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.
During the talk, Mr Kham shared his experience and insights on conducting qualitative fieldwork studies with the students. He also discussed with Dr Alex Chan Lih-shing, a Center for Malaysian Studies member, the possibility of developing a research project on the comparative research between Myanmar’s migrants in Japan and Malaysia.
