Since this academic year, UIC has adjusted its academic structure to meet its fast development needs. The new structure will keep aligning with international practices and standards and improve academic planning, providing better liberal arts education to its students.

Building on the existing scaffolding, the four Academic Divisions will be retitled and defined as Faculties/Schools, namely the Faculty of Business and Management, the School of Culture and Creativity, the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, and the Faculty of Science and Technology.

Departments covering different disciplines in the Faculty/School will be set up to oversee programme operation and academic planning. The existing programmes will stay intact and will be housed under respective departments.

Another four teaching units, namely the English Language Centre, the Whole Person Education Office, the Chinese Language and Culture Centre, and the General Education Office, will be grouped and renamed to form a new School of General Education.
