The Associate Degree Programme (AD) is governed by the HKBU quality assurance policies and practices.

Upon completion of the AD Programme, students will be awarded an Associate of Arts or an Associate of Science by HKBU.

Since the establishment of the College, CIE has nurtured over ten thousand AD graduates who were successfully articulated to local and overseas undergraduate programmes.

In the past 3 years, there were around 1,700 AD graduates who undertook undergraduate studies in the eight UGC-funded local universities.

The AD curriculum framework has adopted the HKBU UGC-funded Undergraduate Programme as a blueprint. Certain areas of Concentration Studies such as Music Studies and Visual Arts are offered in collaboration with different Faculties/Schools of HKBU and taught by university lecturers.
