MISSION
MESSAGE
FROMTHE PRESIDENT THE UNIVERSITY
Lingnan University is committed to the provision of quality education
distinguished by the best liberal arts tradition.
It adopts a whole-person approach to education which enables its
students to think, judge, care and, ultimately,
act responsibly in the changing circumstances
of Hong Kong, the region and the world.
The cultural diversity brought by incoming students from different
countries helps us create a distinctive learning environment that
benefits both local and non-local students. We at Lingnan are
dedicated to furthering our internationalisation efforts through
Non-Local Student Scholarships to recruit outstanding students for
our undergraduate programmes. With the implementation of the
four-year curriculum in 2012, new campus facilities and upgraded
infrastructure are gradually in place to support the increasing
number of international students. Lingnan will continue to play a
proactive role in driving academic and cultural exchanges in the
years ahead.
