  • An Analysis of the Current Private Higher Education and the Role of University Governance in Hong Kong1
    An Analysis of the Current Private Higher Education and the Role of University Governance in Hong Kong1 Tse Wai-Man Chu Hai College of Higher Education Abstract This paper investigates the roles of various governing bodies in maintaining a viable and reputable higher education system in Hong Kong. In particular, we decipher the existing problems of Hong Kong private higher education based on its recent statistics of student intakes, the demographic, fee, curriculum and governance structures. The comparison of these data identifies the amount of the tuition charged, the provision of university life, the professional nature of the curriculum, and the transparency of the college management as the determinants for enhancing student intakes. Also, the paper explores the role the Hong Kong government should play in financing and strategically regulating the higher education sector to curb financial and reputational risks of the whole system. Keywords: University governance, private higher education, successful characteristics, Hong Kong. 1. Introduction The recent report by Sir Howard Newby (2015) provided clear recommendations for the governance role of the University Grants committee (UGC). It addressed issues on how UGC should play a role by its fiduciary responsibilities to strike a balance between accountability and autonomy of the eight publicly-funded universities in Hong Kong. It forcefully argued that UGC should not only be concerned of the financial risks of the eight universities but also the reputational risks given the limited resources the government can commit. It also suggested that code of practice could be important to underscore good university governance. Since the focus of the report was largely for the UGC and publicly-funded universities, this paper extends Newby’s idea to investigate the governance of the private higher education institutions in Hong Kong.

Francis Arthur-Holmes, Lingnan University, Hong Kong The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic more than ever threatens learning and research activities as well as university governance and institutional management. Therefore, transforming higher education during this pandemic requires changes in institutional management, learning and teaching approaches, and technologies for students and lecturers to use. Many higher education institutions (HEIs) have adopted different approaches to ensure effective learning and teaching in this period. Depending on the COVID-19 situation in a country, some HEIs have implemented either face-to-face or online learning with others deciding on both. All these three strategies have its attendant impact on learning and teaching. In most media and academic discourse, it is argued that hybrid teaching/learning is the best solution we have for HEIs during this global health crisis. But different perspectives concerning this approach have not been brought to the fore for discussion particularly in terms of technologies used, internet/network connection for students living in deprived and rural communities, tuition fees for students (whether there should be a discount or not), inability to access resource in a university library, delivery of some disciplines (such as natural and medical sciences) online, and student assessment and academic development. The argument on and solution for higher education for the “new normal” should go beyond the focus of institutional management to look at the students’ and tutors’ challenges for hybrid teaching/learning approach and the COVID-19 measures of some governments in the developing and developed countries.
