Quality and utility underscore our efforts and this has been recognised in several ways. Our staff have published in many respected, high-impact and peer-reviewed international journals and received high honours both in mainland China and overseas.
Our research excellence has again enabled us to assume
the position of the most successful university in Hong Kong
in terms of securing competitive research funding from the
Research
Grants Council (RGC). In 2006 the University was awarded HK$146 million, which accounts for 30% of the total funding allocated to all eight local universities. The University has received a total of HK$1,276 million in RGC grants since 1991, more than any other tertiary institution in the territory.
The research output of the University's academic staff is substantial. More than 6,700 items of research output were published during 2005-06; many of them in international journals, and over 70% were refereed.
