When I was still in secondary school, my favorite subject was Chemistry, especially the part focusing on chemical kinetics and equilibrium. I believe that my knowledge in that perspective can be applied to improve our living quality in the future. With that passion and enthusiasm, I finally decided to choose chemical engineering offered by HKUST. Since I got into HKUST, the ranking of HKUST rises from 2nd to the 1st in Asia this year (QS Asian University Rankings 2011). I am really proud of being a HKUST student.

To promote how great HKUST is, I chose to be a student ambassador (SA) in the School of Engineering (SENG). During the journey, I have joined hands with other SAs to organize a variety of functions such as Engineering Get2Gather and helped out in a range of activities like the Summer Institute and English Schools Foundation teachers’ professional development program. SENG provides students a wealth of opportunities like exchange programs and internships for personal development and equips students with different kind of soft skills which are extremely useful for future career.
