Terence LEUNG
Alumnus of 'MA in Visual Arts' programme, Academy of Visual Arts

The MA in Visual Arts programme did not spoon-feed me with model answers, but challenged my assumptions and encouraged me to examine the subject matter from new perspectives and search for my own answer. For this, I am grateful to my teachers for their invaluable insights and professional advice. I also enjoyed studying and creating arts in the beautiful and tranquil Kai Tak campus. Overall, it was an eye-opening and unforgettable experience for me.

LEE Ying Tan
Alumnus of 'Master of Pharmaceutical Sciences in Chinese Medicine' programme, School of Chinese Medicine
Graduation Year: 2017
The pharmaceutical sciences in Chinese medicine programme has combined both theories and practices which enables students to learn the latest development in Chinese medicine and gain hands on experience in clinical diagnosis and drug prescriptions. During my studies, I was taught by experienced professors on the pharmaceutical processes and had the opportunity to witness the development and production of crude drugs. The training is so much more than becoming a specialist in Chinese medicine. You can also learn about quality assurance, drug safety assessment, production management and much more.
Kennie CHANG Jie

When I decided to study in the programme, I was determined to advance my professional knowledge in environmental hygiene and health. I came to understand more about environmental management and its related social issues through intensive lectures, site visits and exchange activities. I also gained invaluable experience in food safety and pesticide control during the summer internship at the World Health Organization headquarters. In order to apply what I have learned, I changed my field of work to mosquito control when I returned to Hong Kong from my internship.

LEUNG Yue Sang
Alumnus of 'MSocSc (Contemporary China Studies)' programme, Faculty of Social Sciences
Graduation Year: 2017
Current Position/ Name of Employer: Associate Project Coordinator, Hong Kong Museum of History; Author
I am a retired secondary school teacher specialising in ancient China history. The MSocSc in Contemporary China programme is no doubt a good choice to fill in my knowledge gap in the development of contemporary China. The programme helps me deepen the understanding of contemporary China from political, historical, economic, geographical and sociological perspectives. I would say that the programme is suitable for current teachers in all disciplines. It would also add value to those who are working in the China trading and investment industries, and would definitely advance their career development.
