Cheng Ka Yuet, Kelvin
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.

2017 Flight Attendant, Hong Kong Airlines
When I first studied this programme, I was lost and couldn’t find my path in the future. After two years of study, I knew that I gained a lot from the programme.
This programme allowed me to join various activities. I was fortunate to be given a chance to attend study trips to airshows, conferences and training. We had the opportunities to communicate with the experts in aviation, to have a closer look at all kinds of aircraft and aviation technologies. Apart from learning, the college also arranged sightseeing sessions during the trip. I did have fun and enjoyed participating in these activities, which enhanced my interest in aviation and the bonding between classmates. It was also beneficial to our personal development by gaining exposure from different cultures outside of Hong Kong.
Besides academic activities, the programme team also arranged some extra-curricular events like orientation camp, fellowship dinner and barbecue party for current students and alumni. You may even have a chance to organise an event on your own, from planning to implementation. This programme offers opportunities for you to let your creative juices flow and enables you to put what you have learnt to good use.
Remember, every end is a new beginning.

The two-year life here has helped me develop my interest and discover what I want. The lecturers were always willing to give a helping hand to us and explained to us patiently when we did not understand anything. The knowledge I learned here is very useful for my further study in the university which makes my studies easier and more effective.

Global Operations Specialist, Flexport Inc.
Studying Aviation Studies (Operation Stream) as my specialism at HKU SPACE CC has strengthened my interest and career goal in aviation management. The elementary aviation course equipped me with basic aviation knowledge. With a strong interest in applying concepts and theories to real situations, I joined an internship programme as a Customer Services Officer in Hong Kong Aviation Ground Services Limited (HAGSL) in the summer of 2017. I performed ground handling services at Hong Kong International Airport, including boarding gate and arrival duties, which broadened my knowledge of ground service handling in airports. I also participated in the Incheon Airport Aviation Academy – Junior Airport Management Course, where I learned about the trends of aviation business worldwide, airport operations at Incheon airport, and visited the airside. Additionally, I joined study tours to Singapore and Australia, which allowed me to explore different cultures, foods, people, and transport etc. One of the unforgettable moments was my flying experience with a Cessna 172 at Moorabbin Airport in Melbourne, Australia. I remember that the weather was rainy in the morning, and I was worried that I would be unable to fly. Sometimes, the sky is unpredictable, but it turned out that I was able to fly the plane with a stunning sunset!
After my remarkable two-year Higher Diploma study in HKU SPACE CC, I realized that I made the right choice!

2016-18 Associate of Health Science (Nursing Studies)
With 19 marks obtained in HKDSE, I studied in Associate of Nursing Studies in HKU SPACE CC. I wanted to be a truly competent person before admitting to the university. During the 2-year journey, I explored part of the nursing world and understood more about my strengths, weaknesses, as well as personality. I realised that I was more interested in Occupational Therapy, which I chose to study finally. Studying in HKU SPACE CC gave me a second chance to explore my career path and myself, so that I could choose a more suitable path.
