Q. What are the admission requirements?
Q. What is the difference between department-based admission and school-based admission?
A. In department-based admission, students are admitted to the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering directly. Students will be able to take civil engineering courses from Year 1. School-based admission, on the other hand, means that students are admitted to the School of Engineering. These students will take the common core curriculum, engineering introduction courses and fundamentals in Year 1, to help them explore their interest and decide on their study path. Upon completion of the first year, students will select their major departments within the School of Engineering.
Q. Will there be any interview? When?
A. Yes. Students who show strong interest in civil engineering over other choices (i.e. putting us as a Band A choice in JUPAS) and reach our academic requirement would likely get an interview opportunity. Interview sessions are usually held in November and May.
Q. If my HKDSE results do not meet the admission requirements, and I retake the exam in the next year, do I still have the chance for admission?
A. Yes, students can sit for HKDSE again and reapply with their new results.
