Shum Lai Tuen Higher Diploma in Information Technology (Networking Stream, 2012-2014)

Two years ago, when I received my HKALE examination results, I was so frustrated as they were far below my expectations. I knew I would not be admitted to any universities with such results. Since then, I kept blaming myself for the failure and felt I had lost everything. A week later, I soon realized that successive feelings of depression were meaningless. As life still goes on, I had to plan for my future. Since I was so determined to receive tertiary education, rather than re-sitting the HKDSE exam, I decided to take HKU SPACE's Higher Diploma in Information Technology programme (HDIT). At the beginning, as I used to be a biology student who had not taken any IT related subjects before, I always doubted whether I was making the right choice and was afraid that I could not catch up with the lectures. Surprisingly, what I had been worrying about was totally unnecessary as I discovered that the lecturers there explained every aspect of their subjects in detail and were willing to answer whatever you had questioned about. Since the courses were carefully arranged, I could progressively learn things in an in-depth manner. Apart from theories learnt from the lectures, students were given plenty of time to use different computer programmes and devices so they would be able to obtain abundant hands-on experience and theoretical knowledge at the same time. Even if you have any enquiry other than studying, like furthering your studies or your career path, you can also consult the lecturers for advice. Two years passed, I have received offers from both HKU and HKUST. This can best demonstrate that entering HKU SPACE's HDIT programme is not at all a regretful option. At last, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to HKU SPACE Community College for providing me an alternative way of entering the university. View Details

两年的副学士生涯转眼即逝，不要以为自己还有时间可以浪费，每个学期都必需要全力以赴，不要妄想一、两个学期的失利可以在往后的日子追回。为免噬脐莫及，永远谨记「天道酬勤」。 View Details

Lo Po Ting 2010-11 Higher Diploma in Engineering (Year 1)

Disappointed with my HKALE results, I was encouraged by my family to join the Higher Diploma programme in Engineering at HKU SPACE Community College. This programme not only well equipped me with critical and independent thinking skills, but also with the fundamentals of appropriate presentation and communication strategies. College life was flexible and the learning experience was rather different from secondary school. Company visits and field trips were organised regularly and broadened my horizons in relation to the various engineering fields. The invaluable engineering skills and techniques gained from the courses also helped me to become well-prepared for my further study and career. Thanks to the guidance and support from the lecturers, after one year of study in HKU SPACE Community College, I determined to develop my engineering expertise in the field of Electrical Engineering. Certainly, there will be a lot of challenges in our lifetime but as long as we are well equipped and prepared, we can tackle any of them. Are you ready now? View Details

Ebisutani Eri 2014-16 Graduate of Associate of Arts (Languages and Humanities) (Bilingual Studies)

I studied General English III, English for Academic and Professional Purposes I & II and English for Arts and Humanities. These are core English courses in studying the associate degree programme. I found these courses really helpful to my further studies in the Arts field. These courses have allowed me to establish a solid foundation in English, and gradually guided me to write academically. Apart from English proficiency, I gained the skill of critical thinking and data analysis, which has equipped me with the key to open the world of academic studies, so that I could understand the theories proposed by other scholars in their paper and then come up with my own ideas. I had many opportunities to execute what I learnt in class through presentations and projects. The class activities were something I enjoyed too, as I could exchange opinions with classmates. Moreover, the teachers encouraged my learning. They provided valuable advice when I came across any problem. All in all, these English courses boosted my academic writing skills in many aspects. Throughout the learning process, I gained much enjoyment and satisfaction. View Details
