City University of Hong Kong (Dongguan) hosted its Open Day on 15 June in Songshan Lake, Dongguan, inviting prospective students, parents, technology companies and fellow universities.

CityUHK achieved outstanding results in the latest “2025 Research Leaders: Leading Institutions” rankings, released by the Nature Index. CityUHK was ranked No. 1 in Hong Kong, 70th globally and 37th in the Asia Pacific region.

City University of Hong Kong (CityUHK) has achieved outstanding results in the 2025–2026 U.S. News & World Report Best Global Universities Rankings, placing 54th among 2,250 universities worldwide — a significant leap of 25 places from last year.

The programme strengthened collaboration between the municipal advisory body and the university while broadening participants’ perspectives and refining their policy advisory capabilities.  

Over 40 undergraduates and postgraduate students tackled real-world technical challenges set by the companies during the over-40-hour hackathon.

This year, the Grand Prize in Category C (for non-English major undergraduates) was awarded to just 0.1% of participants. 

A prestigious new programme titled “Fostering Innovation for Resilience and Sustainable Transformation” (FIRST) spearheaded by CityUHK has been officially endorsed by UNESCO.

Imagine spending one year exploring and another year gaining experience before finally confirming your university major—would this approach help you more accurately identify your true interests?
