Dear Students,

As summer break approaches, we wish you a relaxing and refreshing holiday! To kick off the summer, we are thrilled to announce the pilot launch of the Record of Out-of-Class Activities (ROC, pronounced as “rock”).

The ROC is designed to record both HKUST arranged out-of-class activities and your self-reported activities. When combined with continuous reflective practice, your ROC will serve as a dependable and solid indication of your out-of-class efforts throughout your undergraduate studies. You can start inputting your out-of-class activities into the Co-curricular Management System and build your ROC now. For more details about how the ROC works, please visit our website at https://dst.hkust.edu.hk/student-life/roc.

To celebrate our 2026 pilot launch, students who complete their inputs by 4 September 2026, will automatically be entered into a lucky draw. Winners will be notified via email in November 2026. Exciting prizes include:
