CONNEct With nature

Located in Clear Water Bay, HKUST is home to a diverse array of flora and fauna, including over 2,300 trees from 127 species, 75 species of birds, and 100 species of butterflies. We encourage our campus community to engage with nature in their daily lives—whether it's taking a walk through our green spaces, enjoying the seafront, or simply taking a moment to appreciate your surroundings. Spending time in nature and fostering appreciation can positively impact both physical and mental health.
