Pursuing research excellence is one of the priorities of the University’s Institutional Strategic Plan 2018-2028. The University keeps enhancing its capacity and strength to produce world-class research with an aim to bring significant impact to the society. 

Strategic Clusters of Strengths

Encompassing HKBU’s research strengths, the University has identified three strategic clusters to enhance the University’s research coherence and foster the alliances of research strengths, thus, delivering impactful knowledge to the community.  These strategic clusters are: Creative Media/Practice, Health and Drug Discovery, Data Analytics and Artificial Intelligence.
