Truly, I was blessed to have the opportunity to place my time and effort to enroll in MCNS. It has deepened my understanding of the principles and application of various diagnostic procedures, electrophysiological investigations and multi-disciplinary management of neurological diseases.

Vascular problem is always a major cause for the neurological diseases. Even I used to focus on Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease, their differential from stroke is always a critical question in clinic. MCNS programme mainly focus on the area of stroke and other closely related neurological diseases. The course content is highly practical.

This programme fits me well because it covers a wide range of knowledge related to stroke care, general neurology, neurorehabilitation and all relevant areas.

This programme has equipped me with essential knowledge about stroke and other common neurological diseases. I also have learnt more about the roles of other disciplines in treating various neurological conditions and thus facilitated communications with them. It has also enlightened me to think a step forward on how to improve the existing service of my workplace.

I work as a speech therapist at hospital and decided to join this master programme when I realized that I display great interest in stroke and neurological rehabilitation.

This programme consists of lectures and practicum. It provides students with fruitful knowledge related to stroke care, neuroimaging and other neurological diseases. Besides, it offers interactive workshops for students to gain practical exposures in different fields. These workshops help us to integrate theories into clinical practice.

Neurology always gives students the impression of many complicated and mysterious pictures. Honorably, I have the opportunity to uncover parts of the abstruse veils after completing the Master of Science Programme in Stroke and Clinical Neurosciences (MCNS).

At times, there were neurological conditions that I was not familiar with. Seeing more and more patients with diverse types of presentations, I felt that it was time to enrich my knowledge about stroke and neuroscience.

When I first saw the course leaflet of MCNS, I was deeply impressed because the curriculum of the programme is highly related to my daily clinical practice.

The content of this course, which I appreciate, is indeed rich. It covers all-round and comprehensive disciplines and aspects. It is to my surprise that they review and finetune the course content frequently and regularly for the purpose to enrich, update and broaden the horizons of the students.

I chose the Master of Science Program in Stroke and Clinical Neurosciences (MCNS) for my educational pursuit, since it is the first well-known program in neurology in Hong Kong. It is a well-structured course which could equip students with both clinical knowledge and professional skills in the management of stroke and neurological diseases.

This programme provided me with a holistic view for clinical management of neurological diseases in multiple disciplines, from the pathology, diagnostic investigation to treatment and rehabilitation. The structured lectures and practical sessions allowed me to have a deeper understanding of the work of my colleagues, and more importantly, of the ‘journey’ of my clients.
