(3-Year Curriculum, for HKALE Applicants)

Course Structure

 

The period of study and course requirement of students differ based on their different entrance qualifications. Please refer to the 'Study Scheme' of the major programmes for details.

 

The minor programme is optional. It normally requires 18 units of courses. A student who wishes to take a minor programme should formally register for her/his minor subject.

 

To earn the units for the courses studies, at the end of each term a student is required to sit for course examinations where prescribed and obtain a passing grade. Degree classification will be based on the Major Grade Point Average (GPA) of all major courses coded 3000 and above, and the overall GPA of all courses taken.
