The Master of Arts in Digital Humanities for Cultural Professionals, the only programme of its kind in Hong Kong, provides quality education to individuals who want to equip themselves with digital skills to work in the creative and cultural sectors in Hong Kong, and the Greater Bay Area. Building on the synergy between Cultural Studies and Information Technology, it allows students and professionals to develop skills in cultural management, digital technologies and (big) data analysis and to provide cutting-edge innovation in the cultural and creative industries.

The Master of Arts in Digital Linguistics and Intercultural Communication (MADLIC) is designed to cultivate students’ intercultural and multicultural awareness while strengthening their ability to use digital tools and applied linguistic knowledge to communicate effectively with people from diverse cultural backgrounds. The programme combines theoretical coursework with hands-on training, integrating applied linguistics, digital technologies, and intercultural communication strategies. Students will explore how language is shaped and interpreted in digital environments, and how computational and communication technologies (e.g., digital writing, language resources, and online interaction platforms) can support translation, meaning-making, and collaboration across cultures in professional workplaces. Through guided practice in professional discourses and real-world communicative scenarios, students develop the skills to analyse linguistic needs, evaluate digital communication practices, and produce context-appropriate and nuanced intercultural communication outputs.

MAGHE is an interdisciplinary programme and brings together courses in global history, the history of education and comparative education. It is geared towards a deeper understanding of the present state of education and will provide students a grounded perspective on the future. The programme aims at cultivating graduates with an awareness of the historical processes that forged and continue to shape modern education systems in East Asia and worldwide, and thereby equips students with professionally relevant academic knowledge. It can also serve as a stepping stone for doctoral studies.
