Events

The HKU Information Day for Undergraduate Admissions on 29 October was a triumph. This year, the physical format was resumed, so many parents and students took the opportunity to come to the School campus in person. Many of the visitors wanted to learn about our nursing curriculum, as well as the environment and equipment that the new campus can offer. Hence, the number of attendance reached a record high.

Through admission consultation and nursing student sharing, students learned about the courses, teaching features, clinical practicum, and career prospects of the Bachelor of Nursing (full-time) programme (JS6468) and the Bachelor of Nursing (full-time) Advanced Leadership Track programme (JS6418), as well as the campus life of HKU students, etc. There was also a variety of nursing research and community applications for display so participants could understand the breadth of nursing and its education and impact on public health.

There were also a wide array of nursing skills demonstrations. Parents and students visited the simulated wards, observed the simulation learning of caring for people of different genders or ages, and tried to interact with the robot by questioning and diagnosing problems. They also tried to practice different nursing skills.

Participants were impressed with the enthusiasm and dedication demonstrated by the School’s students and staff members.  The success of such event resulted from the cohesive sense of belonging and the concerted effort of staff and students.
