College Life

The knowledge and internship opportunities provided by the programme have allowed me to gain a deeper understanding of the needs of the Hong Kong sports industry, while also equipping me with the skills and experience to tackle future career challenges.

During my two years of study at HPSHCC, I faced numerous challenges, but I was fortunate to have supportive classmates who stood by me and helped me overcome these difficulties. The guidance and encouragement from lecturers and Student Development Officers also provided me with valuable insights into my future development, enabling me to successfully complete the programme and confidently pursue my university studies.

I am deeply grateful to the College for providing an excellent learning environment and high-quality educational resources. The professional lecturers have significantly enhanced my understanding of Tourism and Events Management as a discipline. Their guidance has not only helped me discover my academic interests but also clarified my career aspirations. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all the lecturers who have instructed me over the past two years.

Throughout my academic journey at HPSHCC, I gained a wealth of knowledge from this programme, particularly in Pharmacology, Anatomy, and Physiology. These courses equipped me well for university. Furthermore, lecturers were always patient in explaining concepts whenever I encountered difficulties, ensuring that I fully understood the lessons. At the college, I met many schoolmates from different disciplines, and we each played to our strengths to complete our group projects together. This learning module not only enhanced my teamwork skills but also strengthened my social abilities, which will be very helpful for my future interactions with others.

During my two-year study for the Higher Diploma in Medical and Health Products Management at HPSHCC, the experience was enriching and unforgettable. I acquired foundational knowledge essential for medical professionals, including human physiology, pathology, and microbiology, which has laid a solid foundation for my future studies. With persistence and effort, I successfully gained admission to my dream university degree programme.

I am especially grateful to my lecturers, who were not only teachers but also friends. They often stayed after class to discuss learning and academic planning, inspiring me greatly.

To my juniors, I would like to say: Stay curious and have the courage to try. The learning journey will inevitably bring pressure, but every breakthrough shapes a stronger version of you. Keep it up!

As a student who transitioned from the Foundation Diploma, I initially thought it would be challenging to keep up with the coursework. Fortunately, the lecturers were incredibly patient in addressing my questions and promptly responding to my emails, which helped me quickly get back on track.

Mr. Henry Leung and Mr. Victor Yeung effectively used real-life cases to explain complex concepts, stimulating my critical thinking and deepening my understanding. Throughout these two years of study, I gained a solid foundation of knowledge, which has significantly enhanced my ability to adapt to university lectures and academic life.

Two years ago, uncertain about my career and academic path, I discovered this programme, which has been transformative. Its comprehensive content covers property management and surveying, allowing students to explore their interests through diverse courses over two years of study. All the lecturers are professionals with practical experience in their fields, and they willingly sharing up-to-date insights into related careers, which enriches our understanding. Through this wealth of knowledge and shared experience, I have gained a solid foundation. Therefore, I highly recommend this programme to students interested in property management or surveying.

My two years in the Higher Diploma in Surveying and Property Management have been incredibly rewarding. I gained practical skills in building maintenance, valuation, and property law, while internships provided valuable real-world industry insights. The programme’s university-style teaching, including research projects and case studies, honed my critical thinking and adaptability, preparing me well for my degree at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University.

Don’t let setbacks define you. With hard work and determination, a Higher Diploma can be a strong stepping stone to university. I’m grateful for my lecturers’ guidance and classmates’ support — this journey has shown me that persistence opens doors.

My journey as a Higher Diploma in Tourism and Hospitality Management student at HPSHCC has been incredibly rewarding. Over the past two years, I have gained in-depth knowledge of hotel operations through both coursework and practical training.

One of the most valuable experiences was my internship, where I had the opportunity to apply my classroom learning in a real-world hospitality environment. Through this hands-on training, I significantly improved my communication skills by interacting with guests from diverse backgrounds, handling inquiries, and resolving service issues. Additionally, I honed my problem-solving abilities by managing unexpected challenges and strengthened my teamwork by collaborating with colleagues to ensure smooth operations. This internship not only enhanced my professional skills but also solidified my vision for my future career path. I am grateful to HPSHCC for providing such practical learning opportunities and look forward to further developing my expertise in the hospitality industry.

The greatest reward of studying at HPSHCC is knowing that “no risk, no story” and that it is never too late to chase your dreams. The College provides a good opportunity to learn more about the industry through the internship programme, which has clarified my future career path. Lastly, I would like to thank all the supporters I have met at HPSHCC: I made it! See you at PolyU!
