Current Research Projects
Dr. Peter Cunich is currently director of the University of Hong Kong Centenary History Project. This project has been funded by grants of $1.25 million (2007) and $500,000 (2016) from the Vice-Chancellor's Office and aims at producing the first comprehensive and critical history of HKU, ranging from the University's inception in the early twentieth century until its centenary in 2011. The project has involved the collation of widely scattered documentary sources from Hong Kong, Britain and the USA, interviews of former staff and students, and a close involvement in the establishment and development of the University Archives since 2006. The first volume of the centenary history, covering the period 1911-1945, was published by HKU Press in 2012.
Dr. Cunich's research interests include early-modern English history, particularly in state finance and church history; British missionary history; and the history of HKU.
