The IMCSP programme is offered by the Department of Sociology and Social Policy (SOCSP) with support of the Institute of Policy Studies (IPS) and the Centre for Social Policy and Social Change (CSPSC) at Lingnan University.

The faculty of the IMCSP programme are internationally recognised experts and frequently contribute to leading peer-reviewed journals in the academic field of Social Policy.

Your professors are leading the critical developments in comparative social policy analysis, design, advocacy and delivery. They are serving as editors of leading journals, such as Journal of Asian Public Policy as well as book series, such as Research in Comparative and Global Social Policy, Comparative Development and Policy in Asia, and Social Policy and Development Studies in East Asia.

Ms. WEN Bo
The one-year study and life in Lingnan University went very quickly. During the study in theIMCSP Programme, my horizons were broadened and I learned about comparative theory and research methods. Compared to before, I have gained insights on social issues and a new cognition of social policies. After returning to the mainland, I will apply what I have learned to enhance my work and life. Ms WEN Bo (IMCSP Graduate)
