Bachelor of Business Administration (Honours) in various majors (Non-government-funded senior-year places)工商管理榮譽學士(含不同主修專業)(非政府資助高年級學額)

18 College of Business

The Bachelor of Business Administration (Hons) programme is offering 200 non-government-funded senior-year places for admission in 2012. Together with the 286 BBA government-funded senior-year places, a total of 486 BBA senior-year places are available. The places are distributed to various BBA majors as indicated in the table below.

Applicants who would like to apply for admission to BBA senior-year places (government-funded or non-government-funded places) should choose the programme(s) from the list below to apply. Multiple applications to different BBA programmes are acceptable.

Successful applicants who are offered Advanced Standing II will be admitted to the senior year. For details about the curriculum structure and award requirements for Advanced Standing II students, please visit http://www.cityu.edu.hk/arro/catalogue/UC.htm.

The allocation of government-funded and non-government-funded places to offered applicants will be based on merit. Applicants who fail to gain a government-funded place may be considered for a non-government funded place. The tuition fee for non-government-funded places is set at a higher level (HK$2,500 per credit). Entrants of government-funded and non-government-funded places will graduate with the same award title of the programme that they are admitted to.

All applicants are asked to take note of the university policy that there should not be any cross-subsidization between government-funded and non-government-funded places. Thus, non-government-funded students will likely NOT be able to get the same amount of subsidy for student development programmes in the College of Business such as student exchange, internship and overseas study trips. Further details will be provided by respective programme departments after admission to the University in September 2012.

Please refer to the respective programme pages for details.

Japan’s economic presence in Hong Kong and the mainland of China through courses, dinner talks and guest lectures by prominent scholars and business leaders.

Start Your Career HereNew opportunities for innovative businesses are opening as Japan continues its dramatic economic restructuring. The last several years have seen a surge in foreign investment as companies from around the globe (including Hong Kong) successfully tap into the world’s third largest economy and one of the world’s richest consumer markets. At the same time, more and more Japanese companies are moving their manufacturing operations to the mainland of China or sourcing products from the mainland via Hong Kong.

Graduates of this programme, with their knowledge of business, Japanese, English (and often Putonghua), are in a particularly good position to launch careers related to these new trends. Recent graduates have joined Japanese companies in Hong Kong or companies and organisations dealing with Japan. Other graduates have capitalised on their solid business training to pursue careers not directly connected with Japan.

Our TargetThis full-time degree programme is offered by the College of Science and EngineeringwithsupportfromtheDepartmentofCivilandArchitecturalEngineeringand theDivisionofBuildingScienceandTechnology.The programme seeks to provide a basis for continuing professional development, and encouragement for professional specialisation or higher academic study, particularly for holders of an associate degree or higher diploma in architectural studies looking for articulation with a corresponding full-time bachelor’s degree programme.

The programme is designed to prepare graduates for a multidisciplinary professional practice of architecture by equipping them with a deep understanding of diverse architectural knowledge, a command of technology and integration that will enable them to serve the building industry as architects or other professionals. Graduates will become the driving force behind innovative and creative architectural designs that reflect a balance and integration of design and technology.

Start Your Career HereThe programme aims to provide students with a sound professional and technological foundation to pursue higher professional degree study.

With the fast pace of urbanisation in mainland China and the rest of Asia, millions of people will move to the cities in the coming decades. Constructing new towns and restoring old towns is an immense task. In developed countries, particularly the United States, there is one architect for every 1,500 people. In Hong Kong, the number is one in every 3,500, and on the mainland, an architect will serve on average more than 100,000 people. The number of architectural professionals in mainland China and throughout Asia is far from enough to meet the increasing social demand and the growth that may come as the economy improves and the property market recovers.

How You Get In — for Direct or non-JUPAS ApplicantsTo be eligible for admission, you must hold an associate degree or higher diploma in Architectural Studies or an equivalent qualification from a local or non-local recognised instition. An award of credit is normally required to ensure the academic standard of the programme.Applicants may be required to attend an admission interview.

What You Will Be StudyingThe courses in the curriculum are divided into six subject areas:• Communication• Design/Studio• Environment• History/Culture• Practice• TechnologyThecurriculumisstructuredaroundtheArchitecturalDesignstudiosequence, supplemented by a broad spectrum of core and elective courses covering the subject areas.

ThefirsttwoArchitecturalDesignstudiosseektostrengthenyouroverallgrasp of the field, with studies on the development process of spatial ideas and an emphasis on building typology and urbanism respectively.

The final studio, the year-longArchitecturalDesign:Materials,Technology and Technics, epitomises the multidisciplinary-integrative-technological approach that is fundamental to the curriculum. This studio runs in conjunction with the year-long Final Year Project, which allows you to undertake in-depth research of an engineering/technological aspect related to the design studio project under the supervision of an academic staff.
