We are on the lookout for alumni to help Relocation Program thrive. If you have what it takes, please get in touch.
The Relocation Program allows exchange students and alumni to be eased into a new city and culture by connecting to a Relocation Host, an HKUST alumnus who works and lives there. The Program helps guests integrate into the local community by providing cultural tips on things to do, places to see, restaurants to try, apps to download and other important pieces of advice.
When students move to a new environment, there are many things they need to learn and acclimatize to, and for many, it can be a very daunting experience to deal with. This is where the Relocation Program comes in. Established for more than a decade, the signature program pairs many Relocation Hosts (alumni) and Relocation Guests (alumni and exchange students).
The brilliance of this Program lies in taking the stress away from the situation, with our network spanning over 100 cities and countries worldwide, students never feel alone. Aside from providing essential on-the-ground support, hosts provide useful advice and help newcomers settle in. As a guest, you will get connected with a friendly host who can answer your questions and ease the transition.
