With the completion of large-scale facilities such as GO PARK Sai Sha and the Kai Tak Sports Park, and with growing resources dedicated to promoting sports at the community and school levels, the pace of hosting major sporting events and expanding sports economy has accelerated. To cultivate talents to meet the needs of society, CUSCS offers the one-year full-time Diploma Programme in Sports Performance and Innovation (DSI).<\/p>\n<p> This programme is designed to enhance students\u2019 professional knowledge in sports science, sports injuries management, and fitness appraisals, while exploring the applications of smart technology and the development trends of newly emerged sports. Through innovative curriculum design, students will acquire both theoretical foundations and practical skills, enabling them to pursue further studies or enter the workforce.<\/p>\n<p>The DSI Programme also includes a Homeform Teacher System. The caring homeform teacher offers guidance and support, ensuring that students experience a smooth transition to college education.<\/div><\/p>\n<div class=\"rgs_col span_2.5_of_12\"><br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.scs.cuhk.edu.hk\/cuscs\/commfiles\/ftdip_leaflet.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Download Programme Leaflet<\/a><br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.scs.cuhk.edu.hk\/cuscs\/commfiles\/ftdip_leaflet.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Diploma Programme Leaflet\" src=\"https:\/\/www.scs.cuhk.edu.hk\/ftdip\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/ftdip_brochure2026.jpg\" \/><\/a><br \/><\/div>\n<p><div class=\"rgs_col span_2.5_of_12\"><br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=HDUCXcA1x7U\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">DSI Programme Video<\/a><br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=HDUCXcA1x7U\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"DSI Programme Video\" src=\"https:\/\/www.scs.cuhk.edu.hk\/ftdip\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/video_dsi2026.jpg\" \/><\/a><br \/><\/div><br \/><\/div><\/p>\n<div class=\"rgs_section rgs_group rgs-section\">\n<div class=\"rgs_col span_9_of_12\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.scs.cuhk.edu.hk\/ftdip\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/why-dsi_en.jpg\" \/><br \/>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.scs.cuhk.edu.hk\/ftdip\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/dsi_qf_cef.gif\" \/><\/p>\n\n<strong style=\"color: #000000;\">CEF Course Code and Course Name<\/strong>\n<p style=\"color: #000000;\">The following modules have been included in the list of reimbursable courses under the Continuing Education Fund:\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<table border=\"1\">\n  <tbody>\n    <tr>\n      <td style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>CEF Course Code<\/strong><\/td>\n      <td style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>CEF Course Name<\/strong><\/td>\n    <\/tr>\n    <tr>\n      <td style=\"color: #000000;\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\">43Z169504<\/td>\n      <td style=\"color: #000000;\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\">Information Technology Applications <br>\n      (Module from Diploma in Sports Performance and Innovation)<\/td>\n    <\/tr>\n    <tr>\n      <td style=\"color: #000000;\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\">43Z169512<\/td>\n      <td style=\"color: #000000;\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\">Interpersonal Communication Skills <br>\n      (Module from Diploma in Sports Performance and Innovation)<\/td>\n    <\/tr>\n    <tr>\n      <td style=\"color: #000000;\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\">43Z169520<\/td>\n      <td style=\"color: #000000;\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\">Career and Personal Planning <br>\n      (Module from Diploma in Sports Performance and Innovation)<\/td>\n    <\/tr>\n  <\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<br>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #3a6328; font-weight: bold;\"><br>Admission Requirements<\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education (HKDSE) Examination with at least 6 points in the best 5 subjects plus Level 1 or above in English Language and Chinese Language; or<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Equivalent qualifications<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #3a6328; font-weight: bold;\"><br>\nCurriculum<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The DSI Programme comprises 11 courses with a total of 33 units.
