PolyU Summer Institute

Visiting PolyU gave me the opportunity to visit Asia for the first time, which, as a kid from Greece, I found extraordinarily different and fascinating. I met locals who taught me basic Cantonese phrases, and ate Chinese food for five days straight. The program itself was also productive, especially the 3D printing activity, which I loved. All in all, it is safe to say that this was a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and I am looking forward to exploring Asia further in the future.

The PolyU residential camp was an amazing opportunity to experience authentic university life and gain insights into our chosen industry. Though it lasted only a few days, it was more than just a camp—it was about bonding with passionate students from around the world, becoming independent, and taking responsibility for our futures. Special thanks to my group leaders and teammates for making this summer remarkable! 

I would say that this residential camp was really fun and well-organised, and it gave me valuable experiences. I was able to understand and experience life as a university student by living in student hall and socialising with my roommates and others. Regarding the activities, they were very informative, especially the mini lectures, which were impressively inspiring. Additionally, I have realised that I have more career options than I previously thought.

The PolyU residential trip certainly left me with a fascinating experience of immersive campus life. From the unfamiliarity of traveling alone to Hong Kong on the first day, to the friendships I made with international participants, the summer institute was far beyond my greatest expectations. Thank you, PolyU, for providing me with such a platform to play, learn, and meet new people. 

All the workshops and activities were very fun and engaging. I met many new friends from all over the world, and I gained a much deeper understanding of the field I want to study in the future!

This PolyU Summer Institute was the most memorable event of my summer! I have always been interested in this university, so this five-day experience was worth everything. It was a great opportunity to bond with the people in my Design and SFT group. I made many new friends, learned more about fashion and dressmaking, and explored the large campus.

It provides a deep understanding of what the facilities and the Bachelor of Science program will be like. I really enjoy all the activities, as they allow me to learn more about my career pathways and gain insight into my future career in radiotherapy.
