The Civil Service Bureau’s notice for the Administrative Officer grade and five related degree-level grades, with each grade’s entry requirements, salary scale and required language and aptitude papers. Note: this exercise has closed, so read it as the official statement of what these grades ask for. You must be a permanent resident of the HKSAR to be appointed, and Transport Officer II only accepts named disciplines.
Next action: Read the six grades’ entry requirements and mark which ones your degree and language results would meet, then look for the next exercise on the Civil Service Bureau site.
Read the Government Laboratory’s own entry requirements. The Chemist grade is a postgraduate route: a relevant bachelor degree plus either a Master’s degree or two years of relevant post-graduate experience, together with the civil service language and aptitude papers and the Basic Law test.
Next action: Check first whether you have, or can get, the Master’s degree or the two years of post-graduate experience, then check the CRE and Basic Law papers against results you already hold.
Read how HKUST’s School of Engineering describes its co-op option: five months or more full time on a company project, which the page says can count toward graduation requirements.

Read the official rules of the Innovation and Technology Fund STEM Internship Scheme: who can join, which universities and research centres take part, and the monthly allowance capped at 90 days an academic year.
