Nore STOLTE

Even though I joined the University, first and foremost, to do research, the courses and workshops offered have helped me become a well-rounded scientist. The HK PhD Fellowship has relieved my financial worries and provided funds for me to travel to conferences, summer schools and workshops. In addition, it has given me a network of students working in an array of fields very different from my own.

HKUST gathers people of different disciplines together on a cozy and beautiful campus, and strongly encourages collaboration among them. Within Hong Kong, the community of universities provides an exciting academic environment with many opportunities. In part because of this, and also because of the diversity of cultures, people and landscapes, Hong Kong is a fantastic place to live and work in.
