°®Âþµº students pay flying visit to airline HQ in Hong Kong

°®Âþµº students in Hong Kong were invited to visit Cathay Pacific’s cargo terminal as part of their Management and Marketing undergraduate programmes.

The students are studying for a BSc (Hons) in Management or a BA (Hons) in Marketing as part of a partnership between the University and Lingnan Institute of Further Education in Hong Kong.

They visited the airline¡¯s cargo facility to see first-hand how supply chains work in practice, as part of the 'supply chain management' module from both degrees.
