ocated right next to Fok Ying Tung
Sports Center, with superb panoramic
sea views, Hall VIII and Hall IX are the latest
undergraduate (UG) halls at HKUST. Not
only do students enjoy a well-facilitated living
environment, but thanks to the formation of
the Organizing Team, residents of the two
halls can take part in a wide array of activities,
including joint hall orientation, fun day, hall dinner and sports competition, to help them make the most of the diversity of cultures in the halls,
as well as cultivate their leadership skills. Here’s a pictorial guide to these new-look halls!
