PolyU - Opening Minds, Shaping the Future
The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) is 7th on the QS Top 50 under 50 2019 list. It is an ambitious and diverse institution recognised worldwide for its academic reputation, student-to-faculty ratio, research citations, employer reputation and international student ratio.
PolyU courses meet student expectations, providing an all-round exposure to them. International exchange programmes and research projects are key part of course curricula. A range of projects are dealt with at PolyU, including some ‘star projects’ in green biodiesel production, rehabilitation sleeve and fashion design.
PolyU’s research has an impact in various different fields, particularly energy storage, tourism service, tendon degeneration, fibre-optic and nano-coating.
The University has established partnerships over 350 overseas universities/institutions spanning across 50 countries and regions globally. It boasts of its world-class facilities and resources, including the 5-star luxury hotel ‘Hotel ICON’, which is a teaching and learning centre for students studying tourism and hospitality courses. Engineering students can gain hands-on learning at the University’s ‘Industrial Centre’, and design students get to experiment their creativity at the ‘Hong Kong Jockey Club Innovation Tower’.
Students experience an exciting and engaging life in Hong Kong – home to 20% of international students from 30 countries. It is a hub of diverse cultures and languages, and one of the safest cities in the world, i.e., 11th in the world for its safe ambience.
The University is committed to promoting learning and teaching initiatives by using the Teaching Development Grants (TDGs) to support projects either at the faculty/departmental or subject levels. The fundamental objective of the projects is to improve the quality of teaching and learning to achieve student learning outcomes, i.e. all-round development of the PolyU students.
PolyU values good teaching. It has established policies and mechanisms to ensure the quality of staff it recruits, it monitors teaching quality, and recognises and rewards staff appropriately for their accomplishments in teaching. It has also set up an institutional structure for promoting quality teaching, and provides a wide range of staff development programmes and activities to empower staff to continually improve their teaching and, ultimately, their students’ learning.
Innovation, creativity and entrepreneurial spirit are part of the PolyU DNA. Its specially-designed courses include internships and service learning. Every day, students gain the skills and experiences they need to respond, adapt and identify applications for their knowledge in the real world.
PolyU has strong partnerships with industries and universities both internationally and in Hong Kong. These collaborations provide valuable opportunities for academic and cultural exchange, internships and job placements.
Graduates leave PolyU with skills and knowledge required in their chosen fields. This translates to high employment rates - 95.4% of PolyU graduates are employed after studies. Employers value highly the skill set that PolyU students have.
International students are able to stay in Hong Kong after graduation for up to 12 months to look for a job and explore their career options. With so many different industries and sectors, many students find themselves drawn to the prospect of working in the city – or even setting up their own business. Fast becoming a hub of entrepreneurial activity, Hong Kong has the infrastructure in place to offer the support and funding opportunities start-ups need to kick start their ventures.
This faculty’s teaching uses a range of interactive methodologies and well-equipped laboratories to promote active learning that encourages creativity.
