student place

• The initiative was also a response to reduced faculty budget and the number of student places over the past five years , which had lead to a situation where a number of departments in the faculty had only 3 to 4 teachers . with a heavy administrative workload on top of their teaching and research commitments , this situation was untenable in the long run
  这项行动同时是为了因应过去五年学院备受削资及学额减少，个别部门的教学人员数目因而只得三至四位的情况；长远来说，教学人员难以在教学及研究工作之上，再承担沈重的行政工作。
