The School of Science has divided the Science Program (JS5100) into two new program choices – Science (Group A) program (JS5102) and Science (Group B) program (JS5103). The two Science programs are designed to cater to the academic needs and aspirations of students. Science (Group A) program is tailor-made for those students who are interested in the fields of Physical Science. Science (Group B) program is more suitable for those students who are interested in the fields of Chemistry and Life Science.

IRE is a pioneer study track tailor-made for students with particular interest in pursuing a research career in Science or broadening their exposure to research during their undergraduate studies. It offers students an early opportunity to nurture their research abilities in addition to discipline-specific knowledge in regular Science programs.

The IRE program has a similar curriculum structure as the Science (Group A) and Science (Group B) programs. But students admitted to the IRE program can enjoy a FREE choice among six major programs offered by the School: Biochemistry and Cell Biology, Biotechnology, Chemistry, Mathematics, Ocean Science and Technology, and Physics.

It further distinguishes itself from regular Science programs by providing students with:

Participation in advanced research projects under the supervision of world-class professors

Opportunities to meet with Nobel Laureates and renowned scientists

Individualized Research Guidance and Mentoring from experienced faculty members

Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program (UROP)

Exchange opportunity in renowned foreign universities / research institutes

Summer research internship opportunity in foreign universities and institutions

Scholarship support for overseas learning trips

Science (Group A) program   (JS5101)  is for the students who wish to spend more time exploring their interests in the field of physical science. Upon completion of the first year of study, they can opt to major in one of the major programs for Science (Group A) or the three programs with an Extended Major in Artificial Intelligence.

Students who have developed clear interests in both physical science and artificial intelligence may apply for Science (Group A) with an Extended Major in Artificial Intelligence (JS5181) . They can opt to major in either one of Mathematics/Physics/Ocean Science and Technology with an Extended Major in Artificial Intelligence upon completion of the first year of study.

Extra electives will be used as additional supporting information, such as a tiebreaker.

In admissions score calculation, since the School will consider 5 subjects for IRE, Science ( Group A), Science (Group A) with an Extended Major in Artificial Intelligence, and Science (Group B) Programs, and 6 subjects  for Biotechnology and Business and Mathematics and Economics Programs, additional subject(s) will be considered as a tie‐breaker or a bonus in admissions score calculation. 

Students in the IRE program have free choice among six science major programs. Students in the Science programs who have 1 science subject at Level 5** are guaranteed entry to the corresponding science program.

Students' academic performance is the most important factor for consideration. Students who demonstrate exceptional abilities and performance in other areas will also be considered favorably, e.g. students who are the Hong Kong Team members or medalists of International Physics/Mathematics Olympiad Competitions. 

For JUPAS students, we will consider an applicant’s overall profile and will take the following factors into account:

Subject performance;

Other Experiences and Achievements (OEA);

Additional electives;

Interview performance (if any);

Student Learning Profile (SLP);

A 500 word personal statement;

School Reference Report (academic performance, personal and general abilities)

OEA, SRR, SPN and SLP will be taken into account and will constitute a certain percentage of weighting in the assessment. Achievements under the OEA such as awards obtained in international competitions may be useful. Students having these awards may be considered for granting conditional offers. The University will consider OEA information, mainly for Band A students.

In general, we try to learn more about the applicant as a person e.g. on personality, aspirations, and motivation/suitability for the program applied. A good essay should tell a story and have a clear focus, reveal passion and expose personality, show creativity and independent thinking so that after reading, the reader would form a unique impression about the applicant. 

Band A applicants who are nominated under the SPN scheme will be considered seriously. They may be given bonus points or conditional offers if they meet HKUST and the School of Science's minimum entrance requirements.

We will look at the students' HKDSE results together with other information including their band choice, interview performance, OEA, SRR, SLP to constitute a full picture of the students for assessment.

Students with full HKDSE and another full qualifications (such as IB, SAT, GCEAL) can apply via either the JUPAS or non-JUPAS route, but not both.

Through my study at HKUST, I’ve seen a much bigger world, and grown to be a much richer person intellectually and psychologically. In academic, I joined IRE and learned to be scientifically mature...

Composing a personal statement using personal statement humour is not as easy as in a college essay. You’ve got to focus on the idea and flow of thoughts to be concise and go straight to the point. Besides, consider if you create an HKU personal statement for a postgraduate application or an undergraduate one. This can have a bearing on how you write your documents and what you write in them.

A graduate school personal statement is more challenging to write since HKU officers would expect more from your output compared to what they would expect from an undergraduate statement. It can be difficult for some people, which is what personal statement services are usually for.

Nevertheless, let’s make it easier by following these dos and don’ts when composing your HKU personal statement:

  • Use the allowable number of words and include as much as you can while being concise and direct to the point
  • Showcase your strengths
  • Integrate your personality when composing your HKU personal statement
  • Add significant details and share relevant experiences
  • Show your interest in your chosen HKU program
  • Make sure it shows that you are looking toward the future
  • Do not let HKUST personal statement topics revolve around you (also discuss the school and what it can give you)
  • Never lie and tell only the truth about yourself and what you want from the school
  • Avoid punctuation and grammar errors in your personal statement HKUST
  • Avoid using jargon and street language
  • Don’t boast, and don’t include meaningless content to meet the number of words required for the HKU personal statement
  • Never talk about other universities you may also be considering
  • Don’t start with “I” in every sentence

Part 10: Top Personal Statement tips

Looking for some final tips before you start your first draft? Here are some thoughts that I have picked up from a whole bunch of admissions selectors and other experts over the years.

Part 9: Getting help and support

Want to know how to get the best possible feedback on your statement? There are lots of people around who can help you with your Personal Statement. This part will help you get the very best input, by planning how and when you get feedback from different people.

Part 8: Using ChatGPT

Thinking of using ChatGPT? If you ask Chat GPT to write your statement for you, it will simply make stuff up; a whole statement full of lies. However, engage with it as if it is your counsellor, and it can be extremely helpful. In this part I suggest a couple of really useful prompts, and give some further helpful tips on how to use AI usefully and ethically.

Part 7: Writing a Personal Statement for two subjects

Are you applying for two different subjects? How to write a statement that covers two different courses could be the most asked question in university admissions history, and the answer is not straightforward. There are a number of possible scenarios, and in this part I suggest how to approach these.

Part 6: The power of reflective writing

How do you make sure everything you write really matters to the admissions tutor? You now have lots of content, and a sensible structure for your statement. You know which content you are going to prioritise, and roughly how long each section is going to be. There is just one more area to focus on before you start writing the statement in full, and that’s how to write reflectively.

Part 5: A clear, simple structure

Not sure what goes where? If you have done the exercise in Part 4 reasonably well, you now probably have several pages, and perhaps ten or twenty ideas about yourself, your skills, your experiences, and your chosen course. In this part I’m going to show you how to organise all this content within a really clear, simple structure.
