The VTC established The Technological and Higher Education Institute of Hong Kong (THEi) (香港高等教育科技學院) to provide career-oriented bachelor degree programmes for Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education Examination (HKDSE) graduates starting from 2012[1].

THEi offers self-financed degree programmes with a strong vocational orientation. It comprises the Faculty of Design and Environment, the Faculty of Management and Hospitality, the Faculty of Science and Technology, and a School of General Education and Languages. The degree programmes are currently delivered at the Tsing Yi Campus and the Kowloon Tong Campus of THEi, while some classes are conducted at IVE campuses and other centres to make use of their specialised teaching facilities. A purpose-built main campus for THEi in Chai Wan will be ready in academic year 2017/18.

The programmes offered by THEi emphasise the integration of theoretical knowledge with practical skills through real-life projects and industrial attachments, and aim to train graduates to be professionally competent, independent, and socially responsible. The general education curriculum is designed to ensure that graduates are all-rounded and can apply their knowledge and skills in context.[2]
