• student-centred approach in teaching and learning, as well as student development;
• staff’s caring attitude towards students;

• In 2023, the articulation rate reached 90.7%. Among these graduates, 81.2% were admitted to undergraduate programmes offered by the eight UGC-funded local universities.
• The College places great emphasis on providing different articulation opportunities for students. Students can take the ”2+2” study mode and earn a Bachelor‘s Degree in 4 years.

The wide range of choices in our curriculum and flexibility in choosing elective courses cater to different interests, talents and aspirations of our students.

The AD curriculum framework has adopted the HKBU UGC-funded Undergraduate Programme as a blueprint. Certain areas of Concentration Studies such as Music Studies and Visual Arts are offered in collaboration with different Faculties/Schools of HKBU and taught by university lecturers.
