We extended a warm welcome to our Summer Incoming Exchange Students from around the world. This year, we were delighted to have 73 students and teachers from 12 institutions worldwide, including the University of Sydney, Central South University, Ningxia Medical University, Peking Union Medical College, Zunyi Medical University, Trinity College Dublin, the National University of Singapore, EWHA Women's University, Jeju National University, National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University, Mahidol University and HKU. Participants had an opportunity to engage in cultural exchange, explore the Hong Kong community and experience university life at HKU.
During the two-week exchange programme, the students expanded their social networks through the East-Meets-West Luncheon and gained valuable insights into the local community through community experiential learning, district visits, community visits and clinical visits. These experiences provided them with a deeper understanding of Hong Kong's community services, healthcare system and hospital environment.
The students also had an opportunity to immerse themselves in HKU life by visiting our Simulation Centre, School of Chinese Medicine and Experiential Learning of Treatment Modality.
The programme concluded with participants sharing insights into their own countries' healthcare systems and reflecting on their experiences during the two-week programme.
