The DSE Diploma of Secondary School Examination list is about to be released. The "Silver Bullet" of the University of Science and Technology attracts top students. If a new student obtains a 5** in a subject in the Diploma Examination, they will receive an admission scholarship of $5,000, and so on.
The annual undergraduate scholarship provided by HKUST is mainly divided into academic and non-academic categories. The third-year student Liang Gaojun studying data science and technology courses has been awarded more than a dozen different awards/bursaries since admission, totaling 600,000 yuan.
Liang Gaojun obtained 5** in four subjects in the DSE. His GPA (total score points, full score of 4) exceeded 3.5 at HKUST. He actively participated in extracurricular activities including scientific research, and spontaneously wrote programs to assist children with speech disabilities. In mathematics, students who take only one major need to read 40 credits more than usual. This is all because of his father's motivation for learning.
Single-parent families grow up and study hard, hoping to make their father live a good life
When Liang Gaojun's parents divorced when he was one year old, he was taken care of by his father.
It's just that the good times are not very frequent. My father suffers from kidney failure and is unable to work, so he started doing part-time jobs to help the family in middle school.
In his eyes, his father has always been his motivation, hoping to let his father live a better life, so he has been studying hard since he was young, and has been actively applying for different types of scholarships, with a total of 600,000 yuan.
He received an exchange scholarship of 300,000 yuan from a bank and will study at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in the United States for a semester in January 2022.
Liang Gaojun has always been particularly interested in programming. After getting along with relatives and friends with Down syndrome, she found that her words were disordered, and her words were inconsistent when expressing simple sentences. Although the teachers and family members have spent a lot of effort to correct them. , But the results were unsuccessful.
Therefore, he founded a student organization called YouVoice by collecting and analyzing data on children with speech development delays. He hopes that the team can successfully develop AI voice robots that train their language development and help children with different family backgrounds.
He also said that the team is currently facing some technical problems, so he hopes to have a better understanding of physical and mental language programming when studying at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the United States, and then successfully develop the most suitable AI voice robot.
Liang Gaojun said that "the motivation for reading comes from his father."

Inspired by daily life, I hope to create an organization to promote gender equality between men and women
Feng Yunqi, a third-year student studying Global Business at the Business School, was inspired by daily life and spontaneously founded an organization and a small social enterprise, which made her the winner of the Innovation Scholarship.
When she participated in the competition, she observed that boys generally believed that girls were inferior to them and refused to be in the same group as girls, which inspired her to create LEAP, an organization focused on promoting gender equality between men and women, to improve the situation.
Feng Yunqi learned that Hong Kong’s bean dregs was wasted 250,000 tons every month, which caused her to hope to establish a small social enterprise SOKA to recycle the bean dregs and turn them into nutritious and delicious food.
She hopes to continue participating in more different activities and competitions and bring more changes to the people and things around her.
