Learning Journey

Residential Workshop

The Residential Workshop offers HKU ICB’s distinctive international and interactive learning experience across regions, disciplines, cultures and industries, bringing new students together on HKU’s historic campus. Featuring business leaders and university lecturers, the workshop combines thematic lectures, off-campus visits, group presentations, expert dialogues and other diverse activities to create an immersive learning experience. It enables students to broaden their global perspectives and opens the door to knowledge integration and innovation through exchange and collaboration.

Core Modules

The curriculum comprises ten compulsory professional modules. In addition to experienced HKU faculty members, the teaching team includes senior executives from renowned multinational corporations and experts and scholars from leading universities worldwide. Together, they provide students with comprehensive professional theories, forward-looking insights and practical guidance.

Diverse Learning Experiences

Through thematic lectures, interdisciplinary knowledge-sharing sessions led by HKU faculty, corporate exchanges, and seminars, participants will gain a deeper understanding of Hong Kong’s unique strengths as an international financial centre, a global innovation and technology hub, and a bridge for cultural exchange between China and the world. Complemented by corporate and institution visits in both Hong Kong and Chinese Mainland, as well as cross-disciplinary networking activities, the programme provides opportunities to engage directly with industry leaders, experience real-world business environments, and integrate academic learning with business practice, creating an immersive learning experience with both global perspective and practical value.
