Facts & Figure
We Are Getting Stronger Everyday
Our very first batch of HKUST graduates began their undergraduate studies on October 2, 1991, and were conferred their degrees in 1993. Now, we have 99,947 graduates*, and this number is every growing!
The University has grown by leaps and bounds over three decades, and we cannot wait to see what is next. Most of all, we are proud our alumni demonstrate their distinguished qualities as HKUST graduates in the communities in which they live and work.
