Hong Kong, which was returned to China in 1997 after more than 150 years as a British Crown Colony, is a fascinating interweave of seeming opposites: bobbing fishing junks alongside luxury yachts; shimmering skyscrapers beside pagodas; state-of-the-art shopping complexes and alleyway market stalls. With its mixture of Western and Eastern values, culture and traditions, Hong Kong is an ideal gateway to China and all of Asia.

What You Need to Know
Syracuse University's Hong Kong program offers you the opportunity to study the political economies, business, and cultures of East Asia at a pivotal moment in the region's history. As Hong Kong continues to move forward as a Special Administrative Region (SAR) of the People's Republic of China, students not only study–but also participate within–a political landscape and marketplace that will be as important to the 21st century as the U.S. was to the 20th.
Campus and Program
The Syracuse academic program, hosted by City University of Hong Kong, is designed to allow students to complete 12-14 credit hours of coursework in economics, political science, history, Chinese (Mandarin), or business. City U offers 80 Bachelor and Associate degrees as well as 50 post-graduate programs. The University is known for it’s professional programs that combine real world experience with research and study. Extensive field study and intensive internships are key components of the modular academic program.
