I am glad that I have a group of good classmates. They are very supportive and are willing to help each other. The strong learning atmosphere is my motivation to go to school. The SDRC team is always happy to answer questions from students. They are our strong backing. I often share my troubles in academic studies or applying for universities.

The curriculum of the Higher Diploma programme in Medical and Health Products Management is well-structured and designed. I am equipped with solid theoretical knowledge and given opportunities to apply what I have learnt. Lecturers stimulated  and taught us how to achieve our goals. We had various platforms to apply the acquired knowledge, including internship opportunities at the Department of Psychiatry of Laboratory in the University of Hong Kong, visits to different local hospitals and medical companies, and overseas programmes at Queensland University of Technology in Australia etc. All of these experiences gave me confidence to work in the medical field.

During my two years of study at HPSHCC, I truly appreciated that I met a number of patient lecturers and schoolmates. Moreover, the programme provided students with a broad range of knowledge and experiential learning. For instance, I had an internship opportunity at the Department of Psychiatry Laboratory of the University of Hong Kong. All of these training and experiences molded me into a different and better person compared with what I used to be. 

Some people may think that a higher diploma or a sub-degree student is less capable and motivated than students who were admitted directly to the universities through JUPAS. My experience proved that it’s not true. I believe everything is possible if you put an effort into it, and FIGIT FOR IT.
