The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) launched the first Chinese Academy of Social Sciences (CASS) Scholars Visit Programme in 2012 to establish closer linkage with CASS. Under this programme, 3 CASS scholars are invited to visit CUHK each year and deliver public lectures in the Lecture Series by CASS Scholars. The programme presents a valuable opportunity to strengthen the tie between CUHK and CASS in terms of high-level research exchanges, paving the way for further collaboration.
