i think your questions would be better answered by their MBA office and not online message board, message board is good for student/applicatn experience comments.

Based on my personal experience, as well as on the experience of the second year students, marketing courses in HKUST are really good. Out of the first batch of MBA core courses, Marketing Strategy and Policy was the best. The problem is, there are too few marketing elective courses, and you will have to do something about it if you want to focus on marketing. IT courses here are good either, so that if you are interested in IT+Marketing, HKUST is a reasonable choice. But you won't get Marketing concentration in your diploma.
