The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) Business School is proud to announce the Faculty Teaching Excellence Award (FTEA) 2021-22, a recognition of the exceptional teaching performance and accomplishments of faculty members.

The award is testament to the School’s commitment to inspiring and nurturing the future generation of business leaders. Each year, the School’s students and academic staff nominate outstanding teachers or colleagues of their choice to a selection panel.

The awardees for the 2021-22 academic year are:

General Faculty Members

Early Career Faculty Members

This year’s awardees feel honoured to receive this award and would like to express their gratitude to those who have supported them along the way.

Student learning is the major goal of my teaching. I see that an instructor’s role is to facilitate student learning and helping them to formulate and achieve their own personal goals.  My teaching at different levels, including undergraduate, taught master, research master and PhD, is definitely a rewarding and enjoyable journey!
—— Professor Dora Lau


I would like to express my greatest gratitude to CUHK Business School and School of Hotel and Tourism Management for their continuous support and guidance. My special thanks to my colleagues and all the great teachers around me for their teaching advice and encouragement. I would also like to extend my thankfulness to all my students for inspiring me to be a better teacher.
—— Dr Ervi Liusman


I am humbled and honoured to receive this teaching award. It is a privilege to have the opportunity to share my passion for teaching and to help shape the minds of our future leaders. I am grateful to my colleagues and students who have supported and inspired me throughout my tenure in CUHK. This award is a testament of the rewarding relationships I have built with them during my time in Hong Kong, and it is a memory that I will treasure for the rest of my life.
