Dean's Message
Prof. Hongbin Cai Dean, HKU Business School | It is with great pride that I introduce the Bachelor of Global Leadership, Innovation and Society (BGLIS), a pioneering undergraduate programme at HKU Business School designed to shape the next generation of leaders.
In an era where artificial intelligence and emerging technologies are fundamentally transforming business and society, we need leaders who can navigate this revolution with both technical sophistication and ethical clarity. The BGLIS programme meets this challenge by integrating rigorous AI training with deep expertise in business, economics, and policy—enhanced by transformative global experiences.
Our students will develop a profound understanding of how AI and other innovations work, while learning to deploy them responsibly and creatively to address the world's most pressing challenges. Through this distinctive education, they will build critical thinking abilities and acquire the creative mindsets and networks essential for leadership in an age of unprecedented change.
This flagship programme embodies HKU Business School's commitment to innovation and impact. Led by distinguished faculty from multiple HKU faculties, complemented by international scholars and industry experts, the BGLIS features immersive experiences across Asia, Europe, and North America, offering an education unlike any other.
I warmly invite you to explore this transformative programme and join us in shaping a future where technological innovation and human leadership converge to create positive global change. |
