Chan Suk On
Information Systems
IS Departmental Internship Programme

This summer internship provides the opportunities for me to learn the things that I can't learn from the lessons. And it also gives me a chance to work with a group of people to do a large project together. The self-learning experience is very valuable and all the things that I learnt are still very useful in my future. It is a priceless experience for me in my university life.


Cheung Wing Sze, Iris
Information Systems
Dairy Farm Company

After these 12 weeks, I have gained a lot, especially the real working experience as a full time employee. By handling the job, I have learnt different new knowledge and skills, both technical and interpersonal.

Moreover, I have found that the most valuable learning experience in my internship is the good communication skills. Working in a team or even company, technical experience is not the most important thing, but the personal attitudes.


Ching Ka Lun, Alan

Hilti ( Hong Kong)

After having my internship in Hilti for about 3 months, I have learnt much throughout this period. Not only the product knowledge and company structure, but also different skills, project experience and more importantly, my personal development and career path!


LAI Sze Wan

I have gained valuable experience in WWF Hong Kong. I have learnt leadership skills from my communication manager, the way to treat subordinates, to build good team atmosphere and encourage each other.


Chan Man Yi, Mandy

I broadened my horizons and gained many experiences after this internship. I thought that this internship was my turning point in my life and I would apply all the knowledge and skills in the future in order to be successful.


Leung Kai Yin
Information Systems
Strategic Public Relations Group

In these three months, it seems that I was taking two courses, one is accounting course and the other course is Information Systems used in Accounting.

Without having the practice, I will only know the accounting standards and concepts instead of understanding the accounting standards and concepts. Now, I would move my accounting knowledge from “Data” (accounting concepts in book without understanding and manipulating, not useful) to “Information” (manipulated and useful).


Lau Ka Ling
Management
Western Harbour Tunnel Company Limited

To learn a real business operation, practice in a diverse job tasks, conduct reflection and set the career goals, I take a lot from this internship in WHTCL. Thank you for Faculty of Business and WHTCL providing me the valuable experience, I will work hard on my future career and become a HR professional.


Ng Wan Sze, Gloria
Information Systems
The Wing On Department Stores (H.K.) Ltd.

During the internship, I have learned a lot and gained a lot of experience. I think the most valuable learning experience is that I can have the chance to go through different departments and different positions in one internship period. In overall, I think these experience had made me knew more about the real business world and understood that how real business is different to the theory learned in academic.
