UNIVERSITY
EXCHANGE
POSTGRADUATE STUDIES & RESEARCH
The
University Exchange
is scheduled to commence full operations from January 2007,
with its headquarters in Hong Kong, and have its six specialized faculties in place in initial form.
The program
will progressively offer external postgraduate study & research
opportunities to selected applicants in almost all countries by
means of a linked media system.
Other options
will be for partial or periodic term attendance at institutions
with which the exchange will have an association or for working
on commercially viable projects at outsourced science parks, industrial
incubators, or sites where the Exchange has its own installations
for specific projects.
In all cases
however, there would be virtually no attendances in lecture halls,
but rather access by video conferencing to allow students contact
with academics & researchers of international standing.
This means many
of the everyday lectures or overseers of these courses and research
projects could be expected to be world class leaders in their fields,
otherwise unavailable to such a widely distributed audience.
These prominent
academics & researchers could be either singly, or on behalf
of other Universities or Institutions, acting in association with
the Exchange from anywhere on the globe, as could be other participants.
