中大藝術一甲子 60th Anniversary of the Department of Fine Arts

中大藝術系源於新亞書院1957年開辦的二年制藝術專修科,初設國畫、西畫兩組。注重藝術教育的錢穆院長特意邀請留學法國的著名油畫家陳士文先生任首位科主任。當時的老師有留學日本、繪畫、書法、篆刻皆精的丁衍庸先生、文物收藏及鑒賞家王季遷先生、書法家曾克耑先生等;亦不時邀請藝術名家來校講學,如抽象派大師趙無極先生、和國畫大師溥儒(心畬)先生。

1959年專修科改為四年制本科課程。1963年新亞書院加入中大,正式成立中大藝術系,為香港首個提供視覺藝術教育的大專學系。

除了本科課程,藝術系亦開辦哲學碩士(1981) 、哲學博士(1992)、藝術碩士(藝術創作)(1993)、藝術文學碩士(2009)等課程,使藝術系成為香港培育藝術人才的重鎮。

The Department of Fine Arts was founded in 1957. At the beginning it was a two-year fine arts specialized training programme launched at New Asia College, which consisted of two divisions, namely Chinese Painting and Western Painting. Invited by Dr. Ch’ien Mu, Mr. Chen Shih-wen, the oil painting master who had studied Western art in France, became the first director of the programme. Teachers in the early days included Mr. Ding Yanyong, master of painting, Chinese Calligraphy, and seal carving and had studied Western art in Japan; Mr. Wang Chi-Ch’ien, art collector and connoisseur; and Mr. Zeng Keduan, Chinese calligrapher, etc.; renowned artists like Mr. Zao Wou-Ki, master of postwar abstraction, and Mr. Pu Ru (Xinyu), eminent Chinese painter, were invited to give lectures.

In 1959 it was developed into a four-year undergraduate programme. When The Chinese University of Hong Kong was established in 1963, New Asia College was one of the University’s constituent colleges. The Department of Fine Arts became the first tertiary institute to offer courses of visual arts in Hong Kong.

Since then, the Department has developed a balanced and comprehensive undergraduate, and established postgraduate programmes including MPhil (1981), PhD (1992), MFA (1993) and MA (2009) programmes. All these have made the Department a strategic base for training art professionals in Hong Kong.

大學站 University Station

1956年,崇基學院搬到馬料水現址建校辦學,九廣鐵路特別為崇基學院新設馬料水車站。1967年1月1日,馬料水車站改稱為大學站,至今服務中大人及市民半個世紀。

值得一提是,在2000年代,港鐵發展西港島綫,其中一站連接香港大學。由於香港大學是香港第一所大學,遂引起兩大學生於網上爭論「大學」站一名誰屬,最終東鐵綫「大學」站名維持不變。

In 1956, Chung Chi College moved to its permanent site in Ma Liu Shui. A train station, called Ma Liu Shui Station, was built to serve the College. From 1 January 1967 Ma Liu Shui Station was renamed ‘University Station’, and so this year the Station is turning 50.

It is worth mentioning that in 2000s the MTR Corporation proposed the West Island Line and one of the stations was planned to serve the University of Hong Kong (HKU). Since HKU is the first university of Hong Kong, student groups of CUHK and HKU had debated online claiming the naming rights of ‘University Station’. Eventually the name was reserved to CUHK.

日本研究課程五十年 50 Years of Japanese Studies Programme

中大早於1967年成立日文組,由崇基學院負責開設選修科目。當時日本政府更派遣一位客座教授及兩位客座講師到該院任教。

1972年,日文組擴展成一獨立單位,隸屬文學院的法、德、日、意文委員會,提供副修課程。

嗣後,為回應社會對日語專才日益增長的需求,中大於1991年成立日本研究學系(日研系),開辦主修課程,提供有關日本社會、文化和語言之學術訓練。該系的最大特色為安排同學到日本著名大學留學一年,修讀相關課程,又可感受當地生活。

目前日研系提供日本研究和語言的本科、文學碩士、及哲學碩士博士銜接課程。2015-16年度中大各學系共有約3,500人次報讀日研系的課程。

有關中大日本研究課程的發展歷史可參閱:


The University has launched its Japanese programme since 1967. It was first introduced by Chung Chi College, and the service of a visiting professor and two visiting lecturers was made available through the Japanese Government.

In 1972, the University decided to offer Japanese as a minor programme and so an independent section was formed, under the French, German, Italian, and Japanese Committee of the Faculty of Arts.

To meet the growing needs of the community for Japanese-speaking professionals, the section was renamed as the Department of Japanese Studies in 1991. Since then, the Department has offered a multi-disciplinary major programme including academic training in Japanese society, culture, and language. One strength of the programme is the arrangement of a year-long academic exchange study for all major students. Through the extensive networks with top universities in Japan, students has the opportunity to study in Japan and to experience the culture.

Today the Department has developed into a comprehensive programme providing both undergraduate and postgraduate (Master of Arts & Articulated MPhil-PhD) training in Japanese studies and language. In 2015-16, about 3,500 students from every department at the University enrolled in the language and non-language courses offered by the Department.
