The University of Science and Technology of China has four campuses: East, West, North and South. Among them, ordinary undergraduates are all from the east and the west. North and South are mainly graduate students, adult teachers and some students who make up for the flexible academic system because they have not reached the required graduation credits. The four campuses are connected by campus buses, which are free, but you need to swipe your card (a consumer IC card) to prove that you are a teacher and student of HKUST. The west is a new campus and the east is an old campus, but the teachers in the east are better than those in the west. Two national laboratories, the microscale of the physical and chemical building in the east, the synchrotron radiation in the west and the famous quantum laboratory in the east, are applying for national laboratories. Once successful, China will have 65,438+00 national laboratories, including 6 in universities and 3 in HKUST.

HKUST is good at science, and science majors are national key disciplines, which is unique in China.
