Programme Introduction
The BSc (EM) gives your career in education-focused administration a head-start, equipping students with career opportunities in schools, NGOs, and education-related organizations where care, ethics, and social responsibility are core to their business agenda. Our programme has a strong team of university-wide, inter-faculty, and inter-disciplinary instructors with academic and practitioner experiences in education and executive management. Professional preparation includes a broad and diversified spectrum of essential knowledge (e.g., grant proposal writing, human resource management, leading school entrepreneurship, etc.), and internship opportunities. Internship will be matched according to students’ career interests with our education, non-profit, and related private sector industry partners for placements in Hong Kong or the Greater Bay Area.

Notes:
(1) Mandatory Greater Bay Area activities/visits in course(s) are required.
(2) Students can take one 3-cp elective course at Master’s level during their studies. Students may use the 3 cps earned from this elective in replacement of the course - Organizational and Executive Management: Cross-cultural Perspective in the BSc(EM) Programme Package.
(3) Classes will be held in Tai Po Campus and Tseung Kwan O Study Centre / North Point Study Centre / Sports Centre / Kowloon Tong Satellite Study Centre as decided by the University.
(4) Students admitted into this programme are required to visit the Greater Bay Area (GBA) and/or other parts of Mainland China. The programme may also require students to participate in other non-local learning experience for completion of the programme. While the visits are subsidised, students are required to contribute part of the estimated cost of the visits ("students’ contribution"), whereas any personal entertainment, meals expenses, travel document fee and personal insurance costs shall be at students’ own expense. The estimated cost of the visits and students’ contribution for students admitted to the coming cohort is yet to be available due to a variety of factors such as inflation of cost of the visits, trip duration, traveling expenses, the exchange rate, etc.
Internship / Overseas Study Opportunities
- Students will take part in a placement at an internship agency in the local community or in the Greater Bay Area, with assessment and support to their work aspirations.
- The internship allows students to gain work experience in the education and non-profit organizations as well as practice the learned knowledge and executive management skills.
* The programme team has liaised strategic partners, including local schools and non-profit organizations, to provide internship opportunities for our students.
