Junior Researcher Mentoring Programme (JRMP)
The Global Engagement Office of The Hong Kong Polytechnic University runs the Junior Researcher Mentoring Programme (JRMP). I mentored Group 09 in the 2026 edition, from March to August 2026. The group of secondary-school students built smart classrooms. Sensors and MQTT track the room environment and the movement of the students, on Arduino and Raspberry Pi. I teach research methodology and academic writing, and I guide each student through experimental design, paper writing, revision, and submission. Two research publications came from the group.
Highlights
- More than 25 core and guest lectures, more than four practical AIoT workshop sessions, and more than twelve continuous assessments
- Direct supervision of the experimental work of the students
- Revision of mentee papers before journal and conference submission
- The group presented at ISBDAI 2026, and won My Favourite Poster at the IET Young Professionals Exhibition and Competition 2026
- Two research publications came from the group. One of them is accepted for presentation at the 36th IEEE RADIOELEKTRONIKA conference, on metadata placement over MQTT 5 for multi-robot fleet coordination.
- The PolyU Global Engagement Office awarded a Certificate of Appreciation on 20 August 2026 for the mentoring of secondary students from March to August 2026
