                          Many universities have responded to the
                          changing demands on talents; they introduced
                          interdisciplinary curriculums. For example, the
                          Faculty of Science in the University of Hong Kong
                          (HKU) has launched a Bachelor of Arts and Sciences
                          (Applied AI) in the 2019/20 school year. The
                          programme aims to train students in designing and
                          constructing AI systems in different fields. It also
                          discusses moral and ethical considerations when
    074                   applying AI.

                          There are many new interdisciplinary programmes
                          at  HKU,  including  the  Bachelor  of  Arts  (Financial

                          requirements to nurture financial and technical
                          experts; Bachelor of Arts and Sciences (Design + )
                          in the School of Architecture integrates architecture,
                          history, and aesthetics to train students in solving
                          problems using innovative design concepts.
