Off-Campus Learning

Exchange Programme

In preparing young people for the global age and driving to internationalize the campus, Hong Kong Baptist University (HKBU) vigorously promotes student exchange/study abroad opportunities with institutions outside Hong Kong. It is our hope that such interactions will help students from Hong Kong and all over the world broaden their horizons, build their international knowledge and cultural competency, and strengthen their communication skills. As they complete their studies at HKBU, they will be ready to meet the challenges of the global era and become informed global citizens.

Internship

Upholding the Whole Person Education philosophy of the University, the Faculty of Social Sciences of the Hong Kong Baptist University established the Internship Programmes in AY2005/06 for its undergraduate students. Internship provides an invaluable education experience for students and better prepares them for future career. It is a strategy in applied learning and a structured programme developed and supervised by the Faculty in collaboration with Partner Organizations. It is also a good vehicle to facilitate the employment of our graduates by reputable organizations, to promote the University among the local community and to nurture a group of potential freshmen in workplace. From AY2011/12 onwards, the Faculty introduced a credit-bearing internship programme which allows students to gain the real-work experience and obtain credits from the internship at the same time.

Field Trip

It is vital for geographic education to train students' observational power and hands-on skills. Hence, classroom teachings are often supplemented by fieldwork, and lab/practical sessions. To many students, fieldwork and project-based studies are the most welcoming aspects of the geographic education. The Geography Department has made the Annual Field Camp mandatory.
