Abstract	Recent global university rankings show that many Hong Kong universities are among the top 100 in the world. However, they are constantly under fire for the persistent outdated pedagogies in higher education. Because economic education is so highly regarded in Hong Kong as an international business hub, introductory economics has been taken as the focal subject in this case study. This article endeavors to distinguish five ubiquitous pedagogic challenges confronted by educators and students within traditional classroom contexts. Avenues for improvement are correspondingly proposed in order to boost the global competitiveness of local university education. Amongst other confounding factors, the pursuit of higher global university rankings, funding parsimony and vocationalization of tertiary education have caused our particular concern. (As Provided).
