Professional English Final Year Project
For 30 years, the Department of English has been at the forefront of equipping students with the necessary skills for the workforce through its esteemed Professional English Final Year Project (FYP) Programme.
By engaging in collaborative work within small groups and acting in the role of project consultants, students are provided with the opportunity to be affiliated with a sector leading host organization for a duration of one year. Throughout this immersive experience, students not only acquire a diverse range of transferable skills, but also establish a valuable network of professional connections. Here they learn to effectively apply the knowledge acquired in the classroom context to real-world scenarios.
The FYP Programme ensures that our students enter the job market as highly-employable, accomplished and consummate young professionals.
Some of our current partners include: corporations such as Branding Records and South China Morning Post Morning Studio, as well as NGOs like Orbis, Hong Kong Generation Next Arts.
