14 HKUST aspires to take a leadership role in driving positive changes in education and research, empowering the next generation to address global challenges. Expanding our academic horizons and capabilities will push the boundary of excellence. Our innovation approach to education equips our students with the knowledge, skills, and mindset necessary to shape the future. We aim to unveil discoveries and applications in essential and emerging areas that have the potential to bring about transformations in the local, national, and global communities. Nurturing Talents for the Future University education is an important stage for students to develop the mindset and the ability to face and overcome challenges of tomorrow. With that in mind, we are constantly upgrading our curriculum to align it with broader societal goals on the future of our living, work, and people. In addition to advancing disciplinary learning, interdisciplinary education will be promoted to generate new visions and scholarship. In collaboration with The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Guangzhou) (HKUST(GZ)), students will be offered access to the expanded learning resources under the Cross-campus Enrichment Program. Furthermore, both young and mature students will benefit from more lifelong learning opportunities designed to equip them with the skills to thrive in the face of evolving societal needs. Ongoing enhancement of teaching is another focus. Participatory learning will be enhanced by adopting educational technology tools. We bridge education with the skills of the future by continuously enhancing the Common Core Program and other initiatives. In addition, HKUST will continue to empower faculty to develop innovative pedagogies by acknowledging and promoting exemplary practices. Beyond the transmission of professional knowledge, one of our key approaches is the provision of whole person education to our students. Our courses and extracurricular activities equip students with intellectual and ethical tools to understand themselves, their surroundings, and how they can contribute to society, both locally and globally. The persistence in improving our education offerings will ensure that our students realize their full potential. Expanding Academic Frontiers HKUST spares no effort in reshaping boundaries of knowledge. Our goal is to innovate medical care alongside biomedical research by nurturing future-ready physicians with medical competence and a strong research foundation, and transforming discoveries into new diagnostics and therapeutics.
