Message from the President

Prof Simon HoWelcome to The Hang Seng University of Hong Kong (HSUHK)!

HSUHK is a dynamic and promising non-profit private university which advocates the transformative power of immersive, interdisciplinary liberal arts and science education. It is a residential institution featuring top-quality faculty members, award-winning green campus facilities, innovative degree programmes, RGC-funded impactful research, and excellent student development/ support services.

Self-financed institutions are often more flexible and can bring in more programmes and teaching innovations. Aspiring to be a leading private liberal-arts-oriented university, HSUHK plays a unique and substantial role in the higher education sector in Hong Kong and in the region.

Adopting the unique “Liberal + Professional” education model, the quality of our undergraduate experience is characterised by small class teaching, very close student-teacher relationships, guidance and mentorship for individual students outside classrooms, residential college experiences, and vast opportunities for internships, international exchange and independent research. The University puts quality teaching and students’ all-round development as its highest priorities, aiming at nurturing young talents with critical thinking, innovative minds, caring attitude, moral values and social responsibility.

HSUHK students are outstanding young people with dreams, diligence and passion. They are proactive in driving positive changes in society while upholding values and beliefs. As the President, I support HSUHK students to pursue their all-round development, explore their own interests and unleash their diverse potentials, and eventually actualise their values and beliefs.

With the above distinctive qualities and the concerted efforts of our members, we are proud to witness a number of important achievements in recent years, and we shall continue to build upon the foundation we have laid and scale new heights.

You are most welcome to explore more on our core values, development and achievements in our University website.
