"The postgraduate programme at SMLC was a game changer for my academic development. The quality of research supervision, the freedom and resources for academic inquiry, and, most invaluably, the collegial respect for postgraduates as independent researchers among faculty members – all these are increasingly rare gifts that one can still expect from HKU."

“I am Lin Hui, a postgraduate alumna at SMLC. Extremely enjoyed the multicultural and dynamic study environment at the programme of Global Creative Industries, I got inspired by outstanding research fellow students and world-leading professors, and I received insightful feedback from research seminars and presentations hosted by our department. These experiences pave the way for my doctoral studies”.
