Dean’s Message

Welcome to the College of Humanities and Social Sciences (CHASS) of City University of Hong Kong. 

CHASS offers a broad range of professionally oriented programmes at undergraduate and postgraduate levels. These programmes provide our students with the latest knowledge and skills in their chosen field, and prepare the students for successful careers and fulfilling lives by encouraging a thirst for knowledge and cultivating lifelong learning skills.

CHASS provides opportunities for rich out-of-classroom learning experiences, which are designed to expose students to the world of work, their community and other cultures, and to instil a sense of social responsibility, cultural understanding, teamwork and care for others.

We offer research degrees to the PhD level and conduct research that seeks practical solutions to problems while at the same time advancing knowledge. CHASS also contributes to Hong Kong and the region through consultancy and outreach work.

Through its many activities, CHASS plays a key role at CityU, and is a major factor in its success. We look forward to growing even stronger in the years ahead, thanks to the efforts of our staff, students, alumni, supporters and friends.
