“With Hong Kong’s return to China on July 1,1997, we have seen the dawning of a new era. At UST, we are taking part in China’s nation building as we work to secure Hong Kong’s future prosperity through

/‘or-g Kong is ernerginq as the nucleus of South China’s development-the nerve cel?e- for the va ,t hinterland south of the Yangtze River basin.

“Within this region, ii new metropolis is c-oming into being at the mouth of the Pearl River; in what I c?li tf,e ‘Hong Koqg Bay Area’.

“In the 2 1 st century, :he Hon!~ Kong Bay /irea will be a place of scenic beauty as well as a prominent ::enrer of cur:ure, ecucatron, finance, high technology science, telecommunicatron, tourism, rranspo?ation, and other advanced service and manufacturing indL.strres.

“In Nansha. at the n:)rthwestern corner of the triangle shown on this map, we are collaborating wi!h the Fok Ying Tunt] Foundation in the creation of an infor’nation technology park that WIII develop new technologies and train skil1e.j workers to meet the IT needs of busiresses and industry in the area.

‘/\nd in Shenzhen. we are joining force,: with Peking University to establish a mutrfaceted research academy that will offer executive education programs, unde take collaborative R&D projects, and incut ate new high-tech enterpnses.

“From this. our home base in the Hone: Kong Bay Area, we at UST are exter drng out contributions to all of Chin?. and to the world beyond.”

to learn from tile best. This saying articulates a Chinese belief and t! adition that UST is proud to continue.

All US’I faculty members hold doctorates and share M irh their students the training and experience they nhceived at the finest universities in the world.

At US I’, faculty members move easily between re- s:arch laboratories and lecture halls, bringing fresh ir tsight s and the excitement of their discoveries to the c assroom.

F lr these dedicated scholars, excellence in teaching gses hand-in-hand with excellence in creative so holarship.

mrork hard-continu IUS assessment in the classroom means that then- rer- formance matters throughout the term, jL SI ;as it ,vilI in the real world when they graduate.

At UST. the goal for every student is a comy)lete education-a lifelong process. To start OD their ~ay, undergraduates b;llance in-depth kno\nledge cf a chostan subject wirh work in other disciplines, in- cluding the humanities and social science:?, Ianguitge training, and the development of interper:,onal c om- munication skills.

State-of-the-art laboratories, innovativrx teaching methods, a high-speed fiber-optic campus network, and an information-age library extending to illI c jr- ners of the world-lhe learning environmttnt at US? is second to none.

Faculty members have only a short time to ope11 a young person’s mind and instill the confidence a’ld drive that will resulr in a capacity for lifelong le,z~ n- ing. At UST, we shart. a dedication to help each of cur students achieve th,lt goal.

Graduates find that in today’s fast-moving world, an .Idvanced degree is rapidly becoming a necessity for :hose who aspire to top positions in their chosen profession and to leadership and influence in the i:ommunity.

it UST, graduate students enrolled in taught master’s degree programs acquire advanced academic train- ,ng and professional skills through part-time as well AS full-time study.

Research degrees at the master’s and doctoral levels ,ne offered by every one of UST’s 19 departments and ilivisions. Graduate students work closely with outstanding scholars on a one-to-one basis, gaining ihe skills and confidence that will enable them to participate in a worldwide intellectual community.

Productive research is the result of dedicated effort. ‘To support this commitment, the University provides Al full-time research students with campus housing ;tnd stipends.

“I chose UST and I’m glad I did. I really fell in love with the University.”

ing me solutions, says a business maxim.

How can we upgrade manufacturing processes in the region? How should joint ventures be managed in China? Can traditional Chinese medicines help to cure cancer? How do we protect air and water quality in the Pearl River Delta?

Questions like these provide impetus for research programs breaking new ground in areas deemed critical IO Hong Kong’s development in the 21st century.

Many projects find support in UST’s interdisciplinary research institutes and centers. Some have been designated “high impact areas”, including:

China business and management Construction and structural engineering Electronic packaging and assembly Language and speech technology Nanostructure science and technology Traditional Chinese medicine

Transportation systems

At UST, researchers are exploring a multitude of fields, working to find solutions to the problems facing society and opening new frontiers for a rapidly developing region.

“We are working with corporate leaders to generate the knowledge that will help companies perform effectively in China and other Asian economies.”

Prof AnneTSUl

xcellence in basic research is

the hallmark of every major research university, Cmd UST is no exception.

Working in state-of-the-art facilities, the UST faculty consistently achieves a high rate of succ~~ss in peer- reviewed, competitive research funding, enabling the University to lead all Hong Kong academic inst:tu- tions in number of research grants received, success rate, and per-capita funding.

In research output, the UST faculty is again top-ranked as measured by individual productivity and percentage of faculty members receiving an “excellent” rating in a recent assessment of the research publications of Hong Kong universities.

,4t UST, this high standard of achievement serves as a benchmark of progress towards a key objective- advancing regional development through world-class research in Hong Kong.

iversity R&D makes a difference.

Through applied research, product incubation. executive education, and other forms of technology transfer, the knowledge created and the skills and technologies developed at the University are passed directly to society.

UST researchers were the first to offer commercial Internet access to individuals, businesses, and public institutions in Hong Kong, creating the region’s most successful Internet service provider and a new iocal industry.

UST researchers worked in collaboration with

atmospheric scientists from the US to equip the new Hong Kong International Airport with the world’s most advanced weather monitoring system.

UST researchers working with the pharmaceutical

industry developed a new drug delivery technique that allows a drug such as insulin to be administered through inhalation rather than by injection.

“We’re working with a leading multinational company to Develop the next generation of mobile devices.This collaboration deepens the impact of our research on industry, and keeps our work at the cutting edge.”

(17)

UST researchers investigating traditional Chinese medicines developed a new antioxidant to combat the effects of human aging and protect against heart and liver disease. This product is now on the market.

UST researchers developed a “smart fluid” that can

change into a solid when an electric field is applied. When the field is removed, the solid changes back to liquid form-a capability with the potential to radically alter the design of high-speed valves, clutches, and engine transmissions.

UST researchers worked with a leading Hong Kong

bank to develop a compurerized investment program that can create a custom- tailored portfolio of invest- ments to match each customer’s needs and tolerance for risk.

In all these fields and more, researchers at UST are actively collaborating with private and public-sector organizations to create knowledge that will strengthen Hong Kong’s economy and improve its quality of life.
