“Exchanging to the University of St. Gallen was definitely one of the most unforgettable experiences in my life. Talking about academic work, students work very hard there and the learning curve is very steep. I was always inspired during the discussions with them.

Apart from studying, travelling is another thing you must do during exchange. Switzerland is one of the best places in the world, with nice and friendly people and astonishing sceneries. It is a country where you can truly embrace the beauty of nature. It is also located at the center of Europe, which allows you to travel to other countries at low cost. The culture and flexibility of QFIN has provided me a wonderful exchange experience, and made me more prepared for all the upcoming challenges and opportunities. Grasp the chance, explore and enjoy!”

"“Work hard play hard”—there is no better words to describe UPenn. It offers you an unparalleled global exposure. The undergraduate population includes students from well over 100 countries. With this diversity and professors’ exceptional emphasis on students’ participation, I was constantly inspired by a wide range of perspectives. Students work very hard here. It is normal that computer labs are fully occupied at 3:30 am. At the same time, UPenn is “The Social Ivy”. The campus has an established party culture. One prime example is ”Spring Fling”. Students will party and drink non-stop for two or three days. In short, my trip was intellectually fruitful and relaxing. What more could you ask for?”

“Exchange in University of British Columbia was an unforgettable experience. Located near Wreck Beach and with countless exquisite gardens across the whole campus, UBC is one of the most beautiful universities in the world: you can sit in the garden peacefully and enjoy the wonderful opera presented by students, or you can lie on the beach at dusk to watch the magnificent sunset.

During exchange, I got to know people from different countries, and together with these friends, we studied late into night; we held sweet parties to celebrate each other’s birthdays, and we travelled to different places in Canada and USA to experience the first time skiing ever in my life, to see the glacial ice, and to take the helicopter flying over the Grand Canyon. Exchange can always give you surprises, so grasp the chance to study abroad and explore the outside world!”

“I am privileged to have gone to the UK and experienced international exposure. The whole three months I spent at Aberdeen University was one of the best experiences I have had – I was exposed to different cultural backgrounds, perspectives, and teaching methods compared to Hong Kong. Also, I was in a community and organization that enabled me to build a network across the world.

In class, we implemented different methods through case studies and group discussions using real-industry problems. I got the opportunity to do group projects with another four international students from France, Finland, Italy, and Hungary – through this group project; I learned different perspectives that I couldn’t experience elsewhere. I enjoyed the time working with those from diverse backgrounds.

Besides, I went to different cities/countries with friends to explore the UK and European countries during the weekends. What an incredible experience which I won’t forget.”
