The Palace Museum houses a collection of national treasures, which are not only rare and precious artworks, but also serve as vehicles for Chinese philosophy and culture. Since its establishment, the Palace Museum has taken preserving and carrying the Chinese cultural heritage forward as its core mission. In the past few decades, the Palace Museum has endeavoured to activate its collection and make the museum more connected and relevant to the world beyond the museum walls. As a bridge between the past and the present, China and the world, the Hong Kong Palace Museum is committed to the study and appreciation of Chinese art and culture. With a Hong Kong perspective and a global vision, the Museum interprets the Palace Museum’s collection and its culture and presents the essence of Chinese culture and values to a global audience, while advancing dialogue and mutual learning among world civilizations. In this PolyU 85th Anniversary Public Lecture, we are honored to have Dr Louis Ng Chi-wa, the first Director of Hong Kong Palace Museum, presents a public lecture, A New Vision for Carrying the Traditional Culture Forward. We sincerely invite you to embark on a journey exploring cultural heritage through the lecture.

MOOC
This data analytics course takes an interdisciplinary approach to demonstrate the data analytics process in the context of accounting and finance. The growing volume of both structured and unstructured data has pushed forward a more data-driven form of decision-making in accounting and finance. In order to keep up with the Big Data era advancements, accountants and finance professionals need to have a data analyst mindset to excel in their jobs. This course will illustrate different concepts of accounting and finance with the application of data analytics. It will not only help the learners to develop their skills to ask the right questions but also teach them how to master the data and use different tools like Excel and Tableau to analyze the data. In the end, the learners will be able to interpret the results and make their decisions effectively.
This course will use a simple framework that helps the learners to develop an analytical mindset. This framework (QDAR) has four major components:
1. Ask the right Q uestions to address an issue in accounting or finance contexts.
2. Understand the different data types and how to retrieve and clean D ata.
3. Conduct different data A nalyses to answer the questions
4. Communicate the R esults to the decision-makers using graphs, visualizations and reports.
The whole course will cover different aspects of the framework in conjunction with different types of analyses. There will be additional datasets for the verified learners through which they can practice what they have learned during the course.
