HKUST Business School MSc

Learning Hub

Empowering Future Business Leaders through Innovation and Sustainability

The HKUST Business School MSc Learning Hub is a vibrant space where academic excellence meets real-world innovation, fostering a collaborative environment that empowers the next generation of business leaders. Situated in a strategically designed location, the goal is creating a flexible and dynamic learning hub. The interior accommodates a variety of activities such as classes, group discussions, seminars, and networking events.

The hub's design focuses on sustainability, using low VOC materials, recycled carpets, and abundant greenery. One of the key features is the "Legacy of Acacia Woods," a wall installation crafted from repurposed Acacia Confusa trees from their campus, reflecting HKUST's commitment to heritage and environmental stewardship. Strong branding throughout the hub ensures a consistent and inspiring connection to HKUST, making it a true extension of the university.

Highlights:

  1. Flexible and Dynamic Spaces: The hub features movable furniture and operable walls, supporting over 20 unique configurations, from classes, group discussions and workshops to social functions and seminars.

  2. Private and Collaborative Areas: Strategically placed solo workstations and private breakout rooms, along with bookable phone booths, provide options for both focused study and collaboration.

  3. Sustainable Design: The hub's commitment to sustainability is evident in its use of low VOC materials, recycled carpets, and the incorporation of abundant greenery to promote wellness. The "Legacy of Acacia Woods" installation stands as a testament to this dedication.

  4. Strong Branding: Visually impactful backdrops in key areas like the open learning lounge and social networking zones ensure the space is perfect for videos and photos, reinforcing its connection to HKUST and making it an inspiring place for students and staff alike.
