HSUHK is the first self-financed university in Hong Kong to earn this international and professional accreditation, which recognises HSUHK\u2019s outstanding development in business education.<\/p><p>The AACSB review committee recognises institutions that demonstrate a focus on excellence in all areas, including teaching, research, curriculum development, and student learning. The committee also acknowledges HSUHK\u2019s commitment in earning its accreditation, as it reflects the University\u2019s dedication towards students, alumni, the larger business community, and the overall higher education sector. Stephanie M Bryant, Executive Vice President and Chief Accreditation Officer of AACSB said \u201cToday\u2019s students are tomorrow\u2019s business leaders, and the addition of the School of Business of HSUHK to the network of AACSB-accredited business schools will have a lasting positive impact for their institution, both locally and globally.\u201d<\/p><p>Professor Simon S M Ho, President of HSUHK, is delighted to see its School of Business receives this international accreditation, and says \u201cHSUHK is committed to benchmarking itself against the highest international standards. Obtaining accreditation as the first-ever self-financed university in Hong Kong is full recognition of the quality of our teaching programmes and research. HSUHK will continue to uphold its unique \u2018Liberal + Professional\u2019 education model, and provide students with innovative business education as we keep abreast of the times. Our faculty team will also proactively and continuously improve the teaching and research quality to help students unleash their potentials and nurture them to become future business leaders.\u201d<\/p><p>Professor Bradley Barnes, Dean of the School of Business of HSUHK, said that their faculty team was further encouraged by obtaining the accreditation, \u201cThe AACSB accreditation provides us with the deserved recognition of our outstanding teaching quality. I wish to congratulate my amazing staff for their continued commitment on this five-year journey of preparation. Over this period, along with our colleagues, we have helped transform the School from a humble management college into probably Hong Kong\u2019s most popular and fastest growing university business school. With our concerted effort, HSUHK is also listed 18th in the \u2018Best Business and Management Universities in China 2023\u2019 assessment, as announced by the leading academic research portal Research.com.\u201d<\/p><p>Founded in 1916, AACSB is the longest-serving and largest business education network. AACSB brings together leaders from diverse communities in both academia and business to set the highest quality standards in business education. Less than six percent of the world\u2019s schools offering business and management degree programmes hold AACSB accreditation.<\/p><p><\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-4baf110 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"4baf110\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-35c7540\" data-id=\"35c7540\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-38ca828 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"38ca828\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hsu.edu.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/DSC08394-14.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"DSC08394-14\" data-elementor-lightbox-description=\" AACSB peer review team visit\n\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img width=\"600\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hsu.edu.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/DSC08394-14-1140x760.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"AACSB peer review team visit\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hsu.edu.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/DSC08394-14-1140x760.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/www.hsu.edu.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/DSC08394-14-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.hsu.edu.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/DSC08394-14-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.hsu.edu.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/DSC08394-14.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\"> AACSB peer review team visit\n<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-f9262c7 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"f9262c7\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-955ec1a\" data-id=\"955ec1a\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cbb0bb4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"cbb0bb4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img width=\"600\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hsu.edu.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/website-photo-1140x855.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"HSUHK is the first self-financed university in Hong Kong to receive AACSB international accreditation.\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hsu.edu.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/website-photo-1140x855.png 1140w, https:\/\/www.hsu.edu.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/website-photo-768x576.png 768w, https:\/\/www.hsu.edu.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/website-photo-360x270.png 360w, https:\/\/www.hsu.edu.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/website-photo.png 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\"> HSUHK is the first self-financed university in Hong Kong to receive AACSB international accreditation.\n<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Dear Students and Colleagues, You are cordially invited to attend the Public Lecture: \u201cPhenomenology of Music\u201d cum Inauguration of UNESCO Co-Chairs on Global Asia.
