I started my career in dentistry as a dental surgery assistant before being enroled into the Dental Hygiene programme. It is indeed my luck and pleasure to have the opportunity to further my study in the dental field. I still remember how excited I was on the day I received the offer. HKU SPACE Community College, with the support of the Faculty of Dentistry of HKU, provided a qualified and complementary course. Throughout these two years, my life has been significantly enriched and enlightened. The instructors were very knowledgeable, approachable and caring, and they taught from a problem-based approach, which enabled us to gain in-depth understanding of the topics and develop advanced reasoning skills. I am certain that the clinical experience and guidance acquired in the programme will lead me to a successful and rewarding career. Dental Hygienist is a career more than earning a living. It is interesting because we perform a wide variety of tasks to prevent oral diseases and promote oral health. In addition to enhancing one’s quality of life, it is a wonderful adventure to communicate with different people from all walks of life. View Details

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！ View Details

The two years at HKU SPACE CC not only equipped me with knowledge and skills in the translation field, but also inspired me to explore this area and achieve my full potential further. It has been my stepping stone to my dream to obtain a major in Translation at CUHK. The practical translation and interpreting skills I have learnt from HD (TRA) has honed my abilities and proficiency to handle challenging courses in CUHK now. I am grateful for the opportunity that this programme has offered me. View Details

Apart from equipping students well knowledge in the field of science, this programme provides us a chance to prepare ourselves for future university life. Even if one’s HKDSE results may not be desirable, there are many other channels that can lead you to a fruitful future. The lecturers are professional, supportive and caring. They are willing to help us in all aspects of academics, and the notes provided are carefully selected and tailored for the students. As such, this encourages us to learn and break any learning boundaries. HKU SPACE CC offers students a good platform to explore and learn outside the classroom. The inter-disciplinary learning appeals to students as it allows students from different majors to exchange ideas from their own subjects. This facilitates a deeper discussion of topics and unique perspectives on problems and concepts. Be brave, gentle and sincere in CC, and you will reach your goals eventually. View Details

My school life in HKU SPACE CC was fruitful yet challenging. Here are the five key elements that summarize the 2 years of Archi-life. First, team work is quintessential to every aspect of my learning experience, from learning to cooperate and communicate, to achieving a goal that could not otherwise be achieved, to sharing ideas and learning from each other. This makes you and the team/ classmate grow together. Second, active learning is part of architecture. While an engineer knows everything about something, an architect ought to know something about everything. This is very different from secondary school life, where instead of being told what you must do, you must decide on your scope of study and decide on your design direction where there is no right and wrong. For example, in one of the projects we participated - Together We Build, we were given an objective to design a furniture for an elderly center. To build something, you must understand a lot of different aspects, including the end user, the site and the surrounding environment. You must also decide how to conduct your own survey. You need to constantly put yourself into the end users’ shoes to build a good design that suit their lifestyle. Third, a “can-do” mentality is crucial to an architectural student. You should never give up before you try, because then you would never know what you are capable of. One of the projects we built was a 1-to-1 scale model, and we chose an aquaponics system, which turned out to be incredibly complex, extremely difficult. But more importantly, doable. Which brings me to the fourth point. Passion is what helps you through the day, gives you the “can-do” mentality, and helps you knock down obstacles one by one. Architectural students are those who keep improving the design within the time given—although there will be obstacles. Having passion is what drives one to overcome them, making us stronger and more persistent, and helping us overcome our failures. Fifth, I’m also glad to have such a great team of tutors and mentors here. They are very experienced in their fields, some are even still working in the field and therefore are knowledgeable with up-to-date practical suggestions, know-how and advice. They are all willing to and patient to share their thoughts and experiences, which has sped up my learning curve. Architectural study is really fun, because it is not just about schooling; it is a mindset, a way of thinking and a key for us to open up our curiosity to everyday life. View Details
