**Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Guangzhou) Launches Industrial Informatics and Intelligence Institute for Cross-Disciplinary Research**
The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Guangzhou) has recently announced the official establishment of the Industrial Informatics and Intelligence Institute (Triple-i Institute). This new institute aims to promote cross-hub, cross-campus, and cross-industry research in the field of industrial informatics and intelligence.
The Triple-i Institute is one of the key laboratories set up at HKUST (GZ). Professor Fugee Tsung, Founding Acting Dean of the HKUST (GZ) Information Hub, will serve as the Founding Director of the institute. Prof. Tsung is a renowned expert in industrial engineering and decision analysis, with numerous accolades to his name.
The Triple-i Institute seeks to empower industries to enhance their operations and achieve higher efficiency, profitability, and sustainability through digital and intelligence transformation. Its primary research areas include industrial big data, industrial intelligence, the industrial Internet of Things, and industrial carbon neutrality. Professors Fugee Tsung, Xiaowen Chu, Min Gao, and Jia Li will lead these focus areas, working alongside a team of elite scholars from various disciplines.
In addition to academic research, the Triple-i Institute aims to facilitate collaboration between academia and industry. The institute is in close contact with key companies in the Greater Bay Area to discuss potential cooperative projects. By fostering school-enterprise cooperation, HKUST (GZ) and its partnering companies can leverage their strengths, integrate production and education, optimize talent supply, and enhance talent and innovation-driven growth.
The Triple-i Institute's approach is centered around cross-hub research, cross-campus institutes, industrial engagement and service, and industrial informatics education and training. By addressing real-world challenges, the institute aims to drive innovation and progress that benefits society.
Currently, the Industrial Informatics and Intelligence Institute is hiring faculty and talent with backgrounds in disciplines such as industrial statistics and analysis, intelligent optimization, industrial and systems engineering, physics-based machine learning and applications, and systems, informatics, and control.

[Interview with the Dean of Information Hub | Can we do what Stanford and MIT can’t do? ]
“港科大(广州)有 2 个特点:第一,整个港科大(广州)是一所跨学科大学;第二就是枢纽和学域模式。枢纽就像机场,有闸口可以连接各地。以信息枢纽为例,拥有人工智能、计算媒体与艺术、数据科学与分析和物联网等 4 个学域,该枢纽又跟其他枢纽相连接。通过这种架构,我们将培养“T”型人才。每个人自己的专业就是竖的那一杠,事实上还有横的那一杠,比如我们枢纽里有一些共同课,如大数据、物联网、5G/6G 等。未来的就业市场,也需要这种跨学科人才。”
