This course will increase students’ awareness of their well-being and help them build habits for personal and interpersonal development. It also aims to foster their identity and confidence as students at HKUST. Lectures will provide the facts and the scientific bases of well-being. Experiential workshops will provide opportunities to assess and practise wellness skills (physical, emotional and social). Students will bring knowledge and skills together through journaling, reflecting on how they can integrate knowledge and practices into their lives, as well as promote them to others. In smaller class groups called ‘communities’, students will share their journaling. They will also work in their communities on a project to devise wellness initiatives for a specified group, for example, residents of a student hall.
