Cheung Tsz Chun, Anson
Customer Service Assistant, Airport Authority
As an enthusiast aiming to enter aviation industry, I am so glad to have studied Higher Diploma in Aviation Studies programme at HKU SPACE CC, at which I have acquired a variety of practical knowledge and experience. Thankfully, I am currently studying the Bachelor of Arts at The University of Hong Kong, and holding the post of Customer Service Assistant at the Airport Authority Hong Kong.
This programme, I believe, was an essential pathway to both academic achievements and successful career. Not only did the courses offer an array of aviation knowledge and theories, but also great opportunities to have hands-on experience that enhance my analytical competence. The one impressing me most was definitely the project on risk management for Heliservices (HK) Limited. Through the process as a leader in a group, I was inspired to utilise a variety of systematic approaches for accurate and comprehensive analysis of safety hazards identified, as well as their potential cumulative consequences. Examples were cost-benefit analysis and CLEAR Model of decision making, to name but a few. My group’s outstanding analysis, thankfully, was appreciated by aviation professionals and lecturers, hence we received Heliservices Outstanding Safety Risk Management Project Award, and won a free helicopter ride. So effective were the analytical methods that I got used to thinking in multi-dimensional, critical and logical way. Since these are the indispensable factors of academic achievements and successful career, this programme is no doubt beneficial for anyone who pursues further studies or position as a professional operating personnel in aviation industry.

BA in Translation, CityU (Year 1)
Having studied in HKU SPACE CC for one year is really a fruitful experience. Not only the translation skills and theories I have learnt, but also the lecturers who were always willing to help and support us by giving valuable advice on non-JUPAS application and study tips. The time spent in the Taiwan study tour was invaluable too. All these have prepared me well in continuing my study of translation in the City University of Hong Kong.

I can swim in the water, I can walk on the ground and why can't I fly in the sky ? Being a pilot has always been my dream since I was a kid like 6,7 years old, but a dream means nothing if you never set it as a goal and give a try, so I decided to try my luck here. Nothing valuable comes easy, people laughed at me because I gave up the normal path and made the decision to chase my dream two years ago, thought I have not completed my reason and become a pilot, at least I can tell everyone that making the decision to study here is undoubtedly a correct choice as it has provided me knowledge to do what I want to do, provided me the experience that allow me to be a competitive person in this society and industry, and most importantly happiness, as I have met friends here and lecturers who are always willing to help me out when I face any challenge.
Throughout the two year study here, I have learnt things like Risk Management, Basic Aeronautical Knowledge, Airline and airport operation and stuffs like that, every single aspect of the airport operation has been covered in the programme which has enhanced my knowledge towards the whole industry and most importantly, to get myself be well-prepared to join the industry. Besides, I had been working in Cathay Pacific as an intern for 1 year, as the position of Customer Service Specialist at the Global Contact Centre department, being able to work in such a giant company with great reputation at the age of 18,19 is nearly impossible, but this programme has granted the chance to. All in all, it is a great opportunity to work there and the one year experience was great, I have learnt so many things from that, which allows me to be a more all-rounded student and not just learning from books and notes, but also from real-life experience.
Also, I had been to Korea and joined the Incheon Airport Aviation Academy study trip in 2016, as you know, the Inchecon Airport is one of the best and most impressive airport in the world, having a better reputation than hundreds and thousands of airports in the globe including the Hong Kong International Airport. Aviation is an industry that is an international one, so to improve ourselves, we must take other places as reference, learn from their good and get rid of the bad. Although I have only joined one study trip, I have to say that you are going to learn more than just sitting at the library and read the books. As what Thomas Fuller said, He that travels far knows much, go travel the world, observe the others’ culture and you will find that you are just a small piece in the universe, and there are trillions of things you still have to learn.
Dream High, Fly High !
Be a part of us, instead of be apart from us !
Come join our family !

Higher Diploma in Information Technology (Computing Stream, 2016-17)
Personally, this year has been my year of self-reflection and self-evaluation. You may be doubting yourself right now, but trust me, I had been in the same place. I can tell you that the best thing to do now is to treat this as a new beginning, and that’s exactly what I did in HKU SPACE CC. It is a good thing I have picked the right place to pursue my education. HKU SPACE CC provides a strong supportive backbone for students’ success, where workshops, seminars, mock interviews, counselling services and even visit to a tech company were available for enriching our education, and of course I utilized all of them for my academic success. Not enough? Believe it, lecturers and staffs will listen to what you have to say if you hit them with an email. With CC’s emphasis on team building, I got to meet many great people during group projects, and I managed to score some lifelong friends too! The programme of Higher Diploma in Information Technology provides you with wide range of knowledge that are both suitable for the workplace and further studies. Majority of the lecturers are not only equipped with course related expertise, but also with insights of the IT industry. Don’t be afraid to chat with them. Instead, you should take your learning outside of your classrooms whenever possible! Our lecturers also encourage us to explore with possibilities. Be it working in a big tech company, going to universities or creating the next big hit tech gadget. Before HKU SPACE CC, I already knew how to write a computer application on my own. However, after studying at CC, I know how to manage a project team, to enhance security and to troubleshoot networking problems in my application. From an elementary student in ICT, I have now become a more comprehensive student, ready to take on any challenges thrown in my way. Thanks to this programme, staffs and the teachers who have taught me, my passion in IT has been consolidated, and now I’m ready to take my education to the next level. My advice to you is to make alliance with people with common goals, take initiative inside and outside of your classrooms and at last, have a fantastic time in HKU SPACE CC, which I’m sure you will. At the end, I’d like to give a shout out to the ladies out there who are interested in IT but afraid to make the first step. With determination and hard work, you can get anywhere! If you ever feel lonely walking on this not yet popular path, come find me and we can empower each other in this endeavour!

BA (Hon) in Language Studies, senior year in EdUHK
Translation is not all about manipulating languages, in fact we must have a good knowledge of the different forms of writing and what the authors want to deliver. The two years of study has also fostered my understanding of different cultures and why they are so different from one another.
