Firstly introduced in the academic year 1999-2000, with the aim of facilitating exchanges between our Department and the Departments of Psychology at Peking University and National Taiwan University, the Student Visitors Exchange Programme is organized annually. Undergraduate and postgraduate students, together with faculty members from three universities meet together to exchange ideas and experiences about psychological research and education in these three Chinese societies.

CUHK offers over 230 student exchange programmes. There are different types of student exchange programmes (including university-wide, college, faculty and department). University-wide student exchange programmes are administered by the Office of Academic Links and are available to all CUHK students. Students may also participate in student exchange programmes offered through their Colleges, Faculties and Departments.

Summer-to-summer exchange programmes are offered with various overseas institutions that allow undergraduate students to take credit-bearing courses overseas during the summer holiday. Students can choose courses from a variety of disciplines, including arts, business, engineering, law, science and social sciences, as well as getting the opportunity to explore the host country and its culture.

In addition to the Summer Exchange Programme, a number of other short-term study-abroad (fee-paying) options are offered by non-CUHK units.
