Chu King Man, Madge Student of the Associate of Arts in Languages and Humanities Programme

Facing the failure of HKDSE, I did not meet the entrance requirements of Associate Degree programmes. Losing the clear direction towards studying, I was undoubtedly confused. Fortunately, the Diploma in Foundation Studies (DFS) offers me a chance to pave my way to tertiary education. By taking the 1-year course, I’m given a taste of studying various subjects so as to develop my interests in a variety of academic disciplines. The programme also helps me by offering training in critical thinking so that we’re all well-equipped with the skills required to get into an AD / HD programme. In short, I enjoyed taking the course as a starting point of my study journey as it indeed provides me with a variety of learning opportunities. 查看详情

Lam Long Fung 2015-16 Assoicate of Engineering (Electronic Engineering), Year 2

I am Michael Lam and I am currently a year 2 student studying Associate of Engineering in Electronic Engineering. I chose to study Engineering as it offers mathematical and computational knowledge and it is a subject which helps to create an array of different products including smartphones and other products we use in daily life. HKU SPACE Community College (CC) is a good place to improve yourself in all areas and to learn about something you love to do and study. I understood that CC was my last chance to get into the university. I tried to change myself. I learned to pay more in what, including academic and interpersonal relationship, I was weak at. I have become more all-round than before and this is the most important thing aside from a place in university that I have gained from HKU SPACE CC. 查看详情

Lau Ka Yuet, Rachel 2014-15 Associate of Health Science (Biomedical Sciences) (Year 2)

HKU SPACE CC provides a wide variety of programmes suitable for most students with varied interests and preferences. Having chosen the Biomedical Sciences programme, I was exposed to more advanced medical knowledge, human biology and technological skills in science that I had never been taught in my secondary school. Studying the field that I like made learning enjoyable, even though there were hard times in chasing the deadlines of projects, assignments and presentations. It was initially quite challenging to adapt to dramatic changes in the learning style and the level of study at the Community College. However, with the readily available facilities and kind help from the lecturers, learning effectively is no longer mission impossible. Not only did I acquire knowledge from HKU SPACE CC, but also an indomitable character to deal with hardships in life. 查看详情

Chan Yiu Fung Higher Diploma in Information Technology (Information Security and Ethical Hacking Stream, 2014-16)

I have had the greatest time of my life studying in HKU SPACE CC. For whoever refuses to join the competition of “whoever gets the best grades in HKDSE utterly wins everything in life”, I sincerely recommend you to consider joining HKU SPACE Community College for studying what you want, have an opportunity to enter the university, and kick start your amazing talent machine if you have yet to find out what your true talent is. An extraordinary gift was given to everybody when they were born, but they can never discover it if they spend most of their time studying subjects that they have no interest in. Understanding your interest can unveil your natural talent and further help you to perform amazing tasks that you thought impossible in the past. The lecturers always say to us “Always believe that something wonderful is about to happen”. I did not believe this at first, because I was uncertain about my study in information technology which I thought would be very similar to my study in my previous school. It turns out that my knowledge of information technology was too limited. There is no limit to knowledge, in HKU SPACE CC, I can choose the information technology specialty that I want to study, which I was expected to be just like most of the community colleges out there, “programming” or “networking”. But here is an extra specialty, “information security” which is so interesting that I had to choose it. Occasionally, we hit a brick wall when we study difficult topics, but the lecturers are so unlike the typical school teachers, they are super willing to explain everything we study, their passion motivates us, led us to discipline ourselves, to study harder every day. As a consequence, we can overcome any difficulties with the skills and knowledge we learnt here, helping us to become competent students. It is true that “something wonderful is about to happen”. 查看详情

Two years ago, I finished my HKDSE examination. Although the result displeased me, I hoped I could get into university one day. Therefore, I chose this programme because I knew would have a chance to study in higher education after this. I think this programme has helped me a lot in giving me a clear vision of where I am heading. Besides, I also improved my learning skills through studying different subjects. In addition, I made a lot of friends in this programme. I am enjoying this programme very much. 查看详情

Hui Ka Yin, Aldi Offer received: BSc in Computing and Information System, HKBU

When I still was a Form 5 student, my friend who had studied in HD IT showed me information about the security stream. It was the first time to hear about the programme and I found it interesting. After the HKDSE results had been released, he even took me to the Kowloon East Campus for the HD IT application. That was the beginning of my life in HKU SPACE CC. Some rumors declare that it is so hard to get a high GPA in the security stream. I hesitated at that time as to whether I should study this subject. It was a big challenge, but I still selected it as my further study area. I have never regretted to make the decision. Lecturers always introduce the knowledge with their working experience. So we can clearly understand the key points or the ideas within the notes. This knowledge will equip us to be professionals. I feel lucky to study in HKU SPACE CC HD IT. Besides the knowledge, lecturers even share their attitudes on how to treat others. We have to consider other's views. That's why I consider the tuition fee is worth it. I am pleased to accept the offer from Bachelor of Science (Hons) in Computing and Information System of HKBU. It will be a new stage for me to study. What the lecturers in HKU SPACE CC taught me can definitely help in my future studying and working. There is no difference between the salted fish and us if we don't have a dream. Lots of candidates just strive to study at university, but some of them have never thought about what job they want to do. I have found out. Being an information security professional is my dream. It pushes me to study hard. I hope that I can share my professional knowledge and experience with others. Security issues should be paid attention. I will strive my best to work in this field. All the knowledge that I learn will be included in my knowledge database to support my future job. I wish that I can make some contribution to the industry as well as the world. 查看详情
