    "The MicroMasters program was the perfect stepping stone for me on my path to pursuing a Master's degree in the School of Hotel and Tourism Management (SHTM) of The Hong Kong Polytechnic University. It is an excellent choice for students transitioning from undergraduate to Master's study. Not only has it given me the opportunity to learn from experienced professors and professionals in the industry from around the world, but it has also assisted me to complete my Master's degree more efficiently through credit transfer. Even better, the online learning mode allows me to study anytime, anywhere! That offers me great learning flexibility without the constraints of study time and space."
