As the first batch of Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education (DSE) examination schools in the Mainland, in order to help students clarify their goals for further studies and broaden their knowledge of Hong Kong's higher education institutions, on 21 October 2023, under the coordination of the Hong Kong Office of ASJ, secondary school students from ASJ travelled to Hong Kong to take part in the information days of The Chinese University of Hong Kong and The Hong Kong Polytechnic University to deepen their understanding of the requirements for admission to prestigious universities in Hong Kong through Hands-on experience of visiting the campus, attending lectures, counselling and exchanging views, etc., to deepen their understanding of admission to prestigious universities in Hong Kong and the requirements of various disciplines.
On the day of the Joint Visit Of ASJ To HK Universities, ASJ students firstly visited the campus environment and dormitory facilities of The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) under the guidance of Professor Wong Heung-sang, Dean of the Joint School of CUHK . ASJ students benefited a lot from Prof Wang's in-depth explanation and detailed answers.
Professor Wong Heung-sang obtained his Bachelor of Education (Hons) from the University of Liverpool in 1987, and his Master of Science in Sport Science and Doctor of Philosophy in Exercise Physiology from the University of Louvre in 1989 and 1996, both on government and Commonwealth scholarships. He joined CUHK immediately after completing his PhD and is currently a Professor in the Department of Sport and Exercise Science, Associate Dean of the United College and Director of the Hong Kong Institute of Education, CUHK.
Subsequently, ASJ students also attended a series of lectures on "AI Engineering" and "Applied Social Sciences" at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University to experience the class format and special programmes of renowned universities in Hong Kong. During the visits to the two colleges, the lead teachers of the colleges and the teachers and students from the university's study stalls gave the students a detailed introduction of the admission requirements, programme features, course contents and the school faculties, which enabled the ASJ students to have a more comprehensive knowledge of The Chinese University of Hong Kong and The Hong Kong Polytechnic University.
From campus visits to exchanges with teachers and students, ASJ students demonstrated their respect for the university and their positive attitude towards seeking knowledge. They actively asked questions, explored on their own initiative, learned about the information about the school's study programmes and the admission qualifications, and gained knowledge of and expectations for their future university life through the Joint Visit Of ASJ To HK Universities.

Student Lee:
This study tour was my first university tour journey, I visited the campus and participated in diverse activities. At the Hong Kong Polytechnic, I sat in on a lecture of the Electronic Engineering (AI) programme and learnt about some of the uses and prospects of electronic engineering. At the Chinese University of Hong Kong, I visited the hostel, the kitchen, the study room, etc., and then I went to the promotion stalls to learn more about the subjects and majors.
I was very rewarded by this trip. Not only did I learn about the majors of the top schools in Hong Kong, but I also learnt about the science majors, which will pave the way for me to choose a major in the future, and I also learnt about the faculty and the hotness of the majors in the school. I also visited various parts of the school, as the school environment will also be an important aspect in my future choice of school. Although the tour was a bit tiring, it was worth it as I got a better understanding of my future studies and a clearer picture of my goals.
