Law

Since its establishment as a Department of Law in 1969, HKU Law has become a key incubator for some of the most distinguished legal professionals and community leaders in Hong Kong. It is a pivotal research hub in different areas of law connecting with Mainland China and the Asia-Pacific Region; and we actively share our knowledge with the community.

We could not have made far without contribution of generations of teachers and alumni; support from the University, the legal profession and the community; and of course philanthropic contributions from our donors.

In 2019, the Faculty celebrated its Golden Jubilee Celebration and established this Campaign, aiming to gear up for the next 50 years by

(i) enriching students’ lives;
(ii) empowering the community; and
(iii) enhancing the development of the Faculty.

Under this Campaign, financial aids to students in need, including but not limited to travel subsidy to exchange students and bursaries, would be set up.
