As a Ghanaian student who has studied many years in my home country and in South Korea, I find Hong Kong uniquely amazing with stunning views. Hong Kong is an intriguing blend of the natural and anthropogenic where attractive seascapes complement verdant mountains, antiquated temples on beautiful islands contrast the vibrant skyscraper-studded city with little opportunity to miss the English language due to the large number of foreigners and Hong Kong's history.
Thanks to HKUST, I do not have to move beyond the boundaries of campus to enjoy all those amazing vistas. Studying Chemical engineering here at HKUST has offered me the opportunity of working with some of the best Professors and astute students in the world. It is a positive environment where not only is one trained with practical research and academic skills, but also in leadership and entrepreneurship. I count HKUST as one of the best decisions I have ever made.
