SCAD Challenge Hong Kong Masthead

 

Hong Kong

Within the venerable walls of the historic former North Kowloon Magistracy building, SCAD brings prestigious U.S. art and design education and professional career preparation to Hong Kong, a sophisticated international city on the southeastern coast of China. SCAD has renovated and adapted the majestic facility to include a library, art gallery, digital labs, studios, classrooms and lecture halls.

Student Life

Eight programs of study are offered through bachelor’s and master’s degrees. Exhibitions, cultural arts programming and other activities enliven the student experience and build strong community ties. Student housing is available. In addition to Cantonese, English is an official language of Hong Kong. All SCAD Hong Kong classes are taught in English.
