CPA

The programme aims to meet the rising demand for highly skilled talents in public management and public administration. With dual emphasis on public policy/administration and governance, this programme is designed to meet the labour market needs to promote fast development and good governance in the Greater Bay Area (GBA), particularly when Hong Kong Special Administrative Region will actively work with Macau Special Administrative Region and other nine cities in the Guangdong province. Anticipating more people to people interactions across borders would result in development issues, which requires public policy and governance measures appropriate for better economic, social and cultural integration across the GBA, the proposed programme will offer new insights and comparative / international perspectives for student learning. The Programme adopts an interdisciplinary learning approach to enhance student learning through cross-disciplinary teaching and learning, guiding students to engage in critical reflections on how to achieve high quality development and good governance. Students will have opportunities for experiential learning.
