Resume of Career

Professor Chiu-sing Choy received his B.Sc., M.Sc. and Ph.D. from the University of Manchester in 1983, 1984 and 1987 respectively, major in electrical and electronics engineering. From 1985, he spent a year in Ferranti Microelectronics, Oldham, U.K., participating in ASIC technology research. In 1986, he joined Department of Electronic Engineering, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, where he is presently a Professor.

Prof. Choy is a fellow of HKIE. He was the chairperson the Electronics Division in 2006/07 and was a council member of HKIE. Prof. Choy is active in supporting the local electronics industry. He led a number of ITF supported industry projects in optical pick-up designs, RFID technology and Structured ASIC. Prof. Choy published widely with over hundred of papers to his credit. He serves in many international conferences and is at present a member of the steering committee of ASP-DAC, the Co-chair of the International Symposium on Applied Reconfigurable Computing 2012, and the publication chair of VLSI-SoC 2011.
