Programme Description

This Japan study field trip program is designed to provide experiential learning for undergraduate students to enhance their understanding of business strategy, creativity and innovation, management philosophy, succession planning, SDGs and the sustainability of Japanese corporations. Acknowledged for their competitiveness in these areas, we aim to enrich the participants’ knowledge through visits to reputable Japanese corporations and interactions with senior Japanese executives.

This study field trip program aims to help participants develop a broad and competitive knowledge base in business management with a cross-cultural perspective, offering opportunities to apply these learnings in real-life business scenarios. By combining academic knowledge gained during intensive lectures with the practical industry insights from firm visits, participants can integrate and apply the materials learned throughout the programme effectively.

This program comprises two major components: a one-week lecture in Hong Kong and a one-week study field trip in Japan. The study field trip will encompass various themes, including customized topics like SDGs and sustainability, creativity and the service industry, succession planning, as well as core topics like cross-cultural management, product development and innovation, Japanese business management philosophy, Japanese craftsmanship spirit, and quality control.

At the conclusion of the field trip, students must deliver a final group presentation on an assigned topic, integrating their learnings from the trip into practical business scenarios. By exploring today’s competitive cross-boundary business environment and how culture influences business strategies, participants can better prepare for their future academic studies and career development.
