Studying in HKU SPACE CC helps me broaden my horizon. It is not only a stepping stone to get into university, but also equips me to be an all-rounded student. Don’t be afraid of making mistakes and asking questions. These learning processes can make us grow and gain more knowledge. Failure in public examination does not mean that you are a loser. On the contrary, studying in HKU SPACE CC offers you another opportunity to achieve your goals. “No one can decide your way, only you can.”

Studying Healthcare and Health Plan Administration at HKU SPACE CC has exposed me to a broader spectrum of healthcare issues, ranging from health planning to the structure of the medical system in Hong Kong and other countries. As the number of the aging population has rocketed, the healthcare demand for elderly service and organizations is increasing. This Programme enriches my health sciences knowledge, while helping me understand the factors behind the demand and supply for elderly services. All these help students think more thoroughly about their interests and future decisions. During our internship, students were assigned to different community centres or clinics, where they experienced, or observed first-hand, the routine tasks and duties of a community nurse or counsellor. This was a brand-new experience for most students. I really appreciate the college for giving me a second chance to achieve my goal to study in the university.

在中學時期,我對新媒體相關東西已經有非常濃厚的興趣,但對升學出路卻沒有概念。在公開試後我選擇了入讀HKU SPACE Community College的「新媒體與傳播」高級文憑課程,這個課程令我了解到現今媒體行業的運作,使我對將來發展方向有了大概目標,並提供了一個平台讓我的興趣及創意得到拓展。
這個課程所教授的知識並沒有偏重於一個範疇,課程教授了在新媒體行業中不同範疇的入門技術和知識,由數位行銷行業的市場定位和項目規劃,到影片拍攝及後期製作的影片剪接、圖像設計、聲音設計等等,此課程都提供了機會給學生嘗試,使學生在課程中可以不斷探索將來就業或升學方向。
此外這個課程啟發了我踏入製作動態圖形(motion graphics)的領域,我在課堂以及功課上找到了製作動態圖形作品的樂趣,課程激發了我在課堂以外也自發鑽研技巧,希望得到進步。
總括而言,「新媒體與傳播」高級文憑課程為學生提供了豐富的資源和學習機會,能使他們在尋找發展方向的途中也能享受到學習的樂趣!

2019-20 Higher Diploma in Translation and Interpretation Year 1 student
It has been an amazing journey studying in HKU SPACE CC. The art of translation is far beyond mastering the usage of two languages; it is also essential to interchange skillfully between the two different language systems. The programme has armed me with not only hard knowledge, but also effective communication skills, which will be useful throughout my life. Apart from this, the lecturers have also offered a lot of help, including practical support for my studies and emotional support regarding my future career. My experience of the HD TRA programme this year has reinforced my determination to study further in the field of translation. Last but not least, this journey in HKU SPACE CC is what I will proudly share.

Higher Diploma in Information Technology (Computing Theme, 2016-2018)
After studying in HKU SPACE CC for two years, I found that although my DSE result was not good enough to apply for university, I was definitely not a failure. I failed my HKDSE Chinese subject so I continued my study in HKU SPACE CC, where I learnt much more knowledge and practical skills than my friends who were studying in university. When they were learning mathematics which were not required in daily life or workplace, and were attending many courses that are unrelated from their majors, I had already built a solid foundation in the knowledge of coding, database, system, networking and security. When I turned on my laptop, I felt like I had become a professional because since I could really apply what I learnt in the lectures. It gave me a sense that I was really learning something useful. If I passed the DSE and studied in university, I might still be studying theories and mathematics and could do nothing in front of a computer. Without practical skills, I would be absolutely worried about my career. Studying in HKU SPACE CC was really a turning point in my life.
Apart from this, most universities tend to require students to study engineering for one year before choosing the majors, which means we have to spend one year learning something unrelated to our majors, even if we are not good at or interest at them. If we cannot achieve high marks in those courses, we will not be able to choose the desired majors in year 2. Instead, HKU SPACE CC offers higher diploma programmes which we can directly choose our preferred subjects. For example, I plan to work in the IT field and so I applied for the Higher Diploma in Information Technology programme. What I learnt were all related to IT. After finishing the programme, students can continue studies at university if they achieve a good GPA. In another words, students do not have to study that “risky” year 1 in university. Instead, they can choose to study for 2 years in HKU SPACE CC. You can even apply for admission to senior years at a university after completing a higher diploma programme. As competition in higher diploma programmes tends to be lower, it may be easier to achieve good GPA. Last but not least, all lecturers I met were experienced and were willing to help and share with us their precious experience, which were definitely helpful to our career planning. Do not hesitate to talk with the teachers and enjoy the advantage of studying in HKU SPACE CC!
