Kei May Lau received the B.S. and M.S. degrees in physics from the University of Minnesota, Minneapolis and the Ph.D. Degree in electrical engineering from Rice University, Houston, Texas.

From 1980 to 1982, she was a Senior Engineer at M/A-COM Gallium Arsenide Products, Inc., where she worked on epitaxial growth of GaAs for microwave devices, development of high-efficiency and mm-wave IMPATT diodes, and multi-wafer epitaxy by the chloride transport process. In the fall of 1982, she joined the faculty of the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at the University of Massachusetts/Amherst, where she became a full professor in 1993. She initiated metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD), compound semiconductor materials and devices programs at UMass. Her research group performed studies on heterostructures, quantum wells, strained-layers, III-V selective epitaxy, as well as high-frequency and photonic devices. Professor Lau spent her first sabbatical leave in 1989 at the MIT Lincoln Laboratory. She developed acoustic sensors at the DuPont Central Research and Development Laboratory in Wilmington, Delaware during her second sabbatical leave ('95-'96). In the fall of 1998, she was a visiting professor at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST), where she joined the regular faculty since the summer of 2000. She established the Photonics Technology Center for devoted efforts in wide-gap semiconductor materials and devices. Professor Lau is a Chair Professor of Electronic and Computer Engineering at HKUST.

Professor Lau is a Fellow of the IEEE, OSA, and the Hong Kong Academy of Engineering Sciences. She is also a recipient of the OSA Nick Holonyak Award, IEEE Photonics Society Aron Kressel Award, US National Science Foundation (NSF) Faculty Awards for Women (FAW) Scientists and Engineers (1991) and Hong Kong Croucher Senior Research Fellowship (2008). She served on the IEEE Electron Devices Society Administrative Committee and was an Editor of the IEEE Transactions on Electron Devices (1996-2002) and Electron Device Letters (2016-2019), an Associate Editor for the Journal of Crystal Growth and Applied Physics Letters.
