About EDIC

The Engineering Design and Innovation Centre (EDIC) was established in 2009 to provide a holistic design and engineering education to students, as well as to support industry partners to innovate and address complex challenges. It offers the Innovation & Design Programme (iDP) for undergraduate students and the newly-established Master of Science in Engineering Design & Innovation (MSc EDI) for postgraduate students.

EDIC is open to collaborations with industry through student projects and consultations. We work with colleagues in the College of Design and Engineering and other Faculties/Schools to develop innovative solutions to multi-disciplinary industry problems. Our workshop facilities are well equipped and we have experienced technicians who support various types of hardware prototyping.
