CUHK’s Co-operative Education Programme (Co-op@CUHK) prides itself in being the first of its kind in Hong Kong, open to CUHK students of year two or above across all disciplines who exhibit good academic standing, a breadth of extra-curricular activities and a positive, can-do attitude.
Co-op@CUHK is an academically accredited programme that combines classroom learning with productive and paid work experience in a field related to students’ academic or career goals.
Through around six to eight months of valuable paid work experience alongside CUHK’s bespoke courses, Co-op gives students the opportunity to build up their technical soft skills, industry insights and professional networks while earning their degree.

Students are encouraged to step out of their comfort zones and traverse the market landscape, exploring careers which they are interested in that complement, and are not limited to, their field of study. The Programme allies with a diverse spectrum of industry partners, including reputed global companies with Hong Kong operations, fresh startups, non-profit organisations and statutory bodies.

The immersive and structured programme provides an enriching experience for students, allows employers to develop their future pipeline of talent, and strengthens the University’s curricula and partnership with industry and the private sector.
