? Why choose the HKMI? |
|
| |
| |
?? If you're ready to begin university study in Hong Kong , you have many programmes to choose from. You're probably wondering, 'What makes the HKMI special? Why should I choose to study there?' In this section, we think you'll find convincing answers to these crucial questions. |
| |
?? True flexibility |
?? The HKMI offers unparalleled flexibility in study methods, and is therefore particularly suitable for busy Hong Kong people who would find it hard to fit frequent class attendance into their schedules. |
| |
?? At the HKMI, you can study distance learning courses wherever you want, and whenever you want. You are not confined by having to attend lectures at a fixed time or place as in most full-time or part-time face-to-face programmes. This flexibility is one of the major advantages of distance education, the mode of teaching and learning that the HKMI uses for most of its courses. |
| |
?? The HKMI also gives you greater freedom than most other universities in deciding what subject to study, and the pace at which you complete your programme. There are no time limits on how long you can take to finish a qualification. |
| |
?? Also, the HKMI gives you the built-in flexibility provided by multiple exit points and articulated programmes. You can choose to study for a Certificate or Diploma first, for example, then extend your study to the degree level if you wish, without having to reapply. Likewise, if you're planning on finishing a degree, you can also choose to stop for a while along the way, and take a Certificate or Diploma once you've reached the relevant exit point. |
| |
?? Learning for all |
??? Admission to the HKMI is open to anyone in Hong Kong over the age of 18. The HKMI is unique among Hong Kong tertiary institutions in that it has no entry requirements for most of its first degree distance learning programmes . Exit standards, however, are rigorous. |
| |
?? What the HKMI offers |
| |
?? The HKMI offers you a range of flexible study options: |
| |
| ?? 1.Distance learning. The majority of our students are enrolled in distance education. Much of the teaching and learning is achieved by means of course packages that contain specially structured learning materials such as printed study units, supplementary readings and assignment questions. These are supplemented by face-to-face tutorials held in the evenings or at weekends. In addition, most HKMI distance courses use media such as video and audio programmes, computer software, CD-ROMs and broadcast TV, and most incorporate online components that enrich student learning and communication. |
| |
?? 2. Part-time face-to-face learning. This is offered for a limited number of programmes and courses (e.g. Liberal Studies, Applied Translation), usually because of their special nature. Classes are usually held in the evenings and at weekends. These comprise both lectures, at which much of the learning material is presented, and tutorials, in which discussion and other interactive learning activities take place. |
