“The programme that I am studying in includes both the use of technology and the exploration of English studies. The combination of both fields sounded exciting to me. In my early days of the university life, I found some courses challenging. In spite of this, I took the initiative to seek help from course lecturers. With their kind assistance and through the learning of useful applications during classes, I have made a great leap of mastering various technological skills"

• Students admitted into this programme starting from the 2024/25 cohort are required to visit the Greater Bay Area (GBA) for a short trip (e.g. 1-day or 2-day 1- night trip) in order to complete the Cross-Faculty Core Course. While the GBA trip is heavily subsidised, students are still required to contribute 18% of the estimated cost of the trip ("student contribution"), whereas personal entertainment, meals expenses, travel document fee and personal insurance costs will not be supported. The estimated cost of the GBA trip for students admitted to the 2024/25 cohort is not available yet as it is subject to a variety of factors such as changes to the cost of the GBA trip as a result of inflation, trip duration, traveling expenses, the exchange rate, etc. The exact amount of student contribution is thus not available.
