PPOL Students Won Prize at OSHC Project Competition MPP Study Trip to Tencent (Shenzhen) Student Achievement We are delighted to share that three students from the Master of Public Policy (MPP) Program of the Division of Public Policy (PPOL) at HKUST— LI Yueqing, CHEN Shumin, and LI Haixin—have achieved outstanding success in the recent Project Competition organized by the Hong Kong Occupational Safety & Health Council (OSHC). MPP (Master of Public Policy Program) students from the Division of Public Policy, HKUST visited Tencent Headquarters in Shenzhen. Led by Prof. Alex Jingwei He, they explored digitally empowered innovations in elderly care and social services. From the contributions of enterprises in elderly care innovation from a public welfare perspective to the impact of AI in healthcare business from a commercial standpoint, and Tencent’s practices in supporting youth education, the sharing sessions by experts from Tencent provided students with a multifaceted view on social and policy issues. During the interactive session, students actively discussed potential regulatory and ethical issues related to AI products, as well as the implementation methods and pathways of corporate public welfare projects. These sessions further enhanced their understanding of theoretical knowledge and its application in the real world. Look forward to more enrichment activities soon! Their innovative project stood out among entries from over 30 international teams, earning them the top prize and the honour of representing Hong Kong at the OSAKA EXPO 2025. Their proposal has already been showcased at the Expo, offering a global audience a glimpse into the policy innovation and talent fostered at HKUST. The team was formally recognized at the OSHC Awards Ceremony held on May 29, 2025. This remarkable achievement reflects their creativity, teamwork, and commitment to public policy solutions with real-world impact. We are incredibly proud of their success and look forward to seeing their continued contributions on the international stage! 42 Student Hub
