1. What activities will be counted as WIE?

Since each job is unique itself, students should check with the department General Office or WIE Coordinator by providing relevant information and details.

No. Only work experience acquired during your study at PolyU will be considered.
3. How can I apply for an internship? Will the department provide internship opportunity?
Students are responsible for applying internship opportunities themselves. You may visit the PolyU Student Affairs Office (SAO) webpage for more details on the local and non-local job opportunities: https://www.polyu.edu.hk/sao/careers-and-placement-section/plan-for-your-careers/.
