Welcoming Gathering 2016-17 (2nd Semester) @ HKU

About the Event

A Welcoming Gathering was held on 21 January 2017, for the new cohort of mainland Fung Scholars who come to exchange at the University of Hong Kong (HKU) in Spring semester 2017. The event was attended by over 30 Fung Scholars from Hong Kong Baptist University, Nanjing University, Peking University, Renmin University of China, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Sun Yat-sen University, Tsinghua University, Xiamen University and Zhejiang University. The event began with a warm welcoming speech by Mr. KM WONG, Director of the Victor and William Fung Foundation. After Mr. WONG’s opening remarks, three senior Fung Scholars, Blair AU YEUNG (FS2015-16, Hong Kong Baptist University), Xiaorui LIU (FS2014-15, Zheijang University) and Yi XIE (FS2016-17, Zhejiang University), were invited to share their study and exchange experiences with the participants. The event was ended with an ice-breaking game for the participants to get to know each other.

We wish the new batch of Fung Scholars a fruitful and rewarding exchange experience in Hong Kong.
