College Life

The Higher Diploma in Medical and Health Products Management programme equips me with a lot of basic knowledge of medical related subjects while summer internship let me gain the physical working experience in related field. Joining different activities organised by the College like study tours, IELTS preparation course and university interview techniques also broaden my other types of knowledge. Since the teaching style and studying environment at the College are similar to that of the University, I believe it can definitely help me to easily adapt to my Radiography programme in the Poly U.

I was really grateful to study at HPSHCC for the past two years. The resources, teachers and classmates of the college were great. I felt more motivated to work hard with less pressure during the studies. Some of the lecturers were experienced social workers. They shared with us many real cases that they have dealt with in the past. They usually concerned about what type of social workers students are suitable for, and discussed the prospects so that I could have a clear plan about my career path.

HPSHCC provided students with different internship and overseas exchange opportunities. Students can apply the knowledge they learned in class and broaden their horizons. Last summer, we went to China Medical University Hospital for a two-week internship. We received practical training in the Testing Department and Pharmacy Department, which helped me understand the operations of the hospital. I really felt grateful that the college provided us such a valuable opportunity which made my study life fruitful and colourful.

由於會考成績分數不足夠升讀預科，聽取家人和老師的意見後，我便選擇另一條出路，報讀較實用的高級文憑課程。醫療及保健產品管理高級文憑課程中的科目很符合我這個理科生的興趣，而保健產品管理屬於新興行業，具有莫大發展潛力。故此，我報讀了這個高級文憑課程。

課程教授的內容、書院的學習模式與大學相似，有助同學將來易於適應大學生活；而必修的中、英文課，進一步提升同學的語文能力。此外，循序漸進及多元化的課程設計，讓同學能夠逐步邁向專業範疇，確立未來目標。而來自業界的講師，除課堂知識外還提供不少有關行業的最新資訊，無論對日後升學或就業都有幫助。

三年的書院生活，令我重新認識自己，比以前更積極、主動。書院舉辦的參觀和工作實習，令我認識到不同商業機構的真實運作模式，以及明白自己不足之處，獲益不少。
