Overall Comments from the Panel
The Panel is pleased with the high standard of the shortlisted societies in the first year of the Award Scheme, and these include both new and well-established societies at HKUST. The shortlisted societies have done an excellent job. Most of them showed good management and made impressive achievements in one or more areas. While all the three award-winning student organizations demonstrated their efforts in seeking collaborations, bringing innovation, expanding their scope of activities and participants, and promoting diversity and inclusiveness. The panel is looking forward to receiving more high quality applications in next year.
