Students Sharing 2017 Summer Abroad Programme

What Participants Say…

University of British Columbia Vancouver Summer Program, Canada​

IP So Hang (BBA, Year 3)

I am glad to have had so much fun and memorable moments in Vancouver. This programme offered us lessons of political science and international finance. In UBC, the teaching method is far more interactive, enabling students to express their thoughts. Teachers also encouraged us to discuss and think critically. The programme also offers a wide range of extracurricular activities, such as hiking, blueberry picking, kayaking etc. I could be able to engage in the different cultures and lifestyle of Canada and learn more about the country. I am also able to meet friends from different countries, such as Mainland China, Mexico, the UK, Dubai, India and the Netherlands. By exchanging our cultural ideas, that helps to broaden my horizons.

上海交通大學 2017 年博物館探索營計劃, Mainland China

CHAU Ka Lok (Third from the right, the front row)

CHAU Ka Lok (BJC, Year 2)

今次的上海交通大學2017年博物館探索營令我獲益良多。首先，我被安排到上海電影博物館實習，負責管理及教育互動的工作。而我從小就喜歡看王家衛及梁朝偉的電影，而該館經理得悉後立刻向我展示收藏於館內<色戒>在威尼斯電影節所獲的獎狀，及後又展示模擬<色戒>的拍攝場景。再而講述上海電影的發展，我這才發現原來港滬兩地的電影業不斷相互影響並進行良性競爭，促使港滬兩地成為中國電影業上兩個至關重要的地方。完成博物館的實習後，我們到山西的大同及太原進行考察。我對山西的印象原本以為只有煤及農民，可是經過考察之後才知道山西曾經是古代中國的首都，並且是中原及絲綢之路的必經之路，具有重大的歷史價值。而我最難忘的便是位於大同的懸空寺。該寺體現了古代中國對不同宗教的包容。寺內分別有佛教、道教及儒家的建築。寺廟是建於半山中，而且全寺只由木材建成，是後人都為之驚嘆的建築藝術，令我不禁讚嘆古人的鬼斧神工。

北京語言大學普通話學習與中國文化考察研修班

CHUNG Sin YU (BBA-SCM, Year 2)

在這二十一天的北京普通話研修班裡，我跟同學們在學習上有很大的得著。我們幾乎每天都在北京語言大學透過跟隨當地資深的語言系老師，朗讀普通話水平測試指定的課文、參與多次有關主題個人短講和模擬普通話水平測試，清楚了解自己常犯的發音錯誤，繼而進一步糾正自己普通話的發音以及加深認識變聲調的運用。另外，學校還安排一場由普通話水平測試評核員主辦的講座，讓我們了解對普通話水平測試各部分的要求，包括學生常犯的錯誤和發音要注意的地方，對我們未來要面對的普通話水平測試有很大的幫助。學校亦精心安排一些中國文化體驗和參觀活動，例如觀看京劇、學習書法和沏茶及到訪故宮、長城、頤和園等中國著名的歷史古跡，讓我深入認識中華歷史。

CHAN Kin Fung (BBA-FA, Year 3)

I enjoyed the Summer School very much and I have participated in many interesting activities with other students from all over the world. Besides offering Korean lessons, the programme also included different activities for us to learn various aspects of Korean culture. We have learnt Taekwondo, traditional music instruments, Korean dance etc. We also took some field trips, including visiting a national park and the United Nations Memorial Cemetery. This fruitful trip gives rise to many happy memories for me as I have built a close relationship with each of the participants during the programme.

Hertford College, Oxford Advanced English Language and British Culture Three Week Programme, UK

YIM Yu Sum (BA-ENG, Year 3)

I totally enjoyed the time spent in Oxford. I could hardly enjoy these activities in Hong Kong, such as playing Frisbee on a large piece of green grass together with new friends and punting in the river under a beautiful sunset. I had the opportunity to meet new friends, try new things and experience life in Oxford. Staying in Oxford helps me to get connected with the daily life of the UK. The atmosphere in the UK is awesome. The most important thing is that I could gain a perception of the British culture and improve my English. What a wonderful trip it is!

The First 100 Days of Trump Presidency, Study Tour in Washington D.C., US

YE Yingchong (Third from the right, front row)

YE Yingchong (BBA, Year 3)

During the tour to Washington, Aggie, the coordinator of the programme, introduced the main landmarks to us. She led us to the Newseum, where the most impressive historical events we found were wreckages of 911 Terrorist Incident and the Berlin Wall. Afterwards, we visited the National Air and Space Museum to know more about the history of flight and the lives of astronauts on the moon. We also spent time at the East-West Center, the Heritage Foundation and the US-China Business Council. People there were very friendly and willing to share with us. We had some in-depth discussions, which inspired me to think further on global issues Upon the visit, I had more insights on the situation of human rights and trading between the US and China.

What Participants Say…

University of British Columbia Vancouver Summer Program, Canada​

TSE Long Yuet (right)

TSE Long Yuet (BBA-MGT, Year 2)

I have joined the UBC summer exchange programme (June). I enjoyed the learning atmosphere at UBC; it is very different from my studying in Hong Kong. First, the students actively participated in class, we were allowed and encouraged to speak up even though  our opinions might be different or against the professors. Between the professors and us, we were more like friends than students and teachers, we would hang out after classes and talk about our lives beyond  the campus grounds.

Although all of the students were from different countries and colleges, we still worked as a team, create a long-lasting friendship and built  a strong bonding among us.

Aichi Shukutoku University 4-week Summer Japanese Programme, Japan

YIP Hoi Ching (BTB, Year 4)

It was really happy to study at Aichi Shukutoku University. Apart from Japanese language classes, we experienced Japanese culture through the traditional tea ceremony, ikebana, and shodo. I have met lots of overseas and local students there. My Japanese buddy took me to the Nagoya Port Aquarium and the fireworks festival. It was my first time wearing a yukata to participate in such a huge event in Japan, and I felt very excited. In total there were two classes with four students each. We were all exchange students and were taught by native Japanese teachers. Studying at ASU was really interesting  as we needed to create conversations from the pictures in Japanese almost every lesson.

LAM Tsz Wing (BSS-AS, Year 2)

During the week at Niigata, I had a deeper understanding of Niigata City. I have  learnt more about what is special in Niigata after tours to numerous places such as metal and knife production house. Our task was to conduct a 10-minute presentation on the final day to share how to promote the food culture and high-quality products of Japan to the world. There were two Japanese students in my group, and they helped a lot to acquire knowledge in different areas such as the language, Japanese geography, etc. It enabled me to do the presentation more effectively and efficiently as we exchanged ideas from  different kinds of perspectives.

上海交通大學2018年夏季學期交換生計劃, Mainland China

LAW Kai Chun (BBA, Year 2)

在今年暑假，我參加了上海交通大學的夏季學期交流計劃，那裏的校園很大，由宿舍到上課的地方也要步行15分鐘，故此，校園裏有很多設施，例如運動場，康樂中心等，讓我們在課餘時間消遣，在課餘時間我也會在校園內外到處逛，

在計劃中，我選了兩門課，一門是電子商務，另一門是數學實驗，在上海交通大學上課與在恒管上課不同的地方就是在課堂上，除了有來自香港的學生，也有台灣交流生，本地生和國際學生，我有機會和不同文化背景的同學在課堂上溝通交流，學習包括市場營銷在内的各種技巧。 最後提醒同學，因為課程需要，緊記要帶個人電腦到上海。

Chung-Ang University International Summer Program, South Korea

FONG Yuen Ting (First from right, second row)

FONG Yuen Ting (BBA, Year 2)

Joining the Chung-Ang University International Summer Programme is a really good and unforgettable experience. From this programme, I have not only learnt some basic Korean, but also gained a greater understanding of the Korean culture, society and also met lots of new friends. Among all the cultural events, the DMZ tour was my favourite. It provided us with a chance to get into the Korean Demilitarized Zone and the Joint Security Area. We have gained a deeper understanding of the Korea history, especially the Korea Civil War, and learnt more about the relationship between North and South Korea. It was a precious experience, and I enjoyed it.

2018 Hanyang ERICA Summer School, South Korea

FONG Lok Tim (BSS-AS, Year 2)

This summer abroad programme provided me with an opportunity to experience the local Korean culture and communicated with Koreans. In the classes, most of my classmates spoke Putonghua beside my friend and I. It was a great chance to learn Putonghua and Korean at the same time. My Korean teacher tried to build up a relaxed atmosphere in the learning process. She played K-pop songs during the break time and gave us Korean snacks in the class. Besides, we went to the Korea Traditional Culture Centre and I wore hanbok for the first time.  Moreover, we also learnt what people do on Korea Day.

2018 Hanyang International Summer School, South Korea

He Suyung (BSS-AS, Year 1)

This study tour has brought me lots of exposure and life experience. Hanyang offered a wide range of courses and activities for us to fully immerse in the Korean culture. Most importantly, I made countless unforgettable memories with my new friends from Russia, Malaysia and Taiwan and built a deep relationship with them. I was grateful for joining this summer school because it gave me a chance to understand different cultures, not just for Korea, but also other parts of the world. I truly believe the things I learnt and experienced during this study tour will be very useful for my study in the future.

Pukyong National University 2018 International Summer School, South Korea

LAM Yau Hei (BBA, Year 4)

I had an unforgettable memory in Busan summer exchange programme. I studied Introduction to Sailing Yacht in the morning. The course included theories and practical classes. I learnt to stand up paddle boarding during the course, and it was very interesting. We also joined some cultural activities in the afternoon. We learnt Taekwondo, Korean calligraphy, K-pop Dance, Korean food cooking and so on. We also went to some field trips including visiting the Aquarium, Gyeongju and Haeundae Beach. The programme allowed me to go deeply into Korean campus life and know more about Korea. It also created some wonderful memories for us. I also met some friends around the world such as Indonesia, Taiwan and Mainland China. What a wonderful summer programme in Busan.

LO Kar Li (BSS-AS, Year 1)

This was one of the best summers I had so far. Being in the small city of Oxford, I was like living in a dream everyday. Walking like locals, seeing these old and prestigious colleges of Oxford University everyday, even going to class on one was just overwhelming that even I see the same view everyday, I could not help but take pictures over and over again. I can talk about this experience for days. My professors who have been nothing but inspiring and helpful, new found friends with whom I shared my England adventures with and all the tiny bits of this programme is all worth sharing.

UCLA Summer Sessions, US

AU YEUNG Pui Ki (BBA, Year 3)

I took Environmental Economy and Astronomy in UCLA. The study atmosphere in UCLA was quite different from HSMC’s. Students participated actively in classes. They raised questions and discussed in class. Also, private study rooms were fully booked since week one, what an impressive learning attitude!  What’s more, the school campus was huge, providing many facilities and valuable resources to students. Sunset Canyon Recreation Center was where students could swim, play volleyball and barbecue; John Wooden Center was where students could do indoor rock climbing, weight training and saunas as well.

Students Sharing 2019 Summer Abroad Programme

What Participants Say…

Australian Catholic University (ACU) July School, Australia

WONG Cheuk Lam (BJC, Year 2)

My journey to ACU was wonderful and unforgettable. The staff members and teachers were friendly and always willing to help me and the other international students. They would like to share where the destinations we should visit apart from teaching.

There was a great difference of study atmosphere between Hong Kong and Sydney that the teachers in ACU were always inviting students to share their experiences or personal ideas. I was more engaged in the lessons there.

Linnaeus University Summer Academy, Sweden

WANG Jingshu (BJC, Year 1)

I had a wonderful time at Linnaeus University in Sweden this summer. In class, the teachers always interacted with our classmates, instead of giving lectures all the time while the students keep taking notes. At the same time, I also learned how to cooperate with people from different countries. Most importantly, I began to have a more diverse and critical view of things.

During my spare time, I participated in three trips organized by the Summer Academy. We went to the island to enjoy the natural scenery, went to moose park to get closer contact with animals, and went to Stockholm to experience more Swedish culture. Of course, I also met a lot of friends from other places, we explored nice food and visited local attractions!

That was literally a sweet memory and I will never forget it. Also, I am grateful to HSUHK for providing such an opportunity for me.

Hertford College, Oxford Advanced English Language and British Culture Three Week Programme, UK

YIP Ka Yi (BBA, Year 3)

In Oxford, the study atmosphere is quite different from Hong Kong. I was able to learn various topics like British fashion, music, movies, and even Shakespeare. They really encouraged us to discuss in class and talk more with the teachers and classmates. In this summer, I learnt not only the knowledge about Britain but also communication skills. I talked with teachers, Residential Advisors (RAs) and local people in English all the time to improve my language skills. Besides studying, we got a lot of free time as well. RAs prepared some tours for us on every Friday. We went to London together and to Stratford-upon-Avon the place where Shakespeare was born. The whole summer was fantastic, and it will be one of the memorable memories in my entire life. I wish I can have a chance to join this kind of summer courses or study in Oxford in the future.

University of British Columbia Vancouver Summer Program, Canada​

POON Hiu Yan (BBA, Year 3)

From 8 June 2018 to 8 July 2018, I joined an activity called UBC Vancouver Summer Program 2019 which was organized by The University of British Columbia (UBC). It has been a very rewarding and pleasant experience to me, and I have enjoyed my stay in Canada a lot.

The course that I find most impressive was International Business Management. It was because the professor gave us a lot of time to have discussions on the topics and current events happened all around the world. As there were international students from Mexico, India, Singapore and Mainland China, there were diverse mindsets in the class. The course was helping me to enhance my mindset, start to care about the news in worldwide and make real-world business decisions by concerning many international issues.

University of Niigata Prefecture - International Joint Summer Seminar, Japan

KWONG Kam Shan (BBA-MGT, Year 3)

This was the first time I travelled my own. We visited different factories, e.g. Miso factory, Sake factory, to learn the making process of food. Besides, we also participated in an experience of making fire by using Chinese traditional method and making Soba. We had a presentation in the last day of seminar which is a good chance for us to express our feeling and learning. Moreover, I needed to use three languages to communicate with my group mates, but it did not affect our friendship, it only took more time. During spare time, I hung out with Japanese girls form Yokohama and tried different kinds of food. I am glad to join this seminar.

上海交通大學2019年夏季學期交換生計劃, Mainland China

LIN Zhicheng (BBA, Year 4)

上海交通大學的美讓我陶醉了。如詩一般的園景，有著綠油油而空曠的大草原，有著安撫心靈的思源湖。 更重要的是，在這裡的3座圖書館，我感受到了書香彌漫，學習氣氛濃郁，讓人不由自主地想在知識方面有所增長。

說說我來上交大最主要的目的吧，就是上一門我選修了的電子商務創新與戰略。內地電子商務日新月異，每年似乎都有一股新的氣象，我充滿著期待從香港來到了上海，等待著這一個月的課。非常幸運地，我們的教授是一位學識淵博，對內地電子商務及科技產業局勢擁有密切的關注，而且注重分析思考的人。授課中，各行業的資料及例子信手拈來，教學框架清晰，易於吸收，他是一位優秀的導師。除此之外，課堂中的學習氛圍也讓我非常享受，來自於不同學院的上交大同學積極發言，思考，提供不同的角度和新穎的創意，使得課堂變得更加豐富。

Pukyong National University 2019 International Summer School, South Korea

ASLAM Hamza Saghir (DSBI, Year 4)

The Summer Abroad Programme at the PKNU ISS was one of the most remarkable experiences I have ever had. 

I have taken the Korean Language course and I believe it turned out to be a successful one since I can now get to read Korean. Also, the students were very hardworking and were willing to always share their experiences of their current lifestyle with the professor. 

During my spare time, I would usually go outside the campus to new places with different groups and discover the real beauty of Busan. I could finally get to observe the city’s lifestyle and the etiquette of the people. 

I would highly recommend our HSUHK students to join this summer program in the coming year and I’m sure it will be a memorable experience!

Feng Chia University 2019 FCU International Summer School, Taiwan

CHENG Tsz Ying (BBA-FA, Year 2)

Being a student in my sophomore year, I chose to spend my summer vacation in participating in the Feng Chia University International Summer School Program. Feng Chia University has a beautiful campus, thus a lot of passionate and professional teachers. The first class we had was about Taiwan drama and throughout the whole program, we went to a total of two field trips to Lukang and YunLin and one bus tour on the three Fridays. We had regular classes every Tuesdays to Thursdays and DIY courses every Mondays. In the DIY courses, we learnt about how to make traditional rice dough figures, do Taiji and Qigong, calligraphy and traditional Chinese knotting.

Throughout this program, not only have I learnt a lot about Taiwanese and Chinese culture , but also different countries’ cultures from friends who come from all over the world, like Indonesia, Mongolia, Australia, Korea etc. Summer holiday well spent!
