• One-year full time OR Two-year part time
• All required courses except the Chinese News Writing and Reporting classes are taught in English, whereas elective courses are taught mostly in English or Cantonese. Students who do not understand Cantonese can complete the programme through taking the English News Writing and Reporting classes and the English-language elective courses. But understanding of spoken Cantonese would be much preferred and could broaden the choices of electives. For students who want to take the Chinese News Writing and Reporting classes, understanding of spoken Cantonese is required.
