This course aims to provide students with experiential learning opportunities to apply their knowledge and skills to tackle complex real-life problems in the community. Through first-hand practical experience and the project-based learning, students are guided to develop self-awareness of real-life issues, explore their career interests, workplace challenges, and reflect upon their life-career planning.

The objectives of this course are fourfold:

(1) to help students develop a good understanding of the real world through first-hand practical experience;

(2) to enable students to integrate knowledge acquired from classroom learning with practical work experiences;

(3) to assist students to develop social awareness, critical thinking and analytical ability so that they can identify solutions to complex and authentic problems relevant to the local, regional or the global community; and

(4) to enhance students' skills in communication, teamwork, leadership, and transdisciplinary problem-solving.
