On August 30, 2024, we had the joy of welcoming around 1,000 freshman students to our vibrant Business School community at the S. H. Ho Sports Hall. It is one of the largest cohorts of first-year students in the school's 35-year history! 


The event kicked-off with addressed from our Acting Dean, Prof. HUI Kai-Lung, and our Associate Director, Prof. Melody Chao, offering inspiring words of advice to all freshman on beginning a new chapter of their lives at HKUST, followed by a series of engaging games for the students. To add excitement, members of the Business Cohort Community (BCC) and our Peer Mentoring Program Committee (PMC) - sponsored by the Karen Lee Student Mentoring Center - introduced themselves to create a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. The PMC also promoted the invaluable work of the Peer Mentor Committee members during the session. What’s more, our very own PMC member, William Hung, was the MC for this memorable event!


The event concluded with energetic dance performances from the talented Dance Society, leaving everyone feeling energized and ready for the year ahead!
