ALUMNI’S UPDATES Charity CHEUNG (GCS Class of 2017) As a graduate of the Global China Studies program, Charity greatly valued the diverse experiences that shaped her academic and personal growth. It was in the SOSC 3600 Public Policy course that she ignited her academic interest in this eld, inspiring her to pursue a master’s degree in Public Policy after graduation. While working part-time at Starbucks, Charity unexpectedly developed a passion for coffee-making, ultimately launching her own roasting business in Champagne, France. Building something new is often challenging, especially in a foreign country. However, driven by her passion and determination, Charity succeeded in winning several coffee competitions and represented France on the world stage. During her time in France, she also connected with other GCS exchange students, bringing back her good memories at HKUST. Currently, Charity has returned to Hong Kong to pursue her dreams.
