Shanghai Cultural Exchange & Study Tour


Shanghai: Exchange, Experience, Exploration…

31 May – 4 June, 2017
Tour Coordinator: Mr. William LAI


To let students understand more about the concept of “The Belt and Road Initiative” as well as to learn more about the latest financial and technological development in China, a group of 25 students from various Concentration Studies including Financial Management, Business Administration, Psychology, Tourism and Hospitality Management and History and Hong Kong Studies set off for a 5-day study tour to Shanghai this summer.

During the visit to the Bank of Communication, students had learnt more about the market trends of the financial industry in China by exchanging views and opinions with the senior management of the bank.

Besides, students attended lectures in Fudan University and Shanghai University respectively. Professors gave inspiring presentations on their researches on “The Belt and Road Initiative” so that students could have a better understanding about the policy. Professors also talked about the role and potential opportunities of Hong Kong acting as one of the financial centres of China.

Apart from academic activities, students had a chance to visit many attractions in Shanghai. For example, the Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China, Ltd. (COMAC) where they could observe the manufacturing process of the C919 commercial aircraft and learn about its financing channels. They also benefited a lot from their subsequent visits to Shanghai Stock Exchange, Shanghai Financial Centre, Shanghai Science and Technology Museum and appreciated Chinese culture in Shanghai Temple, Yu Garden, Tian Zi Fang and Soong Ching Ling Memorial Residence. In conclusion, it was a fruitful learning experience for all the students.



上海探索:為兩年的學習生涯畫上完美句號

Neal LAM (Financial Management, Year 2)


我們第一站前往上海商用飛機有限公司,可以親眼目睹不對外公開的飛機製造過程,見證中國一日千里的科技發展。 我們又有機會參觀交通銀行位於上海的總部和博物館,與人工智能客服談話。銀行還安排了管理層及幾位部門主管來解答我們的提問,並與我們分享他們在該行業發展的心路歷程,現場氣氛十分熱烈。

其後,我們參觀了上海金融服務發展中心,與中心的研究部門主管一起探討香港與上海在中國金融界於過去、現在、未來所扮演的角色。

另外,我們亦到了復旦大學和上海大學,參與教授主持的講座,從而更加全面地了解一帶一路的構思,並感受國內同學的學習氛圍。

透過是次交流之旅,我不但掌握到中國金融市場的最新動向、見識到國內日新月異的科技發展,同時更細味到源遠流長的中國文化,實在是獲益良多,為我在國際學院兩年的學習生涯畫上完美句號。
