Hong Kong Baptist University (HKBU) recently received a generous donation of HK$125,000 from Professor Liu Jiming,  Associate Vice-President (Research Development) and Chair Professor in Computer Science of HKBU, to set up an endowment fund for the establishment of the “Prof. Jiming Liu Future Leaders in Computer Science Scholarship”. Starting from the academic year 2026-2027, an annual scholarship of HK$5,000 will be awarded to a local undergraduate student in Year 2 or above at the Department of Computer Science. The recipient must demonstrate outstanding academic performance, as well as active engagement and leadership in community service or extracurricular activities.

A dedicated mentor to emerging leaders in computer science, Professor Liu established this scholarship to recognise high-achieving students who shine beyond the classroom, inspiring them to drive positive progress in the tech sector and society at large.
