Non-credit Bearing General Education Programmes for the Second Semester, 2020 – 2021
"Dear____"

Who or what would you place in this blank space?
A person? A place? A pet? A year? A time?
Realistic? Imaginary? Surreal?

The theme of GE Programmes this semester is “Dear _____”. We hope to explore the relationships with our homes, with our loved ones, and with ourselves, especially in the world seriously disrupted by the pandemic.
We continue to offer GE programmes on a wide spectrum for students with different interests and aspirations. You are welcome to join our unique HKUer Journey in 2021. Let us all hope and work together for a better, brighter, and safer 2021 and beyond!
