홍콩 – Media OutReach Newswire – 2026년 7월 13일 – 홍콩중문대학교(The Chinese University of Hong Kong, CUHK)가 ‘2027 QS 세계대학평가(Quacquarelli Symonds World University Rankings)’에서 지난해보다 14계단 상승한 세계 18위에 오르며 개교 이래 처음으로 세계 20위권에 진입했다. 이번 성과는 졸업생 평판도와 국제 연구 네트워크, 외국인학생 비율 등 주요 평가지표가 크게 향상된 데 힘입은 결과로, 외국인교수 비율 부문에서는 만점을 유지하며 국제 경쟁력을 다시 한번 입증했다.
홍콩중문대학교가 ‘QS 세계대학평가 2027’에서 전년보다 14계단 상승하며 처음으로 세계 20위권에 진입했다
CUHK의 학문적 우수성과 글로벌 연구 영향력
CUHK의 뛰어난 학문적 역량은 ‘US 뉴스 앤 월드 리포트(U.S. News & World Report)’가 발표한 ‘2026-2027 세계대학순위(Best Global Universities Rankings)’에서도 입증됐다. 이 평가에서 CUHK는 세계 28위, 아시아 5위를 기록해 4년 연속 홍콩 1위 대학의 자리를 지켰다. 전공별로는 총 15개 학문 분야가 50위권에 이름을 올렸으며 △교육 및 교육학 연구 (세계 1위) △소화기학·간장학 (세계 2위) △컴퓨터 과학 (세계 7위) △인문학 (세계 9위) △ 인공지능 (세계 9위) 등 5개 분야는 세계 10위 안에 들었다.
CUHK: 대담한 아이디어가 영향력 있는 연구로 실현되는 곳
CUHK는 약 300개의 연구소와 연구센터, 중국 과학기술부가 승인한 4개의 국가중점연구실(State Key Laboratories)을 발판으로 영향력 있는 연구를 수행할 수 있는 탁월한 환경을 제공하고 있다. 카자흐스탄 출신의 생명의과학(Biomedical Science) 박사과정 학생인 자밀리야 지레노바(Zhamilya Zhirenova)는 CUHK가 스웨덴 카롤린스카 연구소(Karolinska Institutet)와 공동 설립한 이노HK(InnoHK) 산하 신경근골격 재생의학센터(Centre for Neuromusculoskeletal Restorative Medicine, CNRM)에서 연구에 참여하며 전문성을 강화했다고 소개했다.
지레노바는 전통적인 연구 환경에서는 학생들이 한 대학 연구실에 머무는 경우가 많지만 본인은 산업 현장과 흡사한 역동적 환경인 홍콩사이언스파크(Hong Kong Science Park)에서 폭넓은 경험을 쌓을 수 있었다고 설명했다. 그는 “마치 기업에서 연구하는 듯한 경험이었고 매우 귀중한 시간이었다”고 회상했다. 학계를 넘어 산업 분야로 진출하려는 연구자들에게 생명공학 산업의 속도와 기대치를 미리 경험해 보는 것은 분명한 이점이다.
차세대 과학 혁신가 양성
CUHK에는 세계적으로 인정받는 연구자들이 재직하고 있으며, 이들은 각자의 분야에서 중요한 돌파구를 만들어 왔다. 이들은 학생들에게 수준 높은 멘토링과 지적 자극을 제공하며 도전적이고 혁신적인 연구환경을 조성하고 있다.
분자 진단 분야 이노HK 연구센터인 노보스틱스 센터(Centre for Novostics)에서 연구 중인 홍콩 출신의 화학병리학(Chemical Pathology) 박사과정 학생 야신 말키(Yasine Malki)는 CUHK에서의 경험 중 멘토링을 가장 중요한 요소로 꼽았다. 그는 분자 진단 분야의 선구자인 데니스 로(Dennis Lo) CUHK 총장의 지도 아래 분자 기술, 생물정보학 및 임상의학 분야 전문가들과 협력 연구를 수행하고 있다. 이는 의과학 연구에서 CUHK가 추구하는 역동적이고 융합적인 접근 방식을 잘 보여준다.
최신 세계대학평가 결과는 CUHK의 연구와 학문적 역량이 미치는 영향력을 또다시 입증했다.

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 10 July 2026 – The inaugural LEAP East 2026 was held at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (8-10 July), gathering more than 35,000 technology professionals, policymakers and investors from 30 countries and regions. The three-day event, the first LEAP summit staged outside Saudi Arabia, featured over 340 speakers, 450 exhibitors and over 400 investors, covering cutting-edge fields such as artificial intelligence, deep tech, smart cities and new energy industries.
“This turnout speaks volumes about the global appeal of LEAP East and the strength of our shared vision,” said Paul Chan, Financial Secretary of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government (HKSARG) at the opening ceremony of the event. “I am particularly delighted to note that this conference will continue to be held in Hong Kong in the coming three years.”
Other top government officials attending the opening ceremony included Professor Sun Dong, Secretary for Innovation, Technology and Industry of the HKSARG and Abdullah Alswaha, Minister of Communications and Information Technology of Saudi Arabia.
The event underscored the deepening partnership between Hong Kong and Saudi Arabia, and highlighted Hong Kong’s role as a unique gateway connecting the Chinese Mainland with the world.
“Hong Kong is perhaps the only city in the world that connects seamlessly to both the Chinese Mainland and the rest of the world at the same time,” Mr Chan said. “Working under the common law system, we have robust protection for intellectual property. As a free port, capital, goods, talent and data freely flow in and out of this city. Simple, low tax is a standing feature of our regime. And we are one of the safest, most stable cities anywhere in the world. These are the foundations on which businesses, talent and creativity thrive.”
Mr Chan invited Saudi and Gulf enterprises to use Hong Kong as an international fundraising and risk-management platform, and expressed the HKSAR’s commitment to further strengthening co-operation with Saudi Arabia in innovation, infrastructure, green technology, healthcare, advanced manufacturing and professional services.
“Innovation needs capital, and Hong Kong is where capital and ideas meet. This is the heart of our ‘Finance+’ strategy – using finance as a powerful enabler to drive the real economy,” Mr Chan said.

Since the launch of “Ink Cartridge Recycling Program” in 2009, Canon Hong Kong has invited the beloved local cartoon character, McDull, to serve as the program ambassador. With the ambition of cultivating the environmental awareness of the next generation, the program was extended to the education sector in 2011, calling on support from primary and secondary schools in the annual competition. Now in its 15th year, the program has reached an important milestone and received overwhelming responses from more than 300 organizations, housing estates, shopping malls, supermarkets and schools, all helping to set up recycling boxes to encourage the public to recycle used inkjet printer cartridges of all brands. To deepen students’ understanding and engagement with environmental issues, Canon Hong Kong has organized over 230 environmental seminars for participating schools, reaching over 70,000 students with messages about recycling and sustainable development. As of June 2026, over 295,000 ink cartridges were collected. Recycled ink cartridges were dismantled, while the metals and plastics were being recycled into raw materials for other products.
In the welcome speech at the ceremony, Ms. Candy Mau, Director of Corporate Communications and General Administration Division of Canon Hong Kong, affirmed the winning schools for their exemplar dedication in promoting recycling. A total of 8 schools were recognized in the category of “Highest No. of Recycled Ink Cartridges”.

She emphasized the importance of promoting environmental protection to the young generation from an early age and urged schools to build a better and sustainable society together by continuously promoting environmental education.
After the ceremony, Canon Hong Kong arranged a “Build Your Own Camera” STEAM parent-child workshop for the students and parents.
