This recognition of my endeavours both inside and outside the classroom significantly boosted my confidence. As an aspiring entrepreneur, I was provided through this Scholarship with essential funding for my project – which is to develop a sustainable clothing brand that collaborates with Southeast Asian artisans and communities. Rare opportunities like this have enabled me to deepen my connections with diverse groups and grow as a leader and an individual. I am immensely grateful for the donor’s generous support. 獲得中銀香港獎學金，是我在浸大就讀最後一年的一大幸事。它肯定了我在 學業及課外活動上的努力，大大加強了我的自信。作為一個有志創業的學生， 獎學金為我的項目提供了重要的資金。我現時與東南亞工藝師及族群協作， 推出可持續發展服飾品牌，此等機會讓我能夠加深與不同群體的聯繫，提升 領導能力並達致個人成長。捐贈人的慷慨支持，實在讓我感激不已。 Dr. Albert Chau 周偉立博士 Vice-President (Teaching and Learning), HKBU 香港浸會大學副校長（教與學） As part of the “One University, Two Campuses” strategy, HKBU has introduced the Extended Study Programme (ESP) in the Greater Bay Area (GBA). HKBU and UIC students may study for one semester or one academic year and join various learning activities at the other campus. In 2023-2024, 95 students joined the ESP. In addition, all international students have the opportunity to join a three-day immersive tour to the GBA. They will stay in the UIC campus, attend cultural workshops and a High Table Dinner, and visit heritage sites and companies in the GBA. In 2023-2024, the tour has attracted 380 students from 52 countries/regions. The ESP and immersive tour are made possible with the generous backing of the University’s supporters. Participants have provided very positive feedback. The experience has deepened their understanding of the Mainland’s history, culture and latest development; while also helping them to build networks that could open doors for them in their future careers. 配合「一校兩園」策略，浸大在大灣區推出「延伸學習計劃」。浸大和北京師範大 學—香港浸會大學聯合國際學院（UIC）的學生可於另一校園修讀一個學期或一學 年，以及參與多項體驗學習活動。在2023-2024年度，共有95名學生參與延伸學習 計劃。 此外，所有國際學生都有機會參與為期三天的沉浸式大灣區考察團。他們入住 UIC校園，參加文化工作坊和高桌晚宴，並參觀大灣區的歷史名勝和企業。 2023-2024年度，考察團吸引了來自52個國家／地區的380名學生參與。 延伸學習計劃和沉浸式考察團得以成功舉辦，有賴大學支持者的慷慨贊助。參與者 均給予非常正面的評價，認為是次體驗加深了他們對內地歷史、文化和最新發展的 了解，同時亦有助他們建立人脈網絡，為未來事業發展創造更多機遇。
