HKU Information Day for Undergraduate Admissions 2023

The annual HKU Information Day for Undergraduate Admissions was held on 28 October to introduce HKU’s programmes to prospective students, including nursing programmes. Dr Veronica Lam Suk-fun and Dr Polly Li Wai-chi, Programme Director and Associate Programme Director respectively, gave two talks that were fully attended, and an additional session was organised due to overwhelming support. Professor Chak-sing Lau, Dean of Medicine, also showed his support by attending our admissions session.

The talks covered details about our nursing programmes, such as Life Enrichment learning, clinical practicum, career prospects of the Bachelor of Nursing (full-time) programme (JS6468) and the Bachelor of Nursing (full-time) Advanced Leadership Track programme (JS6418), and campus life for students. Nursing students were also on hand to share their experiences.

Participants also had a chance to visit the simulated wards, observe demonstrations of different nursing skills and experience different nursing techniques first-hand, to help them understand clinical nursing applications and practices. The School also exhibited a variety of nursing research and community applications to show the broad contributions of nursing and its impact on public health education.
