To assist graduates' job search, the newly created online interactive platform BUHub links up job vacancies of 11 employment websites and opens up more than 30,000 job vacancies and 2,000 internship opportunities. Moreover, the University has invited veterans of various fields to hold a series of SEED talks to share their insights, thereby facilitating students’ personal and career development. |

The three-year “BOC-HKBU Chinese Medicine Community Stroke Prevention and Rehabilitation Scheme” provides treatment and rehabilitation for 400 post-stroke patients and offers preventive medicines to 1,200 elderly people at high risk of stroke. Apart from reducing public healthcare expenses, improving the quality of life of stroke patients, and increasing the success rate of rehabilitation initiatives, the Scheme can serve as a good example for constructing a community medical service management model based on collaboration between the Chinese medicine sector and the community. |
