Higher Adult Education Degree Programme (HAEDP)

HAEDP is composed of “Night University” programs and “Correspondence” programs.

The “Night University” was officially launched in 1983. Since then, nearly 3,000 students have graduated. HAEDP once offered courses in 7 foreign languages: English, Japanese, Russian, French, German, Spanish and Arabic. Presently, HAEDP offers 3-year courses in English, Japanese, Spanish and Arabic, leading to an Associate Degree or Bachelor’s Degree, part-time (3-year AA programs and 3-year BA programs) and full-time (2-year AA programs and 4-year BA programs).

Since the official launching of the “Correspondence” (CP) degree program in 1987, more than 700 AEC students have graduated with AA degrees, majoring in English, Japanese, German and Arabic. AEC’s CP students learn not by correspondence in its real sense, but instead study on campus 8-10 hours per week, afternoons, weekdays and weekends. It now offers 3-year courses in English, leading to an AA degree, both for first-degree students and second-degree students. The courses CP offers include: General English, Conversation, Oral Interpretation, Written Translation, Listening, Watch-Listen-Talk (discussions on movies watched), Chinese, Political Sciences, and Basic Computer Sciences.

Applicants take the National Entrance Examinations, and enrollment is on the basis of competitive selection. However, only those applicants can take the English Proficiency Test given by HAEDP who have already earned their tertiary degree and study for a second tertiary degree. HAEDP confers relevant degrees to students upon their fulfillment of degree requirements.
