The Report concluded that “PolyU has a long-standing and firm commitment to quality assurance” and that “there is a strong culture of quality assurance in the University”. The report also commended PolyU for “the clear sense of its vision and mission”, its “deep relationship with industry” as well as its various innovative and practical approaches used to facilitate student learning.

The panel commended PolyU for “the integration of professional practice in the design of its curricula with an appropriate balance of theoretical and practical knowledge”. It also gave highly favourable comments to PolyU in regard to its emphasis on Work-Integrated Education (WIE) as an institutional strategy to foster students’ capacity for applying theory to practice, and the effective planning, implementation and support for WIE across the institution.
