12-13 Mainland China admissions A warm welcome Welcome to the (HKU), and to this 2018-19 Global Admissions Profile. This is an annual report by my University on not just the outstandingly high quality of our undergraduate enrolments, but on the opportunities that are made available to these students once they have been successfully admitted to HKU.

While we strive to ensure that our teaching and learning is of the highest quality, a full educational experience requires significant investment of staff time and financial resources in many learning activities beyond the campus. This Global Admissions Profile covers a selection of these, to give a flavour of how international our graduates are once they leave HKU. A typical undergraduate from HKU these days might well have completed an exchange semester at a leading university in the U.S. or U.K., an internship in the Mainland, a summer working on a service learning project for a rural African community, and several study tours, summer schools or trips abroad. It is these experiences, and the independence, maturity, planning skills, language competencies, teamwork skills and sensitivity to other peoples and cultures that emerge from those experiences, that make HKU alumni stand Professor Xiang Zhang apart from many others. To employ a rather overused phrase, President and Vice-Chancellor they graduate from HKU as “Global Citizens”, that is, individuals who have the skills to go with their undoubted talents, to face the changes and uncertainties of the 21st century.

This year’s Global Admissions Profile, as the cover shows, coincides with a Times Higher ranking placing HKU as the Most International University in the world. In HKU, however, we are not swayed too much by rankings, as we measure ourselves more by what we are doing to push our University further ahead of the traditional assessments of performance that are measured by rankings. Indeed, the most impressive aspect of HKU’s internationalization is not the number of overseas or Mainland students on the HKU campus, nor the number of professors who are from outside Hong Kong, both typical measures of internationalization. It is the number of educational opportunities available to students, local and non-local, outside Hong Kong. This now exceeds 10,000 in any one year, which, when put alongside the number of undergraduates that are admitted to HKU each year (around 4,000), goes a long way to explaining why our graduates are so internationally-minded, and so much in demand from the community here, as well as beyond Hong Kong.

Whether you are a friend of HKU, an alumnus, or a potential applicant to HKU, I invite you to spend some time browsing through this Global Admissions Profile, to get a clearer idea of why HKU is regarded and respected so highly by our partners.
