The Department of Applied Social Sciences (APSS) hosted a reception to welcome our student-athletes in late August 2024. During the reception, APSS outlined the resources and services available to student-athletes, ensuring they have the necessary guidance to thrive in both their academic and competitive athletic endeavours.
APSS is committed to supporting the development of our talented student-athletes and facilitating their dual-track growth in sports and academics. Understanding the demanding training schedules and participation in local and international competitions, APSS provides measures such as alternative assessments to replace group projects and extension of assignment deadlines to help student-athletes navigate the challenges of balancing their academic work and athletic competitions.
This gathering marks the start of an exciting new chapter for the incoming student-athletes, and the Department looks forward to witnessing their growth and accomplishments in the years to come. A special APSS souvenir was presented by Prof. Eric CHUI, Chair Professor and Head of APSS, at the sports centre to the attending student-athletes as a congratulatory gesture for their future success.
