The Media and Public Relations Office (MPRO) released the first issue of UIC magazine New Dimensions at the launching ceremony on 28 November.
New Dimensions presents the college‘s latest achievements in the areas of teaching, learning, research, and its engagement with society. The unveiling of the magazine symbolises a new chapter of UIC’s periodicals, according to UIC President Prof Ng Ching-Fai. In his address, he continued that a liberal arts education could add diversity to China’s tertiary education and open up new dimensions within this landscape.
Uncovering the first issue of New Dimensions are Prof Ng Ching-Fai (2nd from l), President; Lilian Li (3rd from l), Assistant to President and Director of Secretarial Office; Dr Mona Sun (1st from l), Assistant Professor of the International Journalism Programme, and Chai Hi-Hing, Director of MPRO
Another speaker, Director of MPRO Chai Hi-Hing, called for support from students and staff to share their stories which he believed would help the college towards “new dimensions.” In addition to the UIC magazine, their stories can be told and shared on the college website as well as various social media channels.
