MA in Chinese, 2022 Graduate
The MA in Chinese Programme provided me with not only literary training, but a broad perspective to both literature and the history of literature. Students were not restricted in classrooms or textbooks. There were plenty of workshops and local trips that strengthened the bonds between us and the land where we stood. Dedicated and devoted professors were always available through email, in their offices, or even at table. The close teacher-student relationship and friendly atmosphere at Lingnan guaranteed the considerate support and professional guidance for each of us, no matter which direction our interests lied in – research or creative writing, classics or modernity. Throughout the MA in Chinese Programme, I gradually understood that the power of literature and found it everywhere, whose magic hided in every character we wrote and read, every sound we made and heard, every story we told and received, as well as meaning in discourses crafted. In general, it was not a brand-new worldview that the degree equipped me with. What the 1-year studying experience offered was a thinking method, allowing me to reflect on the world, to recreate the world of literature and reality, and thus to recreate myself. |

MA in Curating and Art History, 2022 Graduate
The MACAH Programme has meant a lot to me. With this scholarship, I am grateful that my efforts and achievements have been seen and recognized throughout the year. Firstly, the professional knowledge I have gained has helped me understand the depth of art and its endless fascination in a way I could never have reached before. Secondly, the curriculum is incredibly cutting-edge, and the information and knowledge I received in class were so fresh and pioneering that it provided me with a seamless connection to contemporary art and a real insight into today's world. Finally, I felt that the programme office and the university are a heartfelt and responsible education system, with teachers who really care about teaching and learning, and a commitment to continually improving students' study experiences, which shifted my previous stereotypes of education authority while also offering me with a really enjoyable year on campus.

HUI Man Yee Tracy
MA in Curating and Art History, 2021 Graduate
My study in the MACAH programme enabled me to break stereotypes and broaden my understanding of art. The diverse courses offer me with professional skills in both curating and art history. I completed a dissertation on Chinese women artists in Qing under the compassionate guidance and supervision of Dr Michelle Huang. My critical thinking, research, and writing skills have improved my capacity to work at the gallery. I had the opportunity to work as an intern at the CUHK Art Museum last summer, the experience provided me more hands-on experience in museum operations. Thanks to the Graduate Scholarship, I now have more opportunities to get vast knowledge in the art field. My time with the MACAH programme has truly broadened my horizon and deepened my understanding of the art world.

CHAN Cheuk Lun Lewa
MA in Creative and Media Industries, 2022 Graduate
Studying in MACMI has been an eye-opening experience. An enthusiast of film, music, and visual art myself, it was very rewarding to learn about the industry. Also, having the chance to look at art and media through the lenses of philosophy made me understand the forms and values of our culture thoroughly. Work hard and you will learn a lot!
