HKUST begins preparations for new medical school

Global admissions are expected to open by 2027.

The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology has started preparations to establish a new medical school.

The university will offer a four-year graduate-entry Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery programme, initially admitting around 50 local and non-local students.

Global admissions will open by 2027 or earlier, with the first cohort set to begin in the 2028/29 academic year or earlier.

Faculty recruitment has drawn interest from 36 senior medical professors in the US, Europe, Singapore, and Australia.
