PolyU has a degree in bra studies?

News: Chinese try to build better bra; Hong Kong university offers degree
Mentioned in: Canadian Press (November 14, 2005)

Quite a number of US and Canada news media mention that there is now a degree in bra studies at Hong Kong’s Polytechnic University. Since there is only one university in Hong Kong that has “polytechnic” in its name, I think they mean the Hong Kong Polytechnic University. I try to check the PolyU’s website to verify the news. However, I cannot find any degree programme that has title relevant to bra studies. The closer one is “Bra Pattern Grading & Fitting”, which is a short course offered by Institute of Textiles and Clothing, the Hong Kong Polytechnic University.

Update (Feburary 16, 2006)

PolyU posts the information on this new Bachelor Degree Programme:
Bachelor of Arts (Hons) in Intimate Apparel
