Welcome to the CUHK website, the virtual gateway to The Chinese University of Hong Kong.
The Chinese University of Hong Kong is a research-based,
comprehensive university with eight Faculties
— Arts, Business
Administration, Education, Engineering, Law, Medicine, Science and Social Science. The University was established over 40 years ago with a mission to 'combine tradition with modernity; and to bring together China and the West'.
We distinguish ourselves among local universities
by virtue of our rich Chinese cultural heritage,
a bilingual and bicultural tradition, and a unique collegiate system. Our faculty and students hail from the world over, and we maintain close ties
with important seats of learning both in Mainland
China and overseas. The quality of our research
and teaching enjoys recognition worldwide.
I encourage you to explore our website where you will find a wealth of information about us and our aspirations to build a student-centred and research-based university. You are also welcome to visit our picturesque campus in Shatin where you will meet faculty and students from 45 countries and regions outside Hong Kong—truly a global community in miniature epitomizing our belief in 'education without borders'. |
