Enid Lam Higher Diploma in Information Technology (Web and Multimedia Development Stream, 2012-2013)

As a final HKALE candidate in 2012, I was disheartened by my examination results which did not enable me to be admitted to university. I was confused about my future. I thought my dream of university life was broken. Fortunately, I chose to study the Higher Diploma in Information Technology at HKU SPACE Community College. After a year, my dream came true. The College life is completely different from secondary school. During this year, I have learnt many practical skills in IT and the College has provided me with abundant resources for my study. The schedule of classes wasn’t tight so that I have studied without pressure. Meanwhile, I can have the right balance between rest and study. The lecturers are very supportive and always share their experience with us. The most important thing is that they have helped me to build up self-confidence. I believe I will rise to the challenge in my further studies, and be capable to solve any problems that come my way. Studying in HKU SPACE CC was an unforgettable year. This provided me with a springboard for the admission to the Bachelor of Engineering at The University of Hong Kong. View Details

Au Ching Mei, Envose 2013-14 年度應用科學副學士（計算機科學）二年級學生

當初想繼續學業，所以在公開試放榜後報讀副學士課程，選讀了我感興趣的電腦學科。優秀的師資，加上講師非常樂意解答我學業上的疑難，讓我學習更容易上手，打下良好堅實的電腦基礎；在升學選擇上，講師給予很多有用的意見，提醒我們盡早準備充足。隨着對電腦學科的認識加深，我更加喜愛這課程，皆因它讓我能夠發揮所長。在港大附屬學院的兩年是非常寶貴的經驗。我在這裏得以重新振作，成長了很多。尤其是心態上的轉變，由當初對未來感到徬徨，到現在能夠堅定地朝着目標進發，著實得來不易。很感謝在學院認識到的講師和好友，他們的關懷與支持，令我明白自己並不是孤軍作戰，也讓我擁有更寬容開朗的心態。 View Details

Chan Chung Ho, Matthew The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Social Science

I am currently an undergraduate student in The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), majoring in Global Studies. The area of focus is about international relations and politics in global affairs. Before joining CUHK, I decided to take a year of full-time employment in order to subsidize my further studies after graduating from the Higher Diploma in Aviation Studies programme of HKU SPACE CC. From my previous work experiences in the discipline of flight operations at a local aviation ground handling agent, I came across many real life complexities for which I could make good use of what I have learnt about the industry, and that further enabled me to demonstrate certain levels of familiarity to get job tasks done within real-life constraints. During my study in the Higher Diploma in Aviation Studies programme, I was luckily selected as a student representative to participate in the conferences organised by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) - Next Generation Aviation Professionals Outreach Committee. My role was to work with my teammates through meetings and give presentations to different aviation stakeholders from different countries. We gave ideas on how to tackle the anticipated shortage of competent personnel required by the industry from a student’s point of view. Through the Higher Diploma in Aviation Studies programme, I received the opportunity to join an internship in a business jet company in Hong Kong, Metrojet Ltd. During the 2-month internship training, I had job rotations in three departments within Metrojet, which were the Engineering Department, Corporate Safety Department and Flight Operations Department. At the end of the internship, I gave presentations to the management board of the company regarding the key learning areas gained in each department as a conclusion of the whole internship programme. Overall, the Aviation programme has equipped me with extensive specialized knowledge of the industry and provided me with lots of opportunities to get involved in the real-life industrial situations even when I was just a student with no practical experience. My enthusiasm for aviation has simply been sparked further by the programme. The experience had dramatically changed my mind when I stepped far outside my comfort zone. View Details
