Curricular Mapping of GE programme

Course designers should ensure that the proposed GE course(s) are designed to achieve the Programme Intended Learning Outcomes (PILOs) with varying levels of depth and breadth. It is mandatory for every GE course to address both PILO 1 and PILO 10 significantly. Each course must also fulfil its specific PILO requirements outlined in the curricular mapping of the GE programme approved by CityUHK’s Senate (see the Table below).
