How it's used
Academic subjects in Hong Kong are often referred to by their formal names, but students frequently shorten them in casual conversation. While this term is the standard translation, you will more commonly hear people refer to the field of study simply as engineering or by the specific department name. It is rarely used outside of a university or professional context.
