CUHK Delegation Visits Beijing

 

A delegation of the Chinese University of Hong Kong, comprised of Prof. Joseph Sung, Vice-Chancellor and Pro-Vice-Chancellors Prof. Fok Tai-fai and Prof. Fanny Cheung, took part in an outgoing visit paid by heads of Hong Kong universities from 28 September to 1 October 2013 to meet with leaders in higher education, research and government in Beijing.

 

The delegates visited the National Development and Reform Commission, Ministry of Science and Technology, Ministry of Education, Hong Kong and Macau Affairs Office of the State Council, National Natural Science Foundation of China, Chinese Academy of Engineering, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. Mr. Li Yuanchao, Vice Chairman of China, together with senior administrators, academicians and scholars held meetings with Hong Kong delegates to exchange ideas and enhance connection. The delegation also participated in the National Day celebration activities.

 

During the visit in Ministry of Education, Prof. Sung, on behalf of the Hong Kong delegation, led the discussion on the recent development of collaboration in higher education sector between Mainland China and Hong Kong. Universities in Hong Kong generally are keen to continue to play an active role in participating in major national projects and pursue academic excellence and research prominence in collaboration with Mainland partners.

 

In the past years, CUHK has made a lot of endeavor in enhancing its ties to institutions of higher education and research organizations in Mainland China. Faculty members from across the University collaborate with Mainland counterparts in a broad range of disciplines and areas and the student interflow and exchange activities have becoming vigorous.  Every year, CUHK is sending over 2000 students to attend short-term or long-term programs in the mainland. The visit not only promoted exchanges and strengthened co-operation, but also provided valuable information for CUHK's senior members to gain a deeper understanding of the updated academic and research policies in Mainland China.
