'HKU Science is the only Faculty offering an intensive major programme in Ecology & Biodiversity in Hong Kong, and this is why I am here! I am eager to learn directly from the grand masters and masters — a precious opportunity exclusive to students of this Science Master Class programme, so that I can further enrich my knowledge and develop my practical skills in Ecology and Biodiversity. I hope this programme can equip me to conduct research about habitat studies of succulent plants in Mexico, South Africa and Madagascar in the future.'

‘During my first two years at HKU, I assisted with research on ants and butterflies. After joining the Global Change and Tropical Conservation lab, I finished my SRF on spiders and have been working as a student Research Assistant on a light pollution project in the lab. Through all three research experiences, my understanding of ecology and biodiversity deepened, which made me one step closer to my dream to be a researcher. Besides, by learning from the Grand Masters in a series of master tutorials, I acquired fascinating transdisciplinary knowledge and methods of conducting research. I hope one day I can devote myself to ecology research and protect the beautiful yet delicate natural world.’
