003 William K. M. Lee 李經文 Director 院長 Message from the Director 院長序言 Welcome to the Autumn 2026 Prospectus. This year has brought important developments with implications for our strategic directions. “Contributing to Human Capital Development in the Greater Bay Area (GBA)” is one important direction of the School’s Strategic Plan for 2025-2030. To meet the diverse learning needs of individuals in the GBA, HKU SPACE has launched a series of one-year full-time Postgraduate Diploma (PgD) programmes tailored for students from the Chinese Mainland. In January 2026, the School hosted the Inauguration Ceremony in HKU with over 80 students enrolled in the first cohort of 5 PgD programmes, marking a new chapter in the School's academic development for the Chinese Mainland. 19 PgD programmes spanning five major fields are planned to launch in 2026/27. Building on the success of the inaugural GBA Education Conference in 2024, the second Conference, co-hosted by the School of Continuing Education of Sun Yat-sen University (SYNU), was successfully held on 14 May 2026 at the historic SYNU Guangzhou campus. In addition, a field trip from 13 to 15 May 2026 was conducted to visit prominent enterprises in Guangzhou, including companies from environmental technology, biomedical innovation, and advanced manufacturing. The School also visited the new SYNU Guangming campus to discuss further collaboration to broaden our impact and engage more lifelong learning practitioners. Another important breakthrough involves the establishment of official accounts on the popular Chinese Mainland social media platforms Xiaohongshu (XHS) and WeChat by the end of 2025, creating direct interactive platforms for the School with potential students in the GBA. Preparation for the introduction of the reformed Post-Secondary College Ordinance (Cap. 320) continues. The School anticipates that the formal accreditation exercise will take place in the summer of 2027. HKU SPACE continues to advance its AI development through a structured roadmap integrating AI into teaching, learning, and operations. Reflecting this strategic focus, the second Community College Academic Conference was held on 5 June 2026 at the Kowloon East Campus under the theme AI and Higher Education. The Conference featured over 30 panel discussions, a book exhibition, demonstrations by the HKU SPACE ELearning Team, and student poster presentations. In addition, the School is developing its guidelines on the use of Gen AI which will be made available as soon as possible. Internationalisation is a key focus of the School’s Strategic Plan. We continue to build on our more than 60-year partnership with the University of London, especially the Laws Programme. The Economics, Management, Finance and the Social Sciences Programmes (EMFSS), with academic direction provided by the London School of Economics and Political Science, have been ranked first in The Times and The Sunday Times Good University Guide for two consecutive years. Moreover, our students achieved outstanding results in 2025-26. Our longstanding collaboration with Charles Sturt University has also gained global recognition, with its Information Studies programmes ranked among the world’s top 100. In addition, we are pleased to have established a new partnership with Queen’s University in Canada. HKU SPACE has been awarded the “Sing Tao Service Brand Award – Best Continuing Education Institution” for the 19th consecutive year. The School was also honoured for the second year in a row with the “Articulation Degree and Continuing Education Institution” award, receiving two major accolades. These awards further consolidate our leading position in the local continuing education sector. We also remain active with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Our Microcredential series goes from strength to strength with over 480 Microcredential courses on offer, generally of 6, 9 or 12 QF credits. Over 5,000 students enrolled in these courses in 2025/26 and more courses will be available in 2026/27. Most are eligible for Continuing Education Fund (CEF) support. Overall, 2026 has been a remarkable year filled with accomplishments. I trust that readers will discover courses in this 2026 Autumn Prospectus that suit their professional growth, ongoing education goals, or lifelong learning ambitions throughout the remainder of this year and into 2027. 歡迎閱覽《2026年秋季課程手冊》。本年度有多項重要發展，對我們的策略 方向帶來深遠影響。 「促進大灣區人力資本發展」是學院《2025-2030年發展策略》的重要方向之 一。為滿足大灣區內人士多元化的學習需求，學院推出了一系列為內地學 子度身訂造的一年全日制深造文憑（研究生文憑）課程。2026年1月，學院 於香港大學舉行了開學典禮，迎來首屆五個深造文憑課程逾80名學生，為 學院在中國內地的學務發展揭開新篇章。學院計劃於2026/27學年將開辦 19個深造文憑課程，涵蓋五大領域。 繼2024年首屆大灣區教育論壇成功舉辦後，由學院與中山大學繼續教育學 院合辦的第二屆論壇，已於2026年5月14日在歷史悠久的中山大學廣州校 區圓滿舉行。此外，學院於2026年5月13日至15日期間，參訪了廣州多家 知名企業，包括環保科技、生物醫藥創新及先進製造等領域。學院亦造訪 了中山大學新落成的光明校區，以商討進一步的合作計劃，藉此擴大學院 在大灣區的影響力，從而吸引更多推動終身學習的機構一同參與。 本年度另一項重要突破是，在2025年底於內地熱門社交媒體平台小紅書 和微信開設了學院官方帳號，為學院與大灣區潛在學生建立了直接的互動 平台。 為應對經修訂的《專上學院條例》（第320章）所做的準備工作仍在進行中。 預計政府對學院的評審工作將於2027年夏季進行。 我們繼續透過一套系統化的發展藍圖，將人工智能整合到教與學和營運之 中，以推進學院人工智能發展。為體現此策略重點，第二屆香港大學附屬 學院學術會議特以「人工智能與高等教育」為主題，已於2026年6月5日在 九龍東分校順利舉行。會議內容包括逾30場小組討論、書籍展覽、由學院 網絡教學小組進行的示範環節，以及學生海報展示。 此外，學院正制訂有關使用生成式人工智能工具的指引，並將儘快公佈。 國際化是學院《發展策略》的一大重點方向。我們繼續深化與倫敦大學逾60 年的合作夥伴關係，特別是法律課程。由倫敦政治經濟學院提供學術主導 的經濟學、管理學、金融學及社會科學（EMFSS）課程，已連續兩年於《泰 晤士報》與《星期日泰晤士報》「優秀大學指南」榮登榜首。在2025-26學年， 透過學院修畢倫大課程的學生均取得了亮麗成績。我們與澳洲查爾斯特大 學的長期合作亦獲得全球認可，其圖書館與資訊管理學科躋身全球百強。 此外，我們很高興與加拿大京士頓皇后大學建立了新的合作夥伴關係。 學院已連續第19年獲頒「星鑽服務品牌選舉 — 最佳持續進修教育學府」服 務大獎，並連續第二年榮獲「銜接學位進修教育學院」獎項，榮膺兩大殊 榮。這些獎項進一步鞏固我們在本地持續教育界的領導地位。我們同時亦 繼續積極響應聯合國可持續發展目標。 我們的微證書課程持續發展強勁，目前提供超過480門微證書課程，一般 為6、9或12個資歷架構學分。在2025/26學年，有超過5,000名學生報讀 這些課程，預計在2026/27學年將會推出更多課程。學院大部分微證書課 程均符合持續進修基金的資助資格。 總體而言，2026年已是成績斐然的一年。我相信讀者將能在這本《2026年 秋季課程手冊》中找到合適的課程，在今年餘下的月份和未來一年，能滿足 您在專業發展、進修深造的學習需要，以及實踐追求終身學習的願望。
