We are thrilled to announce that the Academy has rolled out the PAIR Advanced Education Programme, which aims to provide students with up-to-date and broad knowledge of many of the biggest societal challenges facing the world today, and the latest developments and advances in various disciplines that can help provide solutions to these real-world problems. It is designed to be suitable for learners from diverse backgrounds and sectors and does not require any prior specialised knowledge.
This Programme, offered in dual mode and taught by members of PAIR constituent research units, dives deep into the landscape of a select number of pressing issues, the existing technological efforts and challenges in addressing them, and the way forward. It addresses three priority themes which PAIR has identified as significant for conducting research: advanced technologies and manufacturing, good health and well-being, and smart and sustainable cities.
Commencing in Fall 2025, the first course focusing on “Healthy Life and Smart Living” (PAIR 6001) covers six disciplines related to the theme, including food nutrition, sports, smart ageing, mental health, sharp vision and Chinese medicine. The next course on “Smart and Sustainable Cities” is scheduled for Spring 2026.
Don’t miss the chance to learn from our distinguished scholars and practitioners! Please stay tuned to our course details and enrolment information!
