2014/15傑出青年學者獎(Early Career Award)

Early Career Scheme is one of the earmarked research grants offer by Hong Kong Research Grant Council. It is intended to nurture junior academics and to prepare them for a career in education and research. All proposals are subject to a rigorous peer review process via the RGC's five subject panels supported by an international network of expert reviewers. The Early Career Award is an honorary title with additional amount of $100,000 for those awardees who submitted a satisfactory Education Plan. My project named "A study on Dialect Literature Movement in post-war Hong Kong" was rated full score 5.0 and received Early Career Award in 2014/15. The project is aimed at a profound study on the movement to reveal its value and meaning to modern Chinese literature and also the special influence of Hong Kong which was a colonial city that forced leftists to revise their strategies on dialect writing.
