College Research Excellence Awards 2016

Dear Colleagues,

I am delighted to announce the recipients of the College Research Excellence Awards (CREA) 2016. They are:

Dr Du Du (EF) Dr Yangxin Yu (AC)

CB emphasizes producing innovative and relevant applied research that enriches the understanding and practice of business and has established this research excellence award scheme to recognize and reward overall research excellence and important research achievements, and research that has a significant impact on society, industry and knowledge advancement. The award is also intended to publicize research excellence in the College of Business to the University and the wider community, and to promote a culture of pursuing high quality research among faculty.

The CREA Selection Panel was favorably impressed by the high quality of work presented and commended the awardees for their overall research excellence: “The two research excellence awardees of this year have very strong research achievements. They truly deserve this honor because of their significant contribution to world class research within a very short period of time. We believe their works will have strong impact on their respective fields, and they will consistently generate high impact research in their careers.”

I would like to thank the CREA Selection Panel comprising Professor William Wan (Chair), Professor Frank Chen, and Professor Kai Hin Lim for their work, and all colleagues for helping build the vibrant research culture in the College that we value so much. We welcome your participation next year!

Last but not least, a special note of thanks goes to our benefactor Jenny Chan for her generous donation which has made the establishment of this research excellence award possible.
