In my experience, HKU SPACE provides a great learning opportunity for students who want to pursue their career in different fields such as aviation, nursing, business management and so on.
I joined HKU SPACE back in 2016 to seek knowledge and experience in the aviation field. The two years of higher diploma course in Aviation Studies enabled me to obtain professional skills and knowledge in this sector. Some of these are aviation operation, management, case studies on future development, human factor, safety risk and assessment, etc. All of these modules were taught by high calibre professors, who had many years of experience in their respective specialism in the aviation industry.
Apart from teaching elements in the classroom, the programme team also ensured that we get more exposure and learning opportunities in the professional world of aviation. Some of these opportunities took me to Singapore Airshow 2018, Australia and Junior Airport Management course at Incheon Airport Management Training Academy. Participating in these programmes greatly increased my knowledge, skill, vision and most importantly a motivational boost for me to be a part of this industry in the future.
HKU SPACE CC has some of the best facilities such as a physical and online library, self-learning common rooms, IT equipment, etc. Which ensured that students are not restricted when it comes to learning. My friends and I used these facilities to the fullest for our course assignments, presentation preparation and occasional chit-chats.
Overall, in my opinion, the college has not only built up my understanding in aviation but also paved a way for me to meet my goal of becoming an aviation business analyst. I am currently studying further to obtain my degree in Aviation Operation and System at a reputable university. This would not have been possible had I not have a solid foundation in aviation.

Bachelor of Engineering in Industrial Engineering and Logistics Management (Senior Entry), The University of Hong Kong
Our education system is hardly a one-fits-all solution for everyone. I remember the moment when I failed in HKDSE, I started to doubt, "Am I suitable for pursuing further academic studies?"
The two-year studies, plus the overseas experience, did more than building up our solid foundations in the aviation industry. As we
studied further, we learnt to be critical and became more mature. Eventually, we were able to develop a mindset which greatly helped us plan for our own future.
Assessment of the programme ranged from flight and airline simulations to internship programmes. We were assessed comprehensively, and critically, which motivated us to keep reviewing and exploring.
Learning is no longer limited to lectures and the given materials. With the scholarships provided by CC, we could participate in overseas programmes to explore the industry with a global vision. We became more competitive and well-equipped when we graduated.

Most people do not understand about aviation industry and believe that this industry is only related to flight attendants, pilots and ground staff. In fact, there are many other specialists in this industry apart from what you imagine. If you have ever read a book called “Moments of Truth” by Jan Carlzon or have explored this industry on your own, you will know how professional this industry is.
Throughout the two-year study at HKU SPACE CC, the programme has enriched my aeronautical knowledge in every single aspect of the industry. Ranging from fundamental introduction to specific technical knowledge, a lot of areas have been covered in this programme. For example, the course syllabus of Aircraft Weight Balance and Dispatch is derived from the Jardine Aviation Services training materials, which has enhanced my knowledge in specific aviation profession. To sum up, all materials covered in this programme not only focus on theories, but also the practical aspect, which provide me with essential knowledge and skills.
On the other hand, I joined several study trips during my study at HKU SPACE CC. The most remarkable trip was the Singapore one. The Singapore Airshow is one of the most famous airshows in the world. It hosts high-level government and military delegations, as well as senior corporate executives around the world while serving as a global event for leading aerospace companies and budding players to make their mark in the international aerospace and defense market. This event was amazing, not only because of those real jets displayed but also the aerobatic flight performance. If you like aircraft, especially military one or the one who like chatting with aviation specialists from different sectors (Business, Civil or Military), here is where you must come.
This programme, I believe is an essential path to both academic achievements and successful career goals, and there is still a long way for me to go on. I truly believe that the future is in our hands. Only through strengthening my convictions can I motivate myself to strive for excellence and pursue my dream in the aviation industry.

BSocSc Asian and International Studies, City University of Hong Kong
The aviation industry became my interest after I have played a computer game about air traffic control when I was around Secondary 4. Being an air traffic controller became my dream job afterwards and getting inadequate results in the public examination did not make me give up. This programme provided a lot of opportunities for me to enrich my knowledge and experiences throughout this two fruitful years. These foundations drove me to continue my academic path at the City University of Hong Kong.
This programme had given me a chance to take part in the Singapore Airshow, one of the biggest airshow in Asia. These airshows are not generally opened to the general public, especially to students like me. However, I can attend the trade day of the Airshow as a participant from the aviation industry. Moreover, the programme had also provided me an opportunity to work in the Hong Kong Aviation Ground Services Limited, which allowed me to join and contribute to the industry.
Let your dreams take off from here and make them come true.
