In general, Poly is a middle-of-the-road university. Some programs, such as the prestigious wine management program, are very good, but engineering graduates are relatively weak.

If you want to come to Poly to challenge your academic ability, you are likely to be disappointed. Mathematics for engineering majors is generally relatively difficult, and it is regarded as a degenerate version of high mathematics in the Mainland, Featured alumni Hong Kong with a lot of content cut, not in-depth study, and more emphasis on application than theory. For example, Fourier transform almost never involves calculus, and line substitution takes 7 weeks to complete. It is not enough to take the contents of engineering schools to take the GRE math exam. It is precisely for this reason that Poly Institute of Technology will achieve a good GPA level as long as it makes a little effort, at least it has an absolute advantage in the application of graduate students.

The degree of cohesion between courses is not high, and some courses are easy to repeat. College teachers are generally fluent in English, belonging to the traditional Hong Kong English, they do not know what to say in class. However, teachers are generally serious (with a few exceptions) . Although not as serious as the six or seven teaching assistants in the US or HKU, most professors are willing to sacrifice their personal time to answer questions that do not make sense in class.

There are many exchange opportunities, especially in Singapore and Canada. The quality is good and the exchange schools are subsidized.

Although the development of food, clothing, housing and transportation is not as good as that of foreign research undergraduates, it is definitely a blow to domestic undergraduate universities. At such a moderate level of product price and quality, you can eat delicious food from all over the world, and you can also use your leisure time to return to mainland China. Hong Kong‘s outlying islands, country parks can also be a good place to shoot movies, leisure, camping, travel. For those who love to travel and work, visa management is relatively easy to handle, and tickets are generally available and cost-effective, with routes all over the world.

Culturally, this is all about mutual warmth between groups. Although fluent Cantonese may be useful to both sides, the city is definitely unfriendly to mainlanders. Geographical discrimination is more serious, and not being able to speak Cantonese may be more discriminated against. Local students are generally sloppy and have poor grades. Although they can laugh together in class, they are not proficient in Cantonese and will not integrate into each other's cultural circles.

If you are strict with yourself, self-taught, and ready to apply for graduate school, then Paulie may be perfect for you. If you're naturally lazy and can't learn effectively on your own, Paulie will corrupt you even more.

Above, there are both praise and criticism, I hope it will help you.
