Li & Fung Group supports our developing language teachers' overseas immersion programmes

To improve students' language fluencies and raise their language teaching standards, the HKIEd's 15-week overseas immersion programme for language enhancement is now compulsory for all full-time students majoring in Chinese or English language teaching. For financially-disadvantaged students, however, this does mean an extra financial burden, as all programme participants have to shoulder part of the expenses incurred when they go overseas or visit mainland China.


To celebrate its centenary, the Li & Fung Group set up a special endowment fund this year, called the Li & Fung Scholarships, under which first-degree students from Hong Kong and mainland China can apply for sponsorships for their overseas studies. In mid-2006, we very gratefully received a generous donation from this scholarship scheme. As a result, from this academic year onward, at least 20 students a year will receive sponsorship towards their English language immersion programmes overseas. The Institute wishes to extend our most sincere gratitude to the Li & Fung Group for their generosity. The kind support will help relieve the financial burden of our students and enable them to focus more closely on their studies .
