Lecturers are the same as HKG full time student. Some of them are even the really world class professors of Kellogg-HKUST EMBA which cost you US$80,000.....hence it is very worthwhile deal in SZ(US$20,000).
one sentence conclusion: even the examination content is same as the full time in HKG. 40% roughly courses are required closed book and notes.No Cheating!!! You could image the quality criteria is strict request by school. Anyway once per week is much better than once per month module...easy for you to preview and digest the essence of every subject. Most of HKG students are more hardwork and commitment than mainland student. Believe or not! If you really want to be the qualified executive in first class MNC rather than State-owned and local provite enterprises. HKUST is fit.
