CityUHK was approved by the Ministry of Education to admit up to 220 Mainland Chinese undergraduate students in 2024 through the Mainland's regular university admission process and procedures across 31 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions. All University colleges and schools – including the College of Business, College of Engineering, College of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences, College of Science, Jockey Club College of Veterinary Medicine and Life Sciences, School of Creative Media, School of Data Science, School of Energy and Environment, and School of Law – can admit Mainland Chinese undergraduate students through the early admission process.
CityUHK offers both research- and coursework-based postgraduate programmes. The research-based degree programmes include the Master of Philosophy (MPhil) and Doctor of Philosophy (PhD), which involve independent research under the guidance of a supervisor and the submission of a thesis. The coursework-based programmes provide a wide and diverse range of academic disciplines to cater for students' personal interests, professional aspirations and career development. Students receive innovative and in-depth education through taught courses, and some programmes may also require the completion of a project or dissertation to earn the degree.
The Ministry of Education officially approved the establishment of CityUHK(DG) on 16 April 2024. CityUHK(DG) initially launched four undergraduate programs: Computer Science and Technology, Intelligent Manufacturing Engineering, Materials Science and Engineering, and Energy and Power Engineering. It also opened several graduate programmes covering a diverse and broad range of disciplines to cater for students' personal interests, professional aspirations and career development. The courses are scheduled to begin in September 2024.
