Connie Ni is a third-year student at Penn majoring in Health and Societies: Healthcare Markets and Finance and minors in Chemistry and East Asian Area Studies. In the Fall 2024 semester, Connie will be studying abroad at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. She can’t wait to explore the rich and complex history of Hong Kong and utilize this time to study the medical system, especially in comparison with American healthcare. At Penn, she is an SNF Paideia Fellow and involved in the Shelter Health Outreach Program, a researcher at CHOP, and dances with CityStep Penn. In her free time, Connie enjoys trying new restaurants, cafe-hopping, and dancing. While studying abroad, she looks forward to sharing her experiences with the Penn Abroad community.
During her upcoming semester, she is particularly looking forward to...
- Eating her way through Hong Kong and trying all the different international cuisines!
- Comparing healthcare policy dialogue and financing infrastructure between Hong Kong and the US
- Visiting as many countries in Asia as possible
- Experiencing the Mid-Autumn Festival in Hong Kong and China!
- Spending time with family and making new friends
