This competition aims to provide a university-wide platform for students to showcase the outcomes of their year-long capstone projects to a much wider audience.<\/p>\r\n<p><br \/>\r\nPrior to the contest, a training workshop will be organized to equip prospective student contestants with communicative and language skills.<\/p>\r\n<p><br \/>\r\nWe believe that this initiative will promote academic excellence and interdisciplinary communication by providing an opportunity for final-year students from across the faculties to gain valuable experience in presenting their research work in public. Winning students will receive trophies, certificates and Amazon gift cards, and their great performances will be showcased as exemplary samples in their capstone programmes.<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>To learn more about the competition and view past winners\u2019 presentations click <u><a href=\"https:\/\/eltu.cuhk.edu.hk\/cuhk-capstone-project-presentation-competition-2025\/\">here<\/a><\/u>.<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>DETAILS<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>1.
