LEE Yan Tung Janice
2017-18 Associate of Social Sciences (Behavioural Science)
During the time I studied in HKU SPACE CC, there were always a lot of assignments and projects, so I learnt to manage my time and get along with others well. I’m lucky that I didn’t go on my "SPACE journey" alone. I made a lot of friends and we motivated each other. Lecturers here were very supportive and helpful. When I looked back, DSE was just a small part of my life. Although there were many uncertainties when I first entered HKU SPACE CC, now I have graduated and got offers from universities. I know I have made the right decision!

2014-16 文学副学士(语言及人文学科)(中国语言、文学及文化)
不要以为副学士生涯,就等於失败,但今日的失败不代表什么。这里的讲师都愿意付出心思去指导学生、关心同学,使人陪感亲切,同学遇上困难应该主动去找老师帮助。这里不但使同学早日适应大学生活,也为将来进修打好根基,给同学有两年时间重新规划前程。读书和学位不代表一切,今天的你似乎比别人多走两年路,难保你将来可以比别人走得更快更远。「问君何能尔?心远地自偏」,两年是否白过,在於自己面对逆境的心态。

Higher Diploma in Information Technology (Security Stream, 2012-2014)
Studying in HKU SPACE Community College has brought me unforgettable memories. That was not only the hard life in study but also the learning environment. The lecturers are professional that they explain the topics effectively. They are also helpful and kind that they are willing to answer our questions patiently and providing us with a pleasant environment on study. I have met a lot of guys having the same goal as mine. We studied, learned and had discussions about what we got from the lectures. I was not alone whenever striving for my future in college because the teachers and my friends were always at my back to give me a great support. The college also provided me with lots of valuable information and resources on the related career path and development which guided me to the right planning for future. The knowledge and the skills I learnt from the college are really practical and useful today. The lessons in college were totally different from those in secondary school. The former ones were more interesting and more active. We could work on lab exercises more often. Therefore, my knowledge on computing has been enhanced with such plenty of practices. And these skills help me a lot when I was interviewed by the university. The experience in the college secured me with a ticket entering into university and equipped me well for the future. I am grateful for all that I have gained from the High Diploma in Information Technology Programme from HKU SPACE and now I have been successfully admitted to the Information Engineering at Chinese University of Hong Kong for further study.

Tang Hoi Yiu
2016-17 Associate of Engineering, Year 2
In semester one, I felt puzzled and frustrated because I was not familiar with the new subjects and the new environment at HKU SPACE Community College. Thus, my exam result in semester one was far away from what I expected. Luckily, I met a lot of friends and lecturers here. They motivated me to work hard and help me to get across the difficulties.
I got an excellent result in the following two semesters under this positive learning atmosphere. Meanwhile, I received two interviews from CUHK and HKUST, followed by two conditional offers two weeks after the interview. I was excited when I received both offers from CUHK and HKUST, and I can’t wait to start my university life.
Failure is the key to success. Associate degree may be a good choice for you to get back into university and I wish all of you have a wonderful life in HKU SPACE CC. Keep your eyes on the goal and just keep taking the next step towards completing it.

2020 Year 2, Higher Diploma in Information Security
When I was in Form 5, I have applied Computer Forensic Technology, one of the Applied Learning Courses offered by HKU SPACE. At that time, I have already built up my interest in Information Security and determined to enter this career field in future. Besides, with the advancement of technology, I believe that Information Security specialists stand as a very important role, while it is a relatively new domain in the IT industry. Foreseeing the potential and the importance of Information Security, I am determined to study this programme.
Information Security is not just about technology, management skills are essential as well. This programme provides common IT courses such as programming and networking. Apart from that, you will learn specialized technical skills through hacking and computer forensics, while learning management skills through auditing and Information Security management. After studying this programme, I have realized Information Security is more than an IT subject because it relates to other subjects and areas.
Even though I could not achieve the local universities entrance requirements after my public exams, HKU SPACE Community College has given me the second chance. The learning environment is comfortable, students are motivated and eager to learn. My sincere thanks go to the lecturers, they are professional, patient, and willing to help and support us. The best part of this programme is being taught by lecturers who are working in this industry. I always feel excited when they share their stories and work experiences.
More talents are needed in this industry. If you are interested in information security, do not hesitate to apply for this programme. You will gain more than you think and have a taste of the adventures in the world of Information Security. I look forward to seeing you and hope you enjoy the journey.
