I think I had made the right choice to enrol the Master in Public Administration of UMT last year. I recall that the reason for studying a master degree in management relates to my career development. I am a clinical staff of a public hospital and I have been involving in management duties for over 10 years. Early last year when my boss was planning my career, he reviewed my academic qualification. As a clinical staff, I always thought that I had already attained the necessary qualification because I had already possessed a M Phil degree and a PHD.

I joined the UMT and studied this course which provided me with everything I needed. It equipped me with profound knowledge in the management field, both in theory and in practice. It widen my horizon and helped me develop my potential and fully utilize my talent. I can now apply my newly attained knowledge to the daily operation in a public organisation. Of course, it fit my personal schedule very well.

"After achieving my Bachelor’s Degree at UMT, I felt that studying at UMT was convenient and suitable for me, being a full time worker, because UMT has provided a flexible learning style of on-line learning. The student can choose the completion time according to your availability."

Subsequently, I continued my MBA program at UMT. It took more than a year to complete the designated courses. In this time period, I have met lots of new classmates who have all become my good friends.

All the 12 officers say they enjoy lifelong learning because they can prepare themselves for the dynamic changes in the law enforcement work in Hong Kong.

They also have had an opportunity to share their experiences and knowledge with fellow students from different trades.
