There are four subjects in the Department of Humanities & Liberal Studies, viz. Economics, Geography, Chinese History and Liberal Studies. The aim of these subjects is to develop students’ social and humanistic perspective so to help them make judgments on issues in local community, the nation and the world.
Economics
Economics is a study of the choices that individuals and societies make about how to allocate their scarce resources among competing uses. It is a social science, applying scientific methods of analysis to problems of human interaction.
Major topics covered in the syllabus of HKDSE include:
To broaden students’ horizons, useful seminars and competition activities on economics and financial related topics will be arranged for different grades.
To guide students in the “Extension of trade theory”, to understand the key concepts and theories of absolute advantage, comparative advantage, and gains from trade by using the production possibilities frontier (PPF). In the part of “Economic Growth and Development”, it is important for students to understand that economic growth and development are two related, but different concepts.
