Named Professorships

Based on a firm liberal arts foundation, Lingnan University is committed to academic and research excellence. 

Endowed professorships and chair professorships were established to attract and retain high-calibre scholars with distinctive teaching, research, and scholarship backgrounds. Appointment of an endowed professorship or chair professorship is one of Lingnan’s most prestigious means of recognition for scholarly achievement and distinction. 

Donors may choose to name a professorship or chair professorship of a specific academic area. Holders of named professorships and chair professorships will be able to use their distinguished titles on all occasions, including research papers, publications, in the media, and at events.

​Your generous support for the distinctive academic and research work of our scholars would be much appreciated. Please contact us for more information.
