History
Founded in 1985 as Caritas Francis Hsu College, the Caritas Institute of Higher Education (CIHE) is committed to the mission of nurturing students who are not only academically and professionally well-educated but who can also contribute to the social and moral well-being of the community. Three-year post-secondary courses and professional diploma programmes were initially offered.
Education
CIHE continues to respond to societal and student needs by progressively enriching the undergraduate and professional programmes it provides. The first postgraduate programme was launched in 2021 to enhance students' articulation and career pathways. Together with its adjoining sister college, Caritas Bianchi College of Careers (CBCC), the Institute establishes multiple, flexible articulation pathways from diploma to postgraduate programmes covering over 35 disciplines. CIHE, with the support of CBCC, aims to provide quality education opportunities to help students with different needs and from different backgrounds realise their potential.
