Down the home stretch

This week marks the beginning of the end, the last semester that many of us in the 16 month program will be here in HK taking classes with one another. It really does go by fast, and it is hard to believe that while most will not graduate until January, being on exchange in fall and working over the summer limits our dedicated time to the program to 9+ months.

Although my load is particularly light this semester, the projects that are running in tandem keep me quite busy. Time is now split between class (1/3), Field study and Business plan work(1/3) and job/internship searching(1/3). While there is a lot of nervousness in the air for the ones who have not yet secured an internship, there is hope. The recent rate of offerings has been increasing, and it seems like every day another one of our classmates has the opportunity to say that they landed a most amazing internship opportunity.

Stay tuned, as my team will be participating in the HKUST International Business Plan this upcoming week and the competition sounds exciting!
