STUDENTS · EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING
Learning beyond the classroom
Fieldwork, internships, service-learning and study abroad. Every undergraduate completes at least one experiential learning component before graduating — in a Kowloon housing estate, a Guangdong archive, a classroom, a courtroom or a partner campus overseas — and the Faculty helps fund the cost of getting there.
