he School of Science comprises five departments: Biochemistry,
Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics and Physics. The School
enrolls about one-quarter of the University’s undergraduate and
postgraduate students.
In response to the needs of Hong Kong and consistent with the special
mission of HKUST, the departments in the School emphasize studies in
applied science. The undergraduate programs provide a strong core of
instruction in both basic and applied science through course work and
laboratory studies. The research-oriented postgraduate programs aim
at preparing students to become scientists who are capable of carrying
out independent and original research.
The departments collaborate with the Hong Kong Institute of Education
to jointly offer four cross-disciplinary integrated science undergraduate
programs as well as the Mathematics and IT Education program.
