Offer accepted: HKUST Bachelor of Engineering in Computer Science
After two years of study in Higher Diploma in Information Technology programme, I am really happy that I have finally received conditional offers from local universities. Eventually, I have chosen the offer of BEng in Computer Science from HKUST. The life in HKU SPACE CC is unforgettable. Below comes my experience of study in HD IT that I would like to share with you. First of all, be concentrated in the lectures. You should always remember your goal and do the right thing at the right time. Try to catch up with the lecturer's steps during the lecture. If you successfully do that, it will save you a lot of time in studying. More importantly, make a revision after every lecture. You may understand the materials well in the lecture, but you may forget everything if you make no revision. Studying should be treated as a daily routine. So, get into habit of studying. Also, try to get familiar with Google. Do not expect that you can learn everything from the lecturer during the lecture. Lecturers cannot teach you all the knowledge. “Give you a fish and you can eat for a day. Teach you to fish and you can eat for a lifetime.” Bear in mind that what we learn from the lecturers is how to fish. Do not bury your curiosity. Always strive to find out the reason behind the theory. “Chase excellence, success will follow.” Excellence is not only knowing what the things did, but knowing how and why they did. You should consult your lecturer if you have any confusion. If you are not comfortable to do so in front of the whole class, you could consider using E-mail. As the old saying goes: “Never give up”, it sounds preaching but it is truly real. If you give up, you will definitely have no chance. Certain percents of something is better than one hundred percents of nothing. So keep in your mind that miracle can only occur if you do not give up. The final thing that I would like to remind is that “Man proposes, but God disposes”. It is more than enough to do your best. Do not put too much pressure on yourself. Always remember that academic study is not the only thing in your life. Good luck.

Higher Diploma in Information Technology (Security Stream, 2013-2015)
My learning journey on Information Technology dated back to two years ago when I joined the HKU SPACE Community College. A mass of practical knowledge provided here was certainly able to help me develop a career success in the IT industry through this programme. Obviously, a motto has always appeared in my mind after I have engaged in this programme, “Grades and results are not your goals for studying, competences should be the key thing for you to acquire here”. Applying the knowledge that we have learnt and equipping sufficient practical experience were the most valuable outcomes for me in these two years. The courses have equipped me with plenty of practical skills, the knowledge of IT governance, IS Audit and so on. It helps me realize the real life situation in this industry, rather than theories only. Meanwhile, all group projects and skill tests were able to strengthen my self-problem solving ability since we have to fix all predicaments that we faced on our own instead of seeking assistance all over the time. “No more relying on the others and waiting for the answer, try to solve it by yourself”. This might be the main feature of the educational culture of HKU SPACE Community College. When I look back in these two years, truly speaking, it is a treasurable chance for me to study at HKU SPACE Community College since the backgrounds and attitudes of the lecturers are tremendously professional and serious; their self-working experiences could be the guidance or model for you to step into the specific industry later on. And, these factors helped me acquire an excellent result and make use of scholarships for taking the examinations of different certificates, like ITIL, CISSP and CISA. Consequently, HKU SPACE CC has helped me build up a career success and provided something for which the universities might not be able to do so.

2013-14 Associate of Science, Year 1
失望和迷茫最適合形容我放榜時的心情,我選擇了港大附屬學院,因為中學老師都說港大附屬學院師資優良,升學率高,特別是升讀我夢想的學系-香港大學理學系。港大附屬學院細心的課程編排,講師的悉心教導,都令我對理學產生濃厚興趣。多問、多假設、多練習,是我在學院領略到的心法。同時,學院豐富了我的人際關係,好些同學成了摯友,講師也成了我的人生導師。我由衷的感謝港大附屬學院,一個令我成長、實現夢想的地方。

Tang Lung Kit
Student of Higher Diploma in Information Technology (2012-2014)
Everyone has a dream of studying in university. Unfortunately, I failed my HKDSE. After receiving my HKDSE result, I didn’t know where I should go at that time. Thankfully, I got into HKU SPACE CC and gained a lot from the Higher Diploma in Information Technology (HD IT) programme. During these two years, I learnt a lot from my lecturers and friends; not only academically, but also life experience. Lecturers would kindly share their experiences to us, especially work experience and their stories. They would offer a helping hand when we are facing problems. Besides, friendship is also an important treasure you will get here. Happiness and sadness should be shared with your friends. For me, I got a low GPA in semester one. Fortunately, my friends and lecturers supported me and encouraged me to put more effort in my study. Now, I am striving for CCENT in the coming year. HD IT is about different domains of information technology, and I have chosen networking as my major subject. In the networking stream, lecturers taught us networking step-by-step. For hands-on experiments, we can use routers, switches and other network devices to practise our skill in controlling them. Frankly, it is interesting for us to control the network by our hands and knowledge. I can still remember the satisfaction of making the network function. Apart from academic life, HKU SPACE CC provided many chances to improve my CV. I was selected to participate into the 10th Cisco Hong Kong-Macau Youth Networking Skills Competition last year and awarded with merit. This competition has widened my horizons and expanded my resume, which is very useful for my future career. Last but not least, I am proud of being a student of Higher Diploma in Information Technology programme. Studying in HKU SPACE CC is not just only to learn knowledge, but also to bring a lot of unforgettable memories and make friends, who can fight for the goal together. Now, I am admitted to the Department of Computer Science at HKUST for my further study successfully.

Offer received: PolyU Social Policy & Administration (Year 3)
Because of failure in public examination, I had low self-confidence and no hope towards my future. However, I experienced a turning point here. I started to study hard with passion, to become a committee member and speak publicly, and to believe in my ability. Definitely, I experienced moments of sorrow and fear. However, when you work hard, focus on the goals and keep moving on with perseverance, what you receive is far more than what you expect. I cherish memories of studying here. This is a journey of a lifetime. Let’s study hard, work hard and play hard. Believe yourself and you can do it.
