Campus & Facilities

The Hang Seng University of Hong Kong (HSUHK) has been embarking on a long-term development plan with the goal of becoming a leading private university since 2010. We have expanded a green campus which offers state-of-the-art learning, teaching, research and residential facilities to meet the needs and demands of quality tertiary education in the 21st century. HSUHK is the first among the higher education institutions in Hong Kong to achieve the final “Platinum” rating, the highest standard awarded by the BEAM Plus Assessment Scheme of the Hong Kong Green Building Council (HKGBC) for its commitment to applying environmental measures in academic buildings, residential halls and facilities. HSUHK also received the greatest number of awards of BEAM Plus “Platinum” and was a finalist of Green Building Award of HKGBC.

HSUHK is grateful for the Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust for the donation of HK$200 million towards the construction cost of the HSUHK Jockey Club Residential Colleges, with about 1,200 students accommodated in these three blocks of residence halls with four colleges including Fung Yiu King Evergreen College, Lee Yick Hoi Lun Mosaic College, Patrick S C Poon Amity College and S H Ho Wellness College. As part of the Master Campus Expansion Plan, the three blocks of residence halls adopt a model similar to “Residential Colleges (RC)” which combines living and learning for students to learn and to engage in self-improvement to develop interpersonal networks, and to nurture students a sense of commitment and self-discipline. The RC achieved the Final Platinum rating of BEAM Plus New Buildings V1.2 certification awarded by the Hong Kong Green Building Council and received the Certificate of Compliance Registration for Energy Efficiency of Building Services Installation issued by the Electrical and Mechanical Services Department.

The site is well situated on the hillside to enjoy a green vista of plants and trees within a short walkway distance uphill from the main campus. There are about 400 student quarters in this hostel complex, three to four students share a quarter with a built-in washroom and shower unit. As a succession of the entire campus theme design, this Site F hostel development continued its architectural design features same as S H Ho Academic Building to Lee Quo Wei Academic Building. Part of the facade was constructed of window wall and terracotta cladding system. Over 30% of site is covered by soft landscape including vertical greens and green roofs.

This site is located on two levels of vista green plateau, with three sides surrounded by trees and bamboo bush slopes at the back. The hostel development portion facing south enjoys a full open unobstructed view of Tate’s Cairn Tunnels entrance runway with natural ecological surroundings at the back, which forms a natural environmental contrast. The residence halls concentrated PV panels installed at roof top as an alternative electricity power supply for hostels’ common corridors, general lighting and part of hot water power supply. A Key Card System is adopted as the main tool for student residents to gain access to the main entrance doorways of the halls, entrance doors of each block and residential unit. It is also used for paying the unit’s air-conditioning electricity consumption and usage of self-service laundries. Security monitoring devices are installed at the main entrance, block entrance and escalator lobby.

To promote students’ hall life, there are a communal hall, a study room, pigeon holes and security counter, storage at the ground floor and laundry area at the lower ground floor of each block. In addition, there is an outdoor recreation ground for student activities.

Construction of the HSUHK Jockey Club Residential Colleges was completed in September 2015.

Creative Humanities Hub

Creative Humanities Hub is a new building with sustainability-conscious construction, located between the oldest section of the campus and the more recent developments, thereby connecting “the old with the new” in both a physical and metaphorical sense. Creative Humanities Hub houses a Gallery, Classrooms, a Lecture Hall, and academic offices. In December 2023, prior to the completion of Creative Humanities Hub, it attained the Provisional Platinum rating of BEAM Plus New Buildings V2.0 certification, awarded by the Hong Kong Green Building Council. The Project also received the “Gold Award in QS Award (Innovation)”, awarded by the Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors.

From its building design to construction, green features have been incorporated in every aspect to reduce our carbon footprint, such as the highest efficiency of energy and water facilities, eco-friendly construction materials, integrated design with the support of Building Information Modelling (BIM), and other documentation systems. PV panels installed on the rooftop serve as an alternative electricity power supply for general lighting and power within the building.
