	STUDENT FEEDBACK

	" I really enjoyed the courses; they helped me to transform from purely "Technical" to having a "Business" mindset. The courses provided me with insights on aligning technology innovations with business needs and equipped me with the skill to communicate effectively with top management in different business units. The MScISM has redirected me to the path of career success. Together with sharing experiences with classmates who are senior executives with diverse backgrounds from different industries, you will gain not only knowledge, but also self-confidence and vision. I highly commend the MScISM! " Peter Kwan Class of 2010 Regional IT and Service Manager - Asia Pacific Moët Hennessy - Louis Vuitton (LVMH)

	" What I have learnt from HKUST MScISM courses definitely expanded my horizon and prepared me well with a new knowledge portfolio of essential IT business management to serve today's fast growing technology industry where success is dependent on a firm's competence in building flexible business models and operating strategies. From IP Law to Privacy management, the MScISM program gives all the training you need to start your journey to success. " Calvin Lam Class of 2009 Project Director Newtrek - A New World Development company

	" I come from an IT background and IT plays an important role in a corporation. Supporting the business is always a challenge and we all need to have a good understanding of the business in order to be successful. The MScISM program from HKUST enriched my knowledge from the business perspective so that I can come up with solutions and make decisions in the best interest of the business. Also, the program provided a great environment where everyone enjoyed themselves and had some fun. I am very glad that I chose this program, it is worth the time and effort spent. " Jess Hon Class of 2008 IT Operations Manager–Asia Pacific Sony Pictures Entertainment

	" I will recommend this program to my friends who are passionate for personal growth and career advancement. The courses are practical and conducted by experienced professors. They are so committed and energetic that there are always active participation and sparkling ideas in class. The course content is a perfect balance of IT and management aspects. Being a non-IT professional working in a leading IT company for years, I couldn't find such a perfect match for my study needs elsewhere…except for HKUST." Juran Chu Class of 2009 Manager Service Marketing and Customer Support Center Jardine OneSolution

	" What has impressed me most is the professors' dedication and passion for teaching and providing a strong knowledge-sharing environment. Sharing insight and experience is thoroughly encouraged through class discussion, analysis of relevant business case studies, and often simply outside-the-box thinking. Combined with the varied business and cultural backgrounds of both professors and classmates, this has made for an overall rewarding experience. In addition to learning new management tools and theories, the potential for networking with other business professionals was key to my decision for joining the program, all of which have been fruitful and quite often, lots of fun. " John Williams Class of 2010 Managing Partner and IT Consultant Tellcare GmbH

	" After attending HKUST's MScISM course, I have found that the subjects are very updated and relevant to me. I can easily apply what I have learnt to my working place as the subjects are both theoretical and practical. In addition to the experienced lectures, classmates coming from various backgrounds also help all of us to learn and think much more than from the course materials. In particular, I like the flexible course arrangement and its time scheduling so that we can mostly take courses on relaxed Saturdays around the university premise which has lots of greenery. I really enjoy studying MScISM at HKUST!" Norris Lam Class of 2007 Vice President Information Services HSBC

	" Being a non-IT professional, I found MScISM was the type of program that I expected from HKUST - insightful theories, practical tools and models, knowledgeable professors and interesting participants from various backgrounds. In fact this was the 2nd postgraduate program that I took at HKUST Business School." Patrick Sum Class of 2007 Audit Partner JP Morgan
