Feedback from Students - The Hong Kong Polytechnic University

The Achievement 1997-2004
The objective of the Programme is to groom our students to meet the challenges of the workplace.
To capitalise on our strong network with employers, we enter into partnership with companies who
share our commitment in developing the competitiveness of our manpower resources. From our
end, we provide our students with the best academic courses, which are application-oriented, as
well as pre-placement training on workplace skills. Students who participate in this Programme are
of the right attitude and calibre to contribute readily to the Partner Companies and gain most from
the precious placement opportunities.
Since its inception in 1997, the 'Preferred Graduate' Development Programme has received
overwhelming support from both employers and students. Our pool of companies has increased
from 126 in 1997 to 761 this year, covering a broad spectrum of businesses. In the last eight
summers, almost 4,900 students were successfully placed in Hong Kong, Macau, the Mainland,
Taiwan and overseas.
