College Life

“Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid” - Albert Einstein

Hong Kong Public examination is asking everyone to climb a tree but that is not the only way to prove your own ability. Everyone has his/her own abilities and is a particular “genius”.

At HPSHCC, it offers various types of courses for different geniuses. You can find your own passion and develop it into your profession.

For me, I have passion about knowledge on the use of medicine when studying the Higher Diploma programme in Medical and Health Products Management (MHPM). It provides me a great course structure with supportive lecturers. I am proud of myself for finding my own passion and having chosen to be a pharmacist after I graduated in MHPH. I am grateful for the teachers from MHPM who helped me to find my career path.

Without HPSHCC, maybe I would still be a stupid fish which keeps trying to climb a tree.

In these two years, I have met many friends who have similar dreams as mine. We worked hard and studied hard together to achieve our goals. All the lecturers in this Higher Diploma programme are very kind and always willing to help when I faced difficulties. Besides, this programme also provided both local and overseas internship opportunities to us. The two-week training programme at Tajen University was a treasurable experience for me. 

I am interested in nursing and would like to further my study in the related fields. This HD programme taught us medical knowledge such as pharmaceutics, microbiology, anatomy and physiology which is very useful. I also had the opportunity to visit Tai Po Hospital and to have a better understanding of the healthcare system in Hong Kong. With the help of lecturers, I have more confidence in myself and am ready to embark on new endeavours in the university.

The programme provides the knowledge of medical and pharmacological sciences which helped me to find my interest and prepare for my future career in science-related fields. Lecturers are very helpful and gave me a lot of advice. Apart from studying, I have joined an impressive study tour at Chung Shan Medical University Hospital last year. It was a valuable opportunity that allowed students to learn practical procedures of different departments. These experiences enriched my college life at HPSHCC.

This course covers Anatomy, Physiology, Pharmacology and Microbiology so that we can gain knowledge in different areas of basic medical sciences as a preparation for further medical/health-related studies. 

Last summer, I participated in the summer internship at Centre for Genomic Sciences, the University of Hong Kong Li Ka Shing Faculty of Medicine where I learned to do experiments using professional instruments. In these two years, the college provides a lot of support and comfortable learning environment to help us achieve our goals.

I am glad that I chose to study at this College. The lecturers tried their best to help us articulate to universities. This programme not only provided us with basic knowledge of health sciences but also offered various experiential learning opportunities. I have participated in the internship programme at Chung Shan Medical University Hospital which inspired me to select a meaningful programme for my future study and a rewarding career. All in all, my college life was very fruitful and I must thank for all the things that the College has given me.

I have a lot of interest in the nursing field and found the articulation of this programme attractive. The lecturers were helpful and they gave us good advice for studying. Also, the programme taught us medical knowledge such as anatomy and physiology which is very useful. My experience from the internship and the study tour strengthened my knowledge in the medical field. Now, I have prepared well for my study in the university.

This programme provided a lot of professional skills and knowledge to me which were very helpful in future studies. On the other hand, the lecturers were very patient and helped me a lot. Moreover, I participated in the Taiwan(Pingtung) internship last year. This internship broadened my horizons and the whole experience was very useful.
