The Cheng Kar-Shun Robotics Institute at HKUST is an interdisciplinary research hub dedicated to developing cutting-edge robotics technologies to meet real-world challenges. With the rapid evolution of technology, robotics is increasingly being integrated into diverse sectors such as industrial manufacturing, healthcare, agriculture, and service industries. The development of robot technology has greatly improved production efficiency and will also change the way of human life. Intelligence will also be the inevitable trend of the development of robots. With the continuous upgrading of artificial intelligence technology, the development of robotics has also ushered in new opportunities.
This project, in collaboration with mentors from the Cheng Kar-Shun Robotics Institute at HKUST, offers students a comprehensive learning experience in foundational robotics theory. Through hands-on research activities such as ROS simulation, robotics control system design, and AI-driven quadruped robot simulation, participants will gain a deep understanding of the interdisciplinary knowledge involved in robotics, including mathematics, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, and artificial intelligence.

Why Us

History

XLAB has a 20+ year history. It was initiated by Professor Neher of the University of Göttingen in Germany and strongly supported by the German government and the University of Göttingen. XLAB, centered around high-end scientific experiments, is widely favored by over 10,000 students yearly. XLAB has established practice centers worldwide, aiming to expand this unique concept and teaching method to reach more students.

XLAB aims to enable more people to learn and experience the joy of science, encouraging them to explore the mysteries of science and consider how to use science to solve human problems. Therefore, XALB's subjects are generally more complex in physics, biology, or medicine. Instead, they focus more on interdisciplinary, cutting-edge topics such as genetic engineering, medical research, nanobiology, medical chemistry, high-energy physics, and more.

Subject

Experiment

Experiments are the core of the XLAB. Each participant can enter advanced laboratories to conduct safe experiments, analyze data, and write experiment reports. Over six hours of scientific research daily enhances students' scientific knowledge and logical thinking and cultivates concentration and endurance. Students will be able to experience the work content and status firsthand and consider whether to choose a research direction in future education.

The courses in XLAB are unique. They consist of four key modules: Subject Introduction and Program Thinking, Scientific Research Teaching, Laboratory Operations, Experimental Data Analysis, and Research Report Writing. All courses are taught in small groups of 10 to 25 students.

Course

Faculty

Experts are invited to design experiments and teach students since the topics and content of XLAB exceed the curriculum of high schools and are specialized in specific research areas. Relevant scientific research institutions support XLAB China and provide an in-depth academic experience for Chinese students based on its unique teaching methods and experimental requirements.

Two authoritative certificates are available: the XLAB Program Certificate of Participation, which details the experimental content and is signed by instructors. Students will complete an academic report containing experimental results and data analysis to apply for the ASDAN "Science Award" Certificate for 30 credit hours of study officially accredited by UCAS.

Certificate

Research

XALB provides invaluable research scenarios for students who plan or are currently engaged in natural science research-oriented learning, such as EPQ or scientific papers, to implement their research plans and participate in hands-on scientific research. Experimental reports can be considered as part of their research achievements.
