UEA welcomes Hong Kong Metropolitan University students for the ninth year
By: Communications
2025 marks the ninth consecutive year that UEA has welcomed students from Hong Kong Metropolitan University (HKMU) for the Business and Culture Study Programme.
Norwich Business School (NBS), supported by colleagues from UEA’s Global Programmes team, delivered an immersive business and culture programme showcasing a rich experience of UEA, the city of Norwich, and the wider region that builds understanding and interest of both life and study in the UK.
Throughout May and June, UEA hosted two cohorts of around 40 students for two weeks each, with the final cohort completing their experience on Friday 27 June.
The students experienced a range of sessions on business topics throughout the two weeks, alongside social and cultural tours and visits within Norwich, including visits to key organisations such as Aviva, Norwich City Football Club and a visit to the University of Cambridge.
UEA's Pro-Vice-Chancellor International, Prof Steven McGuire, said: "This partnership, now almost a decade old, demonstrates UEA's commitment to international educational exchange. HKMU is a wonderful partner and we look forward to deepening this collaboration."
