The University provides the Conference Grant to encourage faculty members to participate in overseas conferences, thereby building up their international exposure and research network. To further promote international research collaboration, enhancement has been made to this provision as follows:

The cap of the Conference Grant is raised from HK$12,750 to HK$20,000 per academic year; and

More flexible use of the funding, i.e., there will not be itemized sub-limits for airfare and registration fee.
