Starting this year, the first group of undergraduates will begin their studies in Shenzhen. Under this joint education model, students will be awarded dual degrees from both universities, receiving official diplomas and graduation certificates from each university.

This partnership represents a pivotal milestone in the educational integration of the Shenzhen-Hong Kong region. Furthermore, the collaboration provides students with robust cross-campus exchange opportunities, paving the way for a seamless academic journey from bachelor’s through to doctoral studies.
