What is the experience of studying at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University?

First of all, regarding the academic atmosphere, many of my local classmates and students studying in other universities in Hong Kong will argue with me that the academic atmosphere is the worst, probably because PolyU emphasizes practice and student activities, but undergraduate courses should still be very strong in the eyes of mainland students. First of all, the setting of the library, a row of iMac as soon as you enter the door, is nothing. I think the best is the setting of REC Research Carrels. You can study in a translucent cubicle through the ibooking system that comes with the library. The power supply of tables, chairs and lamps here is very comfortable. You can also reserve a group discussion room and a computer equipped with a full set of multimedia equipment through this system, and you can borrow books from any university library in Hong Kong through the library system (this is the same for everyone). The library also has a 24-hour study room for everyone to study at night … To my surprise, no matter what time of the semester, the 24-hour study room is almost full …

Tell me more about the teacher. Perhaps there is another very important reason for people to be deadline fighters day and night. We have a report on a course, which is very detailed, without citing the source, and also points out several grammatical mistakes-the teacher is not a Virgo; Take another example around me. My former roommate studied accounting, and her teacher often said, "The teacher's role is to serve you." Anyone who knows a little about accounting at BTW PolyU should know that the tuition here is above average, and the invited lecturers are all Daniel.

For another example, I was allowed to attend a documentary class on the living conditions of Japanese mixed-race children by my roommate who studied languages. The teacher specially invited several mixed-race people living in different classes in Hong Kong to chat. In the middle, I explained a few words in English to those who didn't understand the language ... The teacher also put the video of each class in the facebook group after class, which was super professional and patient.

On how to get along with and adapt to local classmates, many friends will ask this question every time they return to Hong Kong. I remember when I first started school, I took part in many welcome activities in a daze. Except the one in the college, all the others are churches or church organizations, which inevitably causes some conceptual shocks, but the local students are really enthusiastic. Thanks to them, I didn't feel too embarrassed when I first arrived in Hong Kong. Although PolyU is a university with an active student movement, there have been incidents such as the arrest of its president recently, and there may still be a lot of resistance to the mainland in Hong Kong, there has never been any conflict and discord between Hong Kong students and mainland students. In addition, PolyU, like all universities in Hong Kong, teaches in English. However, there are almost free remedial classes in the school to teach Cantonese, and you can also take various other remedial classes, including violin, calligraphy, makeup, adult first aid, Chinese and Western food, wine tasting and so on. ...

It is said that PolyU has the best student canteen in Hong Kong University. The two main student canteens are Maxim's, and there are all kinds of refreshments and meals from morning till night. There are also four cafes in the library, all of which are very emotional ~ Well, there are two staff canteens and a theater teahouse next to Jiangzhen Theatre, which are a little more expensive than the student canteens, but they taste good. Besides, you can also eat various snacks outside the school overpass, such as grilled fish with hot and sour powder in sugar water and hot pot.
