Along with our global achievements in
the academic arena, HKUST has contin-
ued its drive to establish an increasingly
multicultural campus and to foster
greater overseas links at all levels of the
University community: as an institution,
among faculty, and between students.
During 2004-05, HKUST forged agree-
ments on international exchanges and
academic co-operation with a wide
range of prestigious institutions. The
University's extensive exchange program
provides HKUST students with the oppor-
tunity to experience a different way of
life and to widen their perspectives, while
at the same time broadening horizons on
campus by bringing overseas students to
HKUST. Faculty ties with peers in other
countries help spur academic progress.
In addition, many high-level international
delegations and visitors spent time on
campus. Countries represented include
Mexico, Kuwait, Ireland, the US, Canada,
Korea, Thailand, Austria and Sweden,
among others.
Such visits create links for HKUST around
the world and can have highly benefi-
cial results. This was well illustrated by the
successful launch of two joint summer
programs run by HKUST and the University
of California, Los Angeles, following a
UCLA delegation to HKUST the previous
year. The programs focused on global
studies and atmospheric science and
provided a platform for students and
faculty of both institutions to work in fields
of shared interest, while at the same time
expanding their knowledge of different
cultures. Some 52 HKUST and UCLA stu-
dents enrolled on the programs, which
included classroom-based study and
field trips. Expansion to cover more sub-
ject areas is envisaged.
