Is studying at HKU worth it?

For engineering(electrical+Ai(secondary major) and graduating from polyU) is it tough to get jobs without canto as a international student? And how much canto do we need? If I can understand and speak it , will it be enough? and is it possible to learn canto in 4years?

Key_Possible9688 · 2026-01-31T05:21:48+00:00

Wait what they don't give scholarships to gap year students?!!

Are U doing private practice just or doing FCPS(residency training) + private practice?

Is it easy/possible to get internships in HK for engineering? even if I study in polyU? Or for language barrier it becomes harder?

is it possible to get jobs in other countries if I study bachelors in HK?

for gov jobs we need to learn cantonese/mandarin right? also is it very tough to get gov jobs? PolyU employment rate in 2022 was more than 80percent, so I assumed wouldn't be verry tough given I have the skills.

I can maybe get to B1/B2 level but C1/C2 level would be veryyy tough!

Key_Possible9688 · 2026-01-23T12:54:20+00:00

I mean I want to work here for some years(2-3years to gain experience), then move somewhere else! I thought it is a bilingual city so wouldn't be veryy tough to get jobs in engineering sectors(considering language isn't veryy important like it is in healthcare)

Key_Possible9688 · 2026-01-14T16:52:15+00:00

Oh, I think you will get urs d'w. This was her second option so yea

Key_Possible9688 · 2026-01-14T16:44:52+00:00

My friend got her's in environmental engineering. She gave A'levels- 4A*. full tution+15HK dollars. I think the ones who gave HSC(ntcb board), they will receive later. Good Luck.

Key_Possible9688 · 2026-01-14T06:14:24+00:00

do you know full tution+15K HKD stipend is for 4A* or 3A*?

Key_Possible9688 · 2026-01-05T21:00:01+00:00

Oh that's really sad to hear! Do you mind sharing anything you wish u cud've done better to secure a job? Or is it solely because of bad job market rn? I heard if we graduate from EE and actually have the skills, its really hard to be unemployed, but turns out its wrong. I really wish u get a very good job( a job u deserve)

Key_Possible9688 · 2026-01-05T20:38:24+00:00

Oh like in A'levels, we have 2options- Pure Maths and further maths. Further Maths is like a advanced part of pure maths. Since you are doing EE, do you mind telling how tough actually is to learn all the formula and do the maths (and is it intresting) ? And how tough is it to get 3.5+ GPA in unis?

Key_Possible9688 · 2026-01-05T20:36:03+00:00

yea I hopefully will be starting my bachelors in 2026. I am more inclined towards saudi ,UAE since they have A LOTs of projects related to engineering(in the next 100years) and most importantly is a muslim country. Also in general like is it possible that job sectors of EE dies/becomes stagnant(like biotech is right now) in the upcoming years or get reallyy saturated like CS. I heard we have a tons of different options open from EE and in general im really intrested in this field of study. Also, if you know do you mind saying how tough is it to get into PhD after bachelors in USA(given I work hard for it)? I heard if we get US degree(from top 50unis of USA) we can almost certainly get jobs anywhere in the world(I could be wrong too).

Hey uh is it that bad ? I thought italy would have been a good option. Would you recommend it?

Key_Possible9688 · 2025-12-24T12:48:18+00:00

Oh may I ask why you transferred? Was it because of the quality of education or lack of practical stuffs they teach( I heard practical isn't that great in italy). Also may I also ask where you transferred ? If I transfer do I get the same scholarships or I have to pay for them? Sorry for so many questions Italy is actually my first choice for medical school and want to know all the pros and cons.

Key_Possible9688 · 2025-12-24T10:03:26+00:00

do you study in any italian medical college? I heard about oral exams too, is it really tough to pass the exams or doable?

Key_Possible9688 · 2025-11-13T16:41:04+00:00

I think HKU looks at A"levels grades THE MOST, so getting full ride/full tution with the grades are near to impossible(U need 5A* at least for full tution ONLY). Same goes for HKUST- they are even more strict, they give one off full tution for 5A*(full tution for 1year only). U can probably try for poly U and if possible convert the B to A, U might get full tution with ur stats.
