Hong Kong Gifted
Apprentice Programme (HKGAP)
HKGAP is a two years and unique mentorship programme of The HKAGE, which provides students with an individualised and very privileged learning opportunity. One of the unique features of the HKGAP is the engagement of an apprentice and a master on a student self-initiated and specialised project. Apprentice is required to communicate with their Master on a regular basis and report on the progress of their project. Each apprentice must complete the selected self-initatied and specialised project before the end of the HKGAP and present the project results in different formats such as papers, lectures, workshops, etc.
​
Upon completion of the programme, participants should be able to:
-
Under the guidance of Masters, enhance academic knowledge and sublimate research projects;
-
Build a peer and professional network with Masters and other participants;
-
Become more committed and capable of creating a better world and society through problem solving, research, action and innovation;
-
Explore talents, develop skills and qualities, and broaden horizons.
