Lee Ming Tsun 2014-2015 Higher Diploma in Information Technology (Web and Multimedia Development Stream)

“What didn't kill you makes you stronger.” I totally agree with this now. I failed totally in HKDSE, but it did not kill me. “Failure teaches success” It became the motivation of my study because I did not want to be a loser anymore. I determined to study hard to show that I am not only that. Finally, I chose to study in HKU SPACE Community College. I chose the Web and Multimedia Development Stream. It contains some programming and web authoring. This is my favourite domain and I am good at the subjects. I chose this also because the elective subject of ICT in secondary school is programming. I have been interested in programming since I was small. Another reason is that I may get better result in this stream. It may help me get into university easier. Time flies like an arrow… Of course not! This year is the most fulfilling time in my life regarding interpersonal and academic aspects. In interpersonal aspect, I have joined some societies. The camps are unforgettable, but more important is that I had met lots of friends there. I had a wonderful time with them. In academic aspect, I have learnt a lot from lecturers, classmates and the course. Lecturers are not only teaching us knowledge on the books. They also taught us the logic that how to think with professionalism. Moreover, they told us what is happening and the tendency of IT industry. In addition, the projects taught us a lot. We acquired knowledge from the projects. For example, I learnt how to write the algorithm or how to program the website, etc. On the other hand, we learnt how to cooperate with our classmates. We had to divide the work and everyone had to finish their parts on time. A project could not be done individually. We helped and learnt from one another to finish every project. Those are unforgettable and precious memories. Eventually, I got into University. I can finally achieve my goal to further my study. If you chose HKU Space Community College, congratulations! This is your best choice! View Details

Working hard is the most important key studying in HKU SPACE CC. In here, everyone wants to get into the university, I studied very hard, read reference books, asked teachers for help and luckily, I have a lot of friends who are willing to teach me to get good results in exams.

Bob Chan Higher Diploma in Information Technology (2008-2010)

Back to 10 years ago, I was a student of HD in IT. Despite my major was networking, I had opportunities to learn about Information Security and entered the industry after my bachelor studies. Now I am back to HKU SPACE as a lecturer of the new programme HD in Information Security. If one is asking me why I come back to teach, there are two reasons behind: First, when compared with IT, Information security is a relatively new domain for people, corporates, institutions and even the society. Due to the fast advancement of technologies and increasing utilization in various industries, more security breakout and concern can be seen (and foreseen). However, shortage of manpower is a major problem throughout the industry, especially in entry level. So I would like to train more people for the whole industry, like what I have gone through in these years. Another reason is to convey (correct) awareness of information security to teenagers and even the general public, for the misconceptions I have seen nowadays. From TV episodes, movies or the Internet we can see hackers who possess great abilities to destroy or save the world, and teenagers are being attracted and want to become such a person. But the truth is, this industry is a lot more than hackers and technical skills. In this programme you will learn professional knowledge and skills necessary to survive in this industry, from compliance, audit, management, to technical skills, forensics and hacking (which is pursued by many). Also, you will hear sharing of stories and experience from our adventures in information security field. My colleagues and I are here to help you to build interests and abilities, as well as provide guidance for your future studies or careers. Looking forward to seeing you around. View Details

Chow Ching Kiu, Kristie 2019-20 Associate of Science (Biological Science) (Year 2)

It was wonderful to be a student at HKU SPACE CC. The Science Division in HKU SPACE CC offered us a precious chance to get first-hand experience at HKU. We were able to learn, study and do experiments in a large-scale university. Not only did this provide me with the exposure to one of the best universities, but also helped me to familiarize myself with the university style of education for the future. During my two years at CC, I felt the warmest encouragement from my teachers. They provided all we needed to get into a university, from guidance and reference letters to emotional support. I am very grateful and highly recommend my fellow peers who love science to choose CC. If I were given another opportunity to choose again, my choice of HKU SPACE CC would undoubtedly remain unchanged. View Details

Gayathry Manoharan 2019-2021 Associate of Engineering

I still vividly remember my first day at HKU SPACE CC. I felt a huge relief walking into the campus, knowing that I was given an opportunity to turn my life around. The associate degree I took in CC was Engineering, and it had fundamental courses that would prepare me well for other courses in university. I also received abundant help from the teachers, particularly from Sir Jeff, who was the program coordinator for Engineering. If there is any advice I can give, then it would be to ensure you are on top of your work. Last but not least, I hope you all can get into your desired university. Good luck, and I wish you all the very best! View Details
