2011 Graduate with BSc (Hons) in Surveying2010 The Most Outstanding PolyU Student2009 Higher Diploma in Building Technology and Management (Surveying)

Studying for a BSc (Hons) in Surveying of PolyU was great fun and intellectually challenging. Now working as part of a professional cost planning team and facing a substantial volume of designs waiting to be translated into various cost plans within deadlines, I very much appreciate what the Department of Building and Real Estate (BRE) offered me. Taught by highly experienced and approachable academic staff, at BRE I was not only equipped with a wide range of professional construction knowledge, but also gained practical skills such as critical analysis, presentation and communication skills, and global and business awareness. These skills are equally useful in my work. The Mentorship Scheme also laid a solid foundation for me to build strong industry networking, which has proved to be invaluable in my career since graduation. The decision to spend my undergraduate years at BRE was the wisest choice I have ever made.

Choosing the BSc (Hons) in Surveying is the best decision I have made in my life so far.

Surveying is a discipline that conflates construction technology, economics, finance and land administration as well as law; these skills are subsequently applied to the real estate market. The interdisciplinary training provided by BRE has got me where I am today. The courses offered by the department are genuinely practical yet academic enough to lead easily into further studies. I went on to study for an MPhil degree with the University of Cambridge immediately after my undergraduate degree. Moreover, I was also blessed by the vast variety of industry and international connections that PolyU and BRE have. Using these, I had the chance to explore the Hong Kong, Guangzhou and London real estate markets through a series of internships. The unfailing guidance and generous support I have received from the department are things I was not likely to find elsewhere.

BRE has empowered its graduates to become surveyors of integrity and professionalism. We are equipped to take on not only a specialist role in real estate markets but also a generalist role in many other disciplines, which is what I have decided to do. I am excited that I will shortly be taking up a new role with HSBC Private Banking as a Management Associate. While there, I will explore the realm of wealth and asset management and apply the soft skills and knowledge acquired from my surveying degree. Although I will be entering a completely new environment, I still feel secure and confident that my four years at PolyU have been more than well spent and have adequately prepared me for any challenges ahead.

I am heartily thankful to have read for the Surveying degree with PolyU. A successful programme enables its graduates to thrive, not only in the specific discipline they study, but also in society at large. I could never have imagined how far the BSc (Hons) Surveying degree would take me in my career. BRE was a platform that helped me unleash my potential. I truly look forward to seeing one day what I can give back to my Alma Mater.
