CUHK 45th Anniversary Lecture— "Rhodes Scholars at CUHK"

 

Jointly organised by the Office of Student Affairs and the Alumni Affairs Office of CUHK, the CUHK 45th Anniversary Lecture― "Rhodes Scholars at CUHK" was held on 16 April 2009 at LT6, Teaching Complex at Western Campus.

 

Since the launch of the Rhodes Scholarship in Hong Kong in 1985, twelve CUHK graduates have been awarded the Scholarship and furthered their studies at the University of Oxford, making CUHK the local university with the most Rhodes Scholars. Six of them are graduates of United College. These young Scholars have subsequently excelled in a variety of industries ranging from law, banking and finance, to social sciences.

 

Four Rhodes Scholars from CUHK, namely Mr William Wong Ming-fung, Barrister-at-Law (94/UC/BBA); Mr Jack Wong Chak-kei, Managing Director, Investment Banking, Barclays Capital Asia Limited (96/NA/EEE); Dr Amanda Lee Pui-shan from banking industry (98/UC/EEE); and Ms Jade Lai Wing-yu, Manager (Research) of Bauhinia Foundation Research Centre (00/CC/SOC), attended the lecture as guest speakers. During the lecture, they spoke on the importance of international perspectives and shared their academic pursuit and experiences in studying at Oxford with over a hundred university and secondary school students. Through face-to-face interactions with outstanding role models, students received first-hand advice on various issues, which broadened their horizons and strengthened their global awareness.
