The CUHK Physics Student Conference serves as a platform for physics students to share and discuss their discoveries on various topics. Participants can gain precious experience on presenting scientific finding in a comprehensive and concise manner. Learning from the distinguished speakers, participants will understand the frontier of current scientific work. This is especially beneficial to students pursuing further studies in physics. Apart from enhancement in scientific knowledge, participants can also get a foretaste of an academic conference, a hallmark of the academia.
