个人理财教育文学硕士课程[MA(PFE)]的同学于2024年秋季参加了一系列实地考察活动，沉浸理财教育体验，了解香港的金融业与经贸发展。同学们参观了香港投委会理财教育体验馆、荃湾南丰纱厂、香港金管局资讯中心、中环的商贸金融地标等。
在投委会理财教育体验馆 （IFEC FinEd Hub），同学们通过各种理财互动游戏，了解个人理财或私人投资决策中需要注意的投资原则、风险评估、及基本的市场策略等；同学也认识了各类金融产品服务、投资工具的总体运作模式和特性。这些游戏体验，不仅能提升同学的基本理财素养，也为同学们今后参与理财教育、财经沟通的实践提供了重要借鉴，激发他们对“理财策划”“理财教育”的职业发展思考。
在中环，同学游览了部分金融地标建筑，例如恒生银行总行大厦、交易广场等，在漫步中环商贸区的过程中，见证香港金融业与经贸的历史变迁。认识金融监管环境，也是提升个人理财素养的重要议题。同学们参观了香港金管局资讯中心，初步了解了香港金融业的总体监管环境、金管局的工作、香港货币及银行的发展等。金管局资讯中心的专业导赏、展览内容、互动游戏，也让同学们认识到香港完善的金融监管对巩固国际金融中心地位的重要性。
这些考察活动，为同学提供丰富的课外学习机会，也让同学直观地感受到香港作为国际金融中心的魅力。
a) Kingston University London to EdUHK
The recent visit of Associate Professor, Dr Peter Hooda, from Kingston University London to the Department of Social Sciences and Policy Studies has significantly enriched our academic environment, exploring the potential of building up research and teaching network. His two enlightening talks on water contamination not only highlighted critical global challenges but also fostered international exchange. This engagement provided our students, particularly of BEd(Geog), BSc(IEM), and BSocSc(GES) programme, with invaluable exposure to cutting-edge research and diverse perspectives, enhancing their understanding of the environmental issues. Dr Hooda’s presence underscores the importance of academic mobility, as it bridges gaps between institutions and cultivates a vibrant scholarly community dedicated to addressing pressing global concerns.
b) EdUHK to Kingston University London and University of Leicester
Reciprocally, Dr Norman Cheung’s visit to Kingston University London was a remarkable academic exchange. His insightful talk on tropical cyclone climatology not only deepened students’ understanding of these complex weather phenomena but also sparked engaging discussions about their implications for disaster management and resilience. Furthermore, Dr Norman Cheung collaborated with Dr Andrew Miles at the University of Leicester on reviewing and enhancing the UK field trip curriculum for BEd(Geog) programme, ensuring that future students gain more practical and hands-on experience with global perspectives. This collaboration exemplifies the university’s commitment to fostering academic excellence and interdisciplinary partnerships that enhance student learning and research initiatives.
Mr Sai Htong Kham, a PhD student at the Department of Social Sciences and Policy Studies, was invited by the Center for Malaysian Studies of the Faculty of Internation Liberal Arts at the Soka University Japan to give a guest talk on his cross-national research in Myanmar and Thailand.
