Yara, a third-year German student from the HKU-Sciences Po Dual Degree Programme, just began her journey in Hong Kong and is excited to immerse herself in the vibrant culture, welcoming people, and amazing food of this lively city.

“As someone who has always flourished in multicultural contexts, engaging with diverse perspectives, such as those at HKU and Sciences Po, is essential to me. Combining the political science knowledge I gained in France, I have decided to major in China Studies at HKU to acquire a comprehensive grasp of the culture, language, and society of China and to broaden my global perspective in the Social Sciences. Besides international politics and philosophy, I also enjoy language learning and cultural exchanges.” Yara reveals her unique perspective as an HKUer.

“Through the dual degree programme, I have developed transferable skills, from effective communication, and critical thinking, to a global outlook, which enables me to pursue a career in diplomacy.” Yara reveals her aspiration for the future, “Having discovered my passion and potential for foreign policy and affairs, I hope to pursue further study in international public or human rights law.”

Beyond studies and academic exchange, Yara joined several groups and communities, including the HKU Astréas - Art Organisation, to pursue her passion for the arts and express her creativity through performances on the theatre team.
