- 27-28 April 2026
The Hang Seng University of Hong Kong (HSUHK) is strengthening its international profile through new strategic partnerships with two leading UK institutions – Durham University and the University of Glasgow.
Professor Mok Ka-ho, Provost and Vice-President (Academic and Research) and concurrently the Dean of the Graduate School, visited both universities on 27 and 28 April 2026 to build closer academic ties and create exciting new opportunities for students and faculty.
Advancing student global mobility
At Durham University, Professor Mok signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) that paves the way for joint academic programmes, enhanced research collaboration, staff exchanges, and co-hosted international symposium and seminar series.
During his visit to the University of Glasgow, Professor Mok held productive discussions with the Dean of the School of Education and senior academic leaders to explore collaborative opportunities in teaching and research, with a strong emphasis on promoting international student mobility.
Commitment to internationalisation
Speaking about the new partnerships, Professor Mok said, "these collaborations with world-class UK universities will greatly enrich the learning experience at HSUHK. Our students and faculty will benefit from broader global exposure, valuable cross-cultural exchanges, and exciting new avenues for academic and professional growth."
The new partnerships reflect HSUHK's ongoing commitment to internationalisation and delivering a high-quality, globally oriented education that prepares graduates for success in an interconnected world.
