Welcome to "Diversity at a Glance," where we highlight the diverse fabric of our university community. At HKUST, diversity is a vital aspect of our identity. We are dedicated to creating an environment where every individual feels welcomed, valued and empowered.

This page offers a snapshot of our community’s diversity, featuring key demographic data of our undergraduates and comparative insights. We invite you to explore these statistics, celebrate our diverse community, and join us in our journey towards a more inclusive campus.

Undergraduate Applications, Intakes and Graduation Rate by Gender

As an integral part of our commitment to gender equality and inclusivity, we measure and track a range of UG student data by gender. This data tracking is crucial to monitor and evaluate the adequacy of our strategies and efforts to promote gender equality.

Student Figures of Underrepresented Groups

We systematically measure and track the student admissions of those from low socio-economic status background, students with financial needs and Special Educational Needs (SEN). This data tracking informs the University’s strategic planning and practices to support underrepresented student groups.
