Advantages and disadvantages of studying in Hong Kong

Hong Kong faces the South China Sea, adjacent to the continental shelf, with a vast ocean and many islands. Many mainland parents choose Hong Kong if they don't want their children to study too far. What are the advantages and disadvantages of studying in Hong Kong? Let's stay abroad and have a look!

Advantages of studying in Hong Kong

Let's talk about education first. Hong Kong is a typical western education. Its educational philosophy, post arrangement and teaching methods are basically consistent with those of western universities. Therefore, all universities in Hong Kong teach in English. On campus, English is a common language, and even many teachers can't speak Chinese, so in daily communication, English level is also improving imperceptibly. Language is not a problem when you go to a foreign company or go abroad for further study after graduation;

Compared with the translation textbooks of domestic universities, the direct use of English textbooks greatly avoids the mistakes caused by translation. Students' understanding of knowledge is more accurate;

Demonstration is a common task. Students need to go on stage in the form of individuals or groups to explain specific topics to all students. This exhibition not only consolidates knowledge, but also exercises students' public speaking and teamwork skills. These are also important reference points for lecturers to evaluate presentation;

All students' performance in school will be included in the final evaluation criteria. For example, the attendance rate of each class, the timely delivery of homework, even your activity in class and your interaction with lecturers will all affect the final score of this course. And often the final exam only accounts for 30%-50% of the total GPA. Therefore, the achievements of universities in Hong Kong are more valuable and objectively reflect individual abilities.

Compared with mainland universities, Hong Kong universities, which are at the forefront of foreign countries, have many opportunities to go abroad for exchange and internship, and most of them are not difficult to apply. The school also encourages students to exchange and provides various scholarships to exchange students. I believe that this experience abroad will greatly enrich your college life;

The characteristic of western education is to attach importance to "human" education. This is also reflected in the University of Hong Kong. The feedback required by the lecturer is not limited to the knowledge in the textbook;

In addition to education in Hong Kong, the unique charm of Hong Kong itself also attracts the attention of the outside world. Since the Hong Kong government promulgated the seven-year permanent residence policy, more and more people have come to Hong Kong to pursue their dreams. Needless to say, the advantages of Hong Kong permanent residents are good welfare and perfect medical care. Therefore, studying in Hong Kong is a good choice. You can become a permanent resident after living in Hong Kong for seven years. In addition, the Hong Kong government will give students with bachelor's degrees or above 65,438+0 years to find jobs after graduation (during which they can stay in Hong Kong without being expelled). Therefore, if you study in Hong Kong, it is very easy to obtain permanent residency.

2. Disadvantages of studying in Hong Kong

There is no denying that the cost of studying abroad is definitely higher than that of studying in universities in China, but the cost-effectiveness of studying in Hong Kong will definitely make you value for money. Compared with studying in Europe and America, studying in Hong Kong can be said to save more than half, with high-quality educational resources, convenient transportation, high-value academic certificates and the same medical services as Hong Kong residents. I really can't think of a more cost-effective study abroad than Hong Kong.

Studying abroad requires a high degree of self-care, and many things need to be taken care of without family members. No one will urge and supervise you. If you miss it, no one will blame you, because the consequences will be borne by yourself! But it's not the same as going to college in China. How many people stay in the local area to study, most of them will leave their parents to study in other cities, facing the problem of independence and self-care, while studying abroad is actually just a place with more development prospects.

Worried about the language barrier? Worried about the weather and diet? In my opinion, this is the least worrying and the easiest to adapt to. The language is Chinese, and reading and chatting is never a problem. The most common thing around is that Guangdong sister paper likes spicy hot pot, and Northeast Gang likes Guangdong refreshments. Food culture in different places has become a trend of modern people.

Perhaps what everyone is most worried about is discrimination. Isn't there a problem of going overseas? In fact, 99% of the people in Hong Kong are very friendly, because Hong Kong itself is an immigrant area and a tourist city, and foreigners are very common in Hong Kong. Hong Kong people may have different political inclinations and living habits from ours, but this does not prevent us from working together to make a perfect project in Qi Xin, helping us when we need it, and following them to eat delicious food and explore. Professors and classmates are very good, they are excellent, have a good habit of helping others, and consider the details of others.
