With the inception of the Hong Kong government’s Competitive Research Funding Schemes for the Local Self-financing Degree Sector, Hong Kong Shue Yan University found itself in need of editorial assistance to help guide its academics toward success in the grant application process. In late 2013, the HKSYU Research Office contacted AsiaEdit to edit a large batch of Faculty Development Scheme proposals. What we delivered in early 2014 and again every year since was a service that improved not only grammar but also style and research question clarity, all within a typically rapid turnaround time.
