Aviation never stopped growing even the pandemic as well as my limitless passion towards the industry. The Bachelor degree jointed organised by HKU SPACE and Swinburne equipped me with practical and theoretical knowhow of the industry. By studying the Bachelor Degree, I have learnt not only the industry fundamentals but the insights from the professionals especially during COVID where unknowns were still in place. The course provides a comprehensive study portfolio to learn and gain knowledge incorporates marketing, operations, project management and researching with accessible resources provided by the university. At Swinburne, I can also meet experienced and qualified tutors with quality teaching manners through lectures and seminars. The tutors are professional and patient in easing our concerns no matter in assignments or projects. Throughout the years at the school, although the schedule is tightly packed, I still find it enjoyable and exciting with mixed-teaching modes under the pandemic times.

The BA programme in advertising and public relations was a transformative experience for me. It sharpened my ability to communicate and helped me see how important these fields are today. The courses were a great mix of real-world skills and challenging ideas. They pushed me to be creative and tackle tough problems. This program gave me what I needed to do well in my job and prepared me for further study.

I could only see better things to come in this promising programme.

I studied the BA (Hons) Marketing in 2018. After graduation, I assisted my mum and sister to established a new British style tea house, the Victorian Rose Tea Room, and took care of all the marketing promotion for the business. It was amazing that I successfully applied the marketing concepts I learnt from the BA (Hons) Marketing which gave me a strong foundation. The marketing campaigns and activities kicked off during the launch period including brand promotion, digital marketing, content marketing and storytelling, etc. had generated opportunities for interviews and features from over 80 media. It effectively boosted up our brand awareness and customer traffic. The marketing knowledge which I learnt from the marketing degree is not just knowledge on paper but they indeed successfully promoted our tea house to lots of Hong Kong people and help us to build up our foothold in the market.

“Building on my previous education on Food Health and Business Management, the degree programme has equipped me with solid and practical knowledge in hospitality management. I learnt a lot from both overseas and local teachers through lectures, class activities and field trips. After graduation, I am very pleased to work in a Michelin-starred French restaurant in an upscale hotel so as to deepen my hospitality knowledge. Since this degree programme is recognized worldwide, I have already planned to pursue a Master degree qualification overseas.”
