On November 28, our faculty and students embarked on two exciting technology-focused field trips—visiting the Shenzhen Bao’an Low-Altitude Economy Industry Public Service Center and Shenzhen Euerka Technology Co., Ltd., a national high-tech enterprise. From the emerging low-altitude aviation sector to the innovative smart health industry, participants immersed themselves in cutting-edge technologies, deepened their professional understanding, and broadened their horizons through meaningful industry-academia exchanges.

Part I: Low-Altitude Economy – Touching the Future of the “New Sky Frontier”

Led by our guest lecturer Ms. Weng Qianyun, the group visited the Shenzhen Bao’an Low-Altitude Economy Industry Public Service Center, where they gained an in-depth look into the development dynamics of the low-altitude economy.

· Cutting-Edge Exhibits Reveal the Future:：From technical insights into eVTOL (electric vertical take-off and landing) aircraft like Joby and Volocopter,

to live displays of passenger drones and security drones,

and even scale models of mobile vertiports—each exhibit vividly illustrated the journey of low-altitude economy from concept to real-world implementation, offering a tangible glimpse into how technology is reshaping future transportation.

· Policy Meets Industry – A Dual Engine for Growth：In the policy exhibition zone, participants systematically learned about China’s national strategic layout for the low-altitude economy and Shenzhen (Bao’an)’s pioneering initiatives as a demonstration zone.

From airspace management innovations to enterprise incubation systems, the clear development roadmap highlighted the sector’s robust momentum and potential.

· Immersive Flight Simulation Experience：The most anticipated segment—the flight simulator—allowed students to sit in the pilot’s seat and operate control sticks to perform virtual “take-offs,” “landings,” and “cruising.” This hands-on experience transformed theoretical classroom knowledge into practical skills, deepening their understanding of low-altitude aircraft operations.

· Industry Insights – Understanding Trends and Opportunities：During a dedicated Q&A session, the center’s director engaged with faculty and students on key topics—from technological breakthroughs and application scenarios to ecosystem building and talent demands—highlighting the vibrant growth and abundant opportunities within the low-altitude economy, and inspiring students to reimagine their career paths through a forward-looking lens.

Part II: Smart Health – Embracing Innovation That Cares for Well-being

Next, the delegation visited Shenzhen Euerka Technology Co., Ltd., where they experienced the pulse of innovation in the smart health industry within a nationally recognized high-tech enterprise.

· Company Overview：Founded in 2013, Shenzhen Euerka Technology specializes in R&D of smart health and medical devices and provides personalized health management solutions. With strong technical capabilities and an innovative mindset, its products are exported globally, harnessing technology to safeguard public health.

· Hands-On Product Showcase – Technology with a Human Touch：Guided by company executives, participants explored a wide array of smart health products in the exhibition hall—from convenient health monitoring devices to practical fitness and wellness tools. Each product reflected thoughtful integration of “technology serving health,” demonstrating how innovation enhances everyday well-being.

· Deep Dialogue Between Academia and Industry – Shaping the Future Together：During the visit, Deputy Dean Cheng Yun introduced the college’s educational philosophy, program strengths, and talent development strategies. Both sides engaged in in-depth discussions on industry trends, technological innovation directions, and talent requirements in the smart health sector, laying a solid foundation for future collaboration—including internships, practical training bases, and joint initiatives.

From advanced low-altitude aviation systems to user-centric smart health innovations, and from deep dives into industrial ecosystems to dynamic academia-industry dialogues, these dual visits enabled faculty and students to step beyond the classroom and directly engage with the heartbeat of diverse tech sectors. The experiences not only reinforced their grasp of professional knowledge but also opened multiple pathways for future career planning—truly embodying the goal of “going out to learn and bringing insights back in!”
