CURRENT INTERNS' TEStimonial
Wang Shujing
Master of Arts in the field of Creative Communications, Year 1
My internship at HKU CHM has been a very meaningful experience. I had the chance to support different creative and research-related projects, and to turn topics and ideas into content that can be shared with a wider audience. Through interviews and research support, I was also able to meet and talk with people from different backgrounds. This experience helped me better understand how research, creativity, and communication can work together in practice.
FARRUKH AKHMEDOV
Bachelor of Business Administration (Business Analytics), Year 2
HKU CHM is a wonderful place to commence your career, as an intern gets exposed to both theoretical and practical parts of the job. The friendly and professional environment makes the adaptation period pass with ease. I believe, it is crucial for a student-intern to feel included in the team in order to gain confidence to work, and that is something HKU CHM has provided me.

Participating in HKU CHM's internship has opened many opportunities for my personal and professional development. It has allowed me to strengthen my interpersonal skills and expand my network. Moreover, working within the department has broadened my horizons beyond what I learn in university courses, creating a meaningful bridge between academic knowledge and real-world industry experience.
