Past visits and meetings

The Office of Academic Links (OAL) arranged ten visits and virtual meetings with overseas institutions between 28 September and 17 December 2020 for the purposes of strengthening ties and exploring collaboration opportunities.

Survey on incoming visitors

OAL maintains a database of international linkage activities that have taken place at CUHK, such as delegation visits, seminars or talks, conferences, symposiums, and workshops. CUHK departments and staff may find such information useful when exploring own partnership opportunities. In order for OAL to maintain an up-to-date record, CUHK departments and staff are invited to provide details of any visit or linkage activity by filling in the Record Form for International Linkages Activities.
