About Hong Kong Baptist University
Over the years, HKBU has remained committed to the pursuit of excellence in education, research and service to the community. As one of Asia’s finest institutions of higher learning, HKBU is dedicated to nurturing future generations of civically engaged community members, and it provides them with a broad-based, transdisciplinary and creative education.
Its seven faculties/schools offer a wide array of programmes across a diverse range of disciplines, from the arts, business, communication, and social sciences to science and technology, Chinese medicine and sport.
With its fundamental strengths in the arts and humanities, HKBU offers an education and research environment that fosters technological progress with a focus on the human dimensions. At the same time, the University is using technology to push the envelope of human imagination in the arts and cultural sphere. Coupled with our unceasing efforts to achieve breakthroughs in science and Chinese medicine, HKBU strives to contribute to the building of a better world and a more compassionate society.
Central to HKBU’s 10-year Institutional Strategic Plan (2018-2028) is nurturing future-shaping students through transdisciplinary education. Alongside seven transdisciplinary second majors, HKBU offers five transdisciplinary undergraduate degree programmes and one individualised major. These programmes foster an understanding and commitment to sustainable development through contextualized and solution-based learning.
