Hong Kong is undeniably one of the world’s most dynamic cities in terms of trade, finance and general economic activity. And its status has certainly been enhanced by the rapid growth of globalisation and the fast pace of development in mainland China.

All this, though, has inevitably created demand for individuals with the international vision, regional expertise and in-depth knowledge to navigate their way – and lead others – through these changes.

Therefore, Lingnan University’s Department of Government and International Affairs (formerly Department of Political Science), has introduced a new taught Master of Arts in International Affairs (MAIA). It aims to provide postgraduates with an understanding of key subjects including international and comparative politics, developmental studies, international security, environmental politics, and Greater China plus issues like nationalism and political culture.
