HKUST and HKUST(GZ)
Founded in 1991 and located at Clear Water Bay, Hong Kong, the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) has been at the forefront of advancing learning and knowledge through teaching and research, linked with the development of the wider society. It is wholly committed to its mission of social and economic development of Hong Kong through nurturing talents.
