This programme provides a platform for undergraduate and postgraduate students from around the world to develop advanced methodologies for conducting research projects. Covering both qualitative and quantitative techniques, the courses offer students a unique opportunity to meet HKU leading scholars in their areas, to develop professional networks, and to broaden their set of research skills. Students will also be able to develop systematic knowledge of how to write about their research and apply such knowledge to their writing in a professional manner both within and beyond their degree. These knowledge and skills developed through the programme will equip students with the capacity to become effective members of a research community.
