投資策略執行的開端。政府重新啟動配對補助金計劃並已踏入第 6 期，促進了2012/13 財政年度收入增長。

務狀況。本校與綜合體分別錄得盈餘 5.144 億港元 ( 2012 : 1.544 億港元)及 7.297 億港元( 2012 : 2.805 億港元)。本校與綜合體的淨資產增長率分別約為 15% 及 18% ，分別增長至 40.299 億港元( 2012 : 35.155 億港元)及 47.627 億港元( 2012 : 40.294 億港元)。

港元(2012 : 42.46億港元)，較去年同期上升 18%。增幅主要來自政府額外撥款 4.482 億港元及學費和其他收費增長共 1.175 億港元，由於四年本科學制的開展與同年招收兩批新生的關係，今年教資會本科生創新紀錄，總人數多達 13,000 餘人。大學投資淨收益增長了近1億港元至 1.32 億港元 ( 2012 : 3,210 萬港元)，是實施新投資策略的正面成果。受惠於第 6 期配對補助金計劃的推行，外界捐助增至 2.201 億港元( 2012 : 1.355 億港元)。然而為了實施新本科學制，本校總開支較去年同期

Matching Grant Scheme, Donations and Benefactions in the year reached $220.1 million (2012: $135.5 million). The expenditure of the University increased by an overall rate of 10% to $4,478.2 million (2012: $4,088.2 million), mostly due to the implementation of the new academic structure. Following the completion of the Phase 8 Development Project (Block Z), a number of consequential works were carried out to suitably furnish the available space for our staff and students. Taking into consideration the associated renovation costs, as well as the cost incurred in the purchase of office/classroom furniture and equipment items, moving and facilities management, the Premises and Related Expenses amounted to $906.6 million (2012: $720.3 million), an increase of 26%.

The total operating income of subsidiaries was $1,324.1 million (2012: $1,181.9 million) and total operating expenditure was $1,108.0 million (2012: $1,108.8 million), achieving a surplus from operation of $216.1 million (2012: $73.1 million). The 12% increase in total operating income was mainly due to the increase in post-secondary education places offered by Hong Kong Community College (“HKCC”) in response to market demand in this unique double cohort year and the continued business growth of Hotel ICON. The corresponding higher level of expenditure in these two subsidiaries was partly offset by the expenditure eliminated after the selling off of a number of subsidiaries in the previous year. Total expenditure of the subsidiaries, net of their donation of surpluses to the University, increased 5% in the year.

FINANCIAL OUTLOOK

財政展望

To cater for the University’s Strategic Plan and the consolidation of the new four-year undergraduate structure, a higher level of resources demand is expected in the future.

為配合大學的策略性發展計劃及進入新四年本

With the aim of recruiting and retaining talent, the Review of the Salary and Reward System currently underway will help enhance the University’s pool of high-quality staff. Long-term Campus Planning will guide the University to provide better environment and facilities to achieve its mission. Our strong financial position will be a good foundation for these various initiatives.

為達到招聘及保留人才的目的，本校現正進行薪

We cannot foresee accurately what the future will be, particularly the condition of the financial markets. The finance team, however, will strive to follow the best risk and financial management practices to ensure that the University’s Strategic Plan is well executed, allowing us to achieve our mission in nurturing talents for the betterment of Hong Kong and our nation.

雖然我們不能預測未來，尤其是金融市場的變化。

科學制的鞏固期，本校預期未來的資源需求會持續增加。

酬及獎勵制度檢討以改進大學的人力資源管理。長遠校園發展計劃可為大學提供更佳的空間及設備以助實現其使命。本校穩健的財務狀況為以上各項目提供了良好基礎。

但我們的財務團隊致力遵行良好的風險及財務管理，確保大學的策略性發展計劃能夠有效地執行，以達成為香港及國家作育英才的使命。
