Officially established in June 2022, the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Guangzhou) (HKUST(GZ)) is a legally independent higher education institution cooperatively run between the Chinese mainland and Hong Kong Special Administration Region.

Under the “Unified HKUST, Complementary Campuses” framework HKUST(GZ) and HKUST, while existing as separate legal entities, maintain consistency in the academic standard, faculty recruitment, and program quality. Such cross-campus collaboration produces greater synergy by sharing resources and complementing each other’s strengths.

In addition to pioneering a new path in higher education, HKUST(GZ) is fully committed to cultivating forward-looking talents with global visions who can flexibly adapt to the future development of the technology industry and society. Equipped with creative thoughts, innovative skills and professional expertise, graduates of the University are able to navigate the rapidly changing world inundated with increasingly complex challenges.
