They were all talking about business and engineering. 40 under 40 awardI'm going to answer a scientific question, and while no one might pay attention to science... It's really ironic that science in polytechnic universities has been marginalized.

The respondents discussed in detail the long-standing problems of PolyU, Gen. T Listsome of which were as follows:

Rigid professional course selection system

Other specialized courses above Level 2 (at least half of level 1) are almost impossible to attend. Design talent awardFor example, in the computer department, you do not open a course, even if there are places for students from other departments, even if this course has no requirements for preparatory courses, even if this course is only the foundation of the foundation, which almost locks the courses you can choose in specialized courses + minor courses + some extremely low-level courses.

I'm totally stuck changing majors

Choose a good professional students must be four years, and now come in and want to change professional development is impossible!

The grading system is not transparent enough

The school's final exam results will not be made public. Some teachers are not even willing to disclose the results of their regular minor exams, so they don't even know how they got C's in some classes

Lesson comparison water

Unlike job-oriented majors such as engineering and business, the application of research science is very silly. Many courses are not as deep and wide as the ordinary 985 in the mainland. The lack of a solid theoretical foundation leads to very few people going directly to science and engineering (of course there are many big names every year). Even if you go straight to science, there are very few elite schools. Unlike business, few people come out of science to work directly, so most people are applying for a master's degree. Don't come here if you want to be an academic. As far as applying for a master's degree is concerned, the mainland students of science and engineering in Poly are about 985 of the middle grades in the mainland.

The corresponding advantage I can experience might be

Can enter the laboratory earlier

The laboratories in Hong Kong are not the big ones on the mainland. The lab here is small. It is even possible to enter the lab without relevant foundation in the first year, and the teacher will take the time to discuss the problem with you.

International opportunities abound

As mentioned by other respondents, PolyU has many opportunities for foreign exchanges, such as one semester of information exchange and summer study abroad, and the next department will have the opportunity to go to Harvard Summer study every year (except this year's epidemic). The exchange schools are all very good, which gives our students more opportunities to be exposed to the world's top education and research and international academic and cultural atmosphere

The cultivation of academic language and thought

Although most adults do not like ELC courses, they have to admit that there are three or four ELCs that have built a solid sense of scientific thinking and language. Laboratory reports and other articles strictly require citations and scientific language, which many mainland universities do not. To some extent, it also cultivates students' good study habits

There are many other answers in life, and I'll fill in some when I get the chance.

scientific question，at least half of level 1
