Q & A

現今數學的榮譽學士包括未能提及的STEM的教學元素嗎？

我想請問如果我拿到數學學士以后，發現自己可以進修或者有不適合的地方。第一種情況，我是否如我朋友所說要到其他院校如HKU等獲取更多的qualifications?因為HKU的課程會深度會提高，這样會否有指引可以提供?而第二種情況，我想知道如果未能路向不合適，在選擇其他學科修讀上如科學研究會否有限制，還是要再retake或者工種上是如何安排?謝謝!

DSE 最低入學分數和入學中位數?

Q & A

畢業時入職老師行業的競爭力會較其他院校高還是低?

請問我們會有到SEN學校實習的機會嗎？

若果我沒有科學有關的選修科物理化學會影響我獲得面試的機會嗎？

經 JUPUS 收生人數？
