Postgraduate Education
HKUST is specifically charged with the mission of advancing knowledge
at the postgraduate level, with all four Schools offering postgraduate
degrees. The University’s 3,000 postgraduates work in either research-
postgraduate programs leading to M.Phil and Ph.D degrees, or in
taught postgraduate programs. HKUST’s EMBA programs, run jointly
with the Kellogg School of Management, is consistently ranked among
the best in the world.
The University boasts world-class faculty members in science,
engineering, business and management, as well as humanities and
social science, doing cutting-edge research as well as quality teaching.
The studies offered are diverse, including bioengineering, computer
science, chemical engineering, wireless communications, artificial
intelligence, financial mathematics, marine environmental science,
linguistics and modern Chinese history, marketing and accounting,
among many others. They seek not just to advance knowledge but
also to advance social and economic development in Hong Kong
and beyond.
During the year, the University Grants Committee allocated 93
additional research places to the University, 30 of which have
been allocated specifically to the key areas of nanoscience and
nanotechnology. This significantly strengthens HKUST’s capability in
training the next generation of researchers.
While focused on our research strengths, we do not overlook
collaborative opportunities with our sister institutions. We are
particularly proud of our innovative joint program in Molecular Medicine
with the University of Hong Kong and the Chinese University of Hong
Kong. It is set to raise Hong Kong’s medical science profile, with 18
postgraduates located just at the HKUST campus alone.
