I am thrilled to welcome you to the Department of Health and Physical Education! Our department is dedicated to performing excellent research, nurturing exceptional physical educators and professionals, making a lasting impact on social progress and human well-being in Hong Kong and beyond. We aspire to lead in physical education, health education, and sports science through innovative educational research and development, and teaching excellence.
In today’s fast-paced world, understanding the importance of health and fitness is more crucial than ever. Enhancing population health and well-being, as well as promoting a longer health span, are at the forefront of our mission. I firmly believe that quality physical and health education is essential to achieving these goals. We aim not only to train outstanding educators and professionals but also to empower our students to become leaders and influencers in the fields of physical activity and health. To support this vision, we offer a comprehensive curriculum that not only covers essential health topics but also inspires students to actively engage in physical activities that enhance their quality of life. Our dedicated faculty is committed to fostering an inclusive and supportive environment, encouraging students to explore their strengths and maximize their potential both within the classroom and through our sports programs. Together, we aim to cultivate a culture of wellness that benefits our entire community.
With emerging technologies (e.g., artificial intelligence) and sporting scenes (e.g., newly emerged sports, eSports), sports science research is becoming more important and prominent in the media. Technology advancements also enable researchers to perform more interdisciplinary research; and we envisage ourselves to be at the forefront of engaging and impactful research that spans a wide range of topics within sports science and beyond. By applying the latest research and innovations in sport and exercise science, our work will transcend the professions of teaching and coaching, serving populations from grassroots to elite levels, and at all ages.
Thank you for visiting our website! I invite you to explore our resources, programs, and events. Let’s work together towards a healthier future!
Warm regards,
Professor Amy Ha, PhD
