What a great day!

In collaboration with St. James' Settlement & Royal Bank of Scotland, HKUST volunteers arranged a university visit for secondary school students approaching the age to consider higher education. Our Associate Director from Undergraduate Recruitment and Admissions Office, Ms. Betty Law, shared with the participants about her views on education and the meaning and value of university study. By means of a motivational talk followed by a university tour, this event aimed to help students better understand why people spend time and money to attend university, and what university life is like.
