Welcome Message from President
Dear New Students of HSUHK,
Welcome to the HSUHK family! I would like to express my heartiest congratulations as you embark on a new learning journey at The Hang Seng University of Hong Kong.
HSUHK is a community where staff and fellow students are committed to supporting each other in learning and self-development, thus creating an academic environment where “Wisdom” can flourish. By working together as “HSUnity” and leveraging our diverse strengths and resources, we cultivate our students the competencies and attitudes crucial for the challenging era. Therefore, we have adopted “HSUnity – Wisdom” as the theme for this year’s New Student Orientation.
HSUHK’s unique “Liberal + Professional” education model helps equip our students with five core transferrable qualities (“5Cs”): Critical thinking, Creativity, Communication & Collaboration, Caring attitude, and Continuous proactive learning. Here at HSUHK, you will have numerous learning opportunities to enhance these qualities and build wisdom, enabling you to shine in the days ahead.
In addition to academic studies, I encourage you to make the most of the learning opportunities and resources at HSUHK, such as joining student associations and University teams, participating in service learning, engaging in international exchanges and/or internships, undertaking independent research projects, and experiencing residential college life. These experiences will broaden your insights, help you explore your potential, and build your personal values.
I believe the purpose of university education is not only to provide you with professional knowledge and skills for future employment. More importantly, we nurture you so that you can confidently handle challenges in your future work and life as a well-rounded and responsible global citizen, achieving a sense of purpose and satisfaction.
Lastly, let me also remind you upholding the University’s Motto (Erudition and Perseverance) and Core Values (Mutual Trust/Respect, Value-Addedness, Innovativeness, Caring Attitude and Responsibility). Achieving our Missions requires a learning culture comprising of these values.
I hope you will enjoy your university life to the fullest and wish you a happy and fruitful learning journey at HSUHK!
Simon S.M. Ho

恒生大學的獨特「博雅 + 專業」教育模式，能裝備學生具備明辨思維、創新力、人際溝通與協作、人文關懷及持續主動學習五項核心可轉移素質。在這裏，你們可透過眾多的學習機會提升這些素質和累積智慧，在未來的日子發光發亮。

我相信大學教育的目的不僅是教導學生專業知識和技能以準備未來就業。更重要的是裝備學生使他們能自信地應對未來工作和生活中的挑戰，成為一個全面且負責任的世界公民，獲得滿足感。

Welcome to the HSU family!
This year’s New Student Orientation theme carries forward the spirit of last year’s “HSUnity” while ushering in a new chapter – “Wisdom.”
The theme “HSUnity – Wisdom” symbolises HSUHK as a diverse and inclusive intellectual community.
At HSUHK, we celebrate diversity, value every voice, and view the experiences of each member of the HSUHK community as a driving force for our collective growth.
At HSUHK, we acquire knowledge and accumulate wisdom. In this new era of artificial intelligence, demonstrating the wisdom to discern right from wrong, uphold ethical values, and creatively leverage technology is more important than ever.
Inside Out 2 is one of the most popular recent films, offering insightful perspectives on the role of emotions in our lives. Wisdom isn’t just about intellectual growth; it also involves understanding and recognising our emotional landscape, blending intellectual and emotional development. Every emotion, whether it be Joy, Sadness, Fear, Anger, Disgust, Envy, Embarrassment, or Ennui, has its purpose and value. At HSUHK, you will encounter many new challenges. Feel and understand your emotions, allowing them to be the key to self-understanding. We will support you every step of the way and witness your transformation.
Wisdom comes from the pursuit of knowledge, reflection on diverse perspectives, and learning from every experience and emotion. Embrace challenges and dare to explore. We hope that at HSUHK, you will not only achieve academic success but also grow into a wise, compassionate, and all-rounded individual.
Let us create shared experiences together!
歡迎各位加入香港恒生大學的大家庭！
本年度的迎新活動主題具繼往開來的意味，既承接去年「HSUnity」這主題，同時開啟了新篇章 – 「Wisdom（智）」。
「HSUnity – Wisdom」這主題在於展現恒大是一個多元與共融的知性社群。
我們欣賞多樣性、重視每個人的聲音、同時也視每位「恒大人」的經歷為集體成長的力量。
我們獲取知識，累積智慧。在這個人工智能的新世代，能夠展現出辨別是非、堅守道德價值觀並具創意地善用科技的智慧尤為重要。
《玩轉腦朋友2》是近期很受歡迎的電影之一，當中對於情感在生活中的角色很有啟發性。智慧不僅僅是智力上的成長，它還包括理解和認識我們的情感世界，是智力和情感成長結合。每種情感，不論是快樂、悲傷、恐懼、憤怒、厭惡、嫉妒、尷尬還是厭倦，都有其目的和價值。在恒大，相信你會遇到許多新的挑戰，好好地感受和認識你的情感，讓它們成為理解自己的鑰匙。我們會在每一步中支持你，見證你的蛻變。
智慧來自對知識的追尋、來自對各種觀點的反思、來自對每個經歷和情感的學習。擁抱挑戰，勇於探索。期盼大家不僅在學術上有所得着，還能成為一個明智、具關懷心和全面發展的人。
在恒大，讓我們一起創造屬於大家的共同經歷。
