City University of Hong Kong- Engineering

jhaozz. — Fri, 17 Apr 2015 16:34:34 +0800

Hi guys,
Seriously in need of your advices on my option now.
I just got the admission into City Uni of HK in Civil Engineering.
The admission package comes with a full tuition fee scholarship (3years).
Do you recommend to go?

Here are my few concerns:
1. Apparently, City Uni is not as prestigious as HKU & HKUST. Is the gap in terms of teachings quality and environment between the top notch uni and city uni obvious?

2. My offer is with advance standing which only requires 3 years to complete. However, I understand that in order to practice in Malaysia as a professional engineer we need at least 4 years of undergraduate studies. Well, is there any exemption? Or probably taking an external test to comply with the requirement?

Appreciate for every kind advice here. Thanks.

Hi guys,
Have a dilemma here on application to the bank scholarship as being an engineering applicant.
Wonder what should I reply when the interviewer ask on how can I contribute to the bank after their sponsorship?
How relevant my course could be to the bank corporation?
I will be applying on civil engineering anyway, any senior or expert here to enlighten me please?
Thanks.

Civil Engineering : INTI vs UTAR

Hi guys,

Was having a dilemma on choosing INTI or UTAR in Bachelor of Civil Engineering.
Was told that UTAR has a better reputation and career prospect in Engineering field although it does not provide a conducive environment to train a better me (majority speaks mandarin).
Ignore Monash and Nottingham anyway as I cant afford to go there.
Which to go? Seriously in need of opinions. Thanks for the guidance if you did.
