Outstanding PolyU Alumni

The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) and its forerunners have, over the years, sent forth more than 477,000 graduates, who have contributed their professional knowledge to the continued development of society and the world.

Launched in 1996, the Outstanding PolyU Alumni Award aims to give recognition to distinguished graduates of PolyU for great distinction in their chosen fields, active support to their alma mater, as well as impactful contributions to the wider community.

Since 2022, achievement categories have been established to celebrate considerable accomplishments of our alumni in specific areas, including professional achievement, entrepreneurial achievement, scholarly achievement, and community service achievement. Recognition is now also given to outstanding young alumni.  The Award is organised at Department, Faculty/School and University levels.
