Capstone Experience and Industry Internship

The capstone project or industry internship provides students with valuable practical experience to advance their career in the industry or further studies.

Student should choose one option where the project should be designated as Capstone (CMB) or Capstone (DHT). For internship, relevance of the internship to a stream must be confirmed by the programme co-directors prior to the start of the internship.

Students will have a choice to conduct a capstone project with a HKUMed academic staff, or to conduct industry internship with one of our industry partners (this option is only available to full-time students).
