The new episode of Career Trek for MSc students continues. After traveling to various reputable companies in Shanghai in October 2023, a group of 34 MSc students arrived in Shenzhen, one of the largest and most dynamic tech hubs in China and the globe, to participate in an intensive one-day tour on January 12, 2024, visiting China Merchants Bank, Lenovo, and Tencent.

It is a prestigious opportunity for our students to learn about these companies’ values and cultures, working environments, and day-to-day operations. The company representatives and our HKUST alumni shared their career journey, campus recruitment process, graduate programs, and application timeline. They were not only offered a business tour, but also showcased world-changing technologies that power and empower the whole ecosystem to create a more inclusive, trustworthy, and sustainable society for everyone.

From Shanghai to Shenzhen, we delved deep into the heart of innovation and futuristic development. Our signature career treks are a career exploration initiative that allows students to travel to various cities to gain insight into career fields of interest, unveil a world of possibilities, and inspire life perspectives. We are looking forward to unlocking more cities and company partners in the future.
