Induction Day spells out CityU spirit
Over 800 new students met seniors, explored campus and built up their team spirit during the day-long event.
A new initiative by Student Development Services, the aim of the Induction Day was to encourage new students to enrich their University experience by discovering for themselves more about University life and the support available to them.
Professor Way Kuo, University President, and Professor Horace Ip Ho-shing, Vice-President (Student Affairs), officiated at the kick-off ceremony.
In his welcoming remarks, Professor Kuo urged students to treasure the opportunity to study at university, and encouraged them to develop friendships. He highlighted CityU’s unique Discovery-enriched Curriculum (DEC), which is designed to augment the learning experience through the integration of research and learning.

The ceremony was composed of inspiring and energetic programmes, including a demonstration by the CityU Karatedo Team, a performance by the SU Drama Society, and an alumni crossover talk hosted by Dr Raymond Chan Kwok-hong, Dean of Students.
