As one of the four divisions of the Community College of City University, the Division contributes to the personal and intellectual development of our students and to the needs of Hong Kong and the region in the areas of applied languages for professional communication and communication design.
The Division offers a wide range of self-financing associate degree programmes, in Applied Chinese Studies, Applied Japanese Studies, Digital Visual Design, English for Professional Communication, Media and Publication Design, Public Relations and Communications, Translation and Interpretation, and Bilingual Communication Studies (options in Chinese and English, Chinese and Japanese, English and Japanese, French and English, Korean and English, Korean and Chinese, and Spanish and English). All associate degrees will lead to City University of Hong Kong awards. Partner universities in the UK, Australia, France, Korea and Japan offer favourable entry conditions to the Division’s associate degree graduates. Degree programmes at CityU, HKU, CUHK and other local tertiary institutions also offer favourable entry conditions to qualified associate degree students. The Division has the expertise to run internationally recognised language tests and their preparatory courses in French, Korean, Putonghua, and Spanish through the College’s Centre for Lifelong Learning. Pre-associate degree students may gain entry to the Division’s associate degree programmes.
