Eight faculty members—including the Department Chair and Vice Chair—delivered concise, engaging 20-minute presentations on their research areas. Highlights included Professor Chi-Kuang Sun’s exploration of photonics applications in electrical engineering and Professor Chia-Yi Yeh’s personal insights on opportunities and challenges for women in EE. Each talk provided attendees with a clear view of both foundational coursework and cutting-edge developments in the field.

Two flagship lab stations let students step beyond the lecture hall and into real experimentation. One station featured an FM electromagnetic-wave transceiver setup, while the other showcased network-multimedia systems. Participants not only operated the instruments themselves but also learned the underlying principles—demonstrating the department’s “hardware‐meets‐software” ethos and its diverse research foci.

Transforming “Switching Circuits & Logic Design,” a required freshman course, into an interactive game, this challenge invited visitors to complete logic-gate puzzles under time pressure. After a short tutorial on truth tables, participants filled in missing gates to generate the correct output; successful solvers earned EE-branded prizes. The popularity of the game created lines at the booth and a lively, hands-on atmosphere.

Near the main booth, peer volunteers staffed an “Admissions Help Desk,” fielding questions from both junior and senior high school students. Topics ranged from application strategy and the two‐stage NTU entrance exam to study-planning tips. Additionally, senior EE students shared firsthand advice on graduate-school applications, specialization choices, and career planning—providing tailored guidance based on each visitor’s background and goals.

Organizing the Azalea Festival Expo also proved invaluable for the EE students themselves: preparing to explain all eleven departmental research areas deepened their own understanding and sparked new ideas for curriculum development and career pathways. The success of this event not only showcased the department’s strengths but also reinforced a collective enthusiasm for electrical engineering at NTU.

Sincere thanks go to all participating professors, administrative staff, and volunteers whose dedication made this expo a memorable success—both for the visitors and for the student organizers.
