Semester Exchange at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology
Information on Hong Kong University of Science and Technology.
It is strongly recommended for students interested in this program to register for ENGR 29701 – Global Engineering Orientation (1 cr.) in the Fall semester prior to studying abroad. The ENGR 29701 course prepares students in a variety of ways (cultural training, some language training, applications for visa, etc.), which can substantially reduce the burden and stress of preparing to study abroad.
Program Focus
HKUST considers logistics management to be a strength of their program.
Sixth Semester Plan
Students would select a plan of study that fulfills at least 12 cr. of coursework, however have the option of three plans of study:
