As the doors of City University of Hong Kong (CityU) swung open in the bright morning, a throng of eager students streamed into the College of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences (CLASS) for the JUPAS Consultation Day on 20 May 2023. With enthusiasm and anticipation, the prospective students sought to discover the academic programmes available to them.
CLASS and its six departments, namely Department of Chinese and History (CAH), English (EN), Linguistics and Translation (LT), Media and Communication (COM), Public and International Affairs (PIA), Social and Behavioural Sciences (SS) arranged a kaleidoscope of dazzling activities. For example, the admission talks provided helpful information on the various programmes available at CLASS. From the expert seminars, laboratory equipment demonstrations, and VR tasters, the attendees also had a glimpse of what their academic studies would look like at CityU.
