The Tin Ka Ping Foundation Service-Learning (TKP-SL) Programme supports the design and implementation of credit-bearing service-learning courses, in which students are engaged to apply the knowledge and skills acquired in the classroom to serve the community. The Programme enables local and Mainland students to practise social responsibility through their learning, while gaining a deeper understanding of Chinese culture and values, developing advanced critical thinking skills, and ultimately emerging as globally-minded citizens of China.
The student subsidies will be provided to students who enrol in the funded courses. Financial support will not be provided to self-funded undergraduate programmes.
