My two-year study at HKU SPACE CC was such a wonderful journey for me as it gave me a second chance to achieve my university dream. I had gained knowledge from the lecturers and met a lot of lovable friends. I will never forget those days we strove for our dreams together. I am going to study Linguistics at CUHK to achieve my dream of helping children with language difficulties. Thank you, HKU SPACE CC, for making my dream come true!

Higher Diploma in Information Technology (Computing and Data Science Theme Year 2)
Owing to my personal issues, I had interruptions in my academic studies in the past years. I have several years of experience working in the IT industry, and I like new technologies a lot. So I decided to engage fully in this industry and become a software engineer. I realized that in order to make my dream come true, I need to strengthen my caliber and competency in IT technology. In addition, I must acquire the appropriate qualifications. Therefore, I decided to resume my studies in IT.
I had applied for many local IT courses and programmes in 2019. Fortunately, HKU SPACE CC gave me a chance and offered me a place to study in the Higher Diploma in Information Technology programme. I treasured this invaluable second chance very much, therefore, I took every subject in the course very seriously.
The programme was very well structured--starting with the basics and progressing to the advanced computer theories including networking, data structures, and programming--which helped me to understand and enrich my computer knowledge. The part that I liked most was the proactive and warm learning atmosphere in the classes. The college encouraged students to work in groups. Also, students were willing to help each other when they encountered difficulties instead of competing with each other like enemies. With the sincere and passionate help from the lecturers and my fellow classmates, I was able to achieve satisfactory academic results in my first year and got a valuable offer from my desired university to continue my undergraduate study.
Dear fellow schoolmates, no matter what you plan to do--to work or to continue your studies--the HDIT programme is a perfect pathway. In two years’ time, I have been transformed from a hopeless youngster into to an enlightened student. And now I am full of hope. All of this would not have been possible if HKU SPACE CC had not offered me a second chance. All my hard work paid off. Please do not lose faith in yourselves, everyone is capable of success. If you have a dream and are prepared to strive for it, it will come true!

2020 Year 2, Higher Diploma in Information Security
Information security is increasingly important nowadays. Under the current covid-19 pandemic, we go online in many aspects of our lives. Therefore the awareness for information security has risen.
In this programme, I learned to integrate different domains of information security such as audits, network security, and forensics. At the same time, I also learned two types of programming languages for my future studies and work. Apart from the hard knowledge, our lecturers also introduced the operations of the information security industry. For example, I learned when we should obtain an information security certification and the objective of different certifications.
If you wish to enter the information security industry in the future, this course can help you to understand it deeply. If you want to continue to study, it can also help you build a solid foundation in computing knowledge.

In the past two years, I worked part time in the archival centre of a large real estate developer and in a university library. Those are memorable experiences. I would like to take this opportunity to encourage other DSE students not to give up and to study hard.
