PolyU’s newest iconic landmark, the University Square, was officially opened on 10 November 2023.

Situated at the heart of the campus, the University Square is a lush green lawn that provides an engaging environment where students and staff can gather, collaborate, or unwind. It also plays a crucial role in fostering a sense of belonging and unity among all University members by infusing greenery and vitality into the campus.

To commemorate the opening of the University Square, an inauguration ceremony was held, officiated by Dr Lam Tai-fai, Council Chairman of PolyU, and Professor Jin-Guang Teng, President of PolyU. They unveiled a plaque symbolising the University’s commitment to providing an enriching, green and sustainable campus environment for the PolyU community. Dr Lam said, “We have built an oasis on campus for students to relax, meet friends, and hold activities which are all important in enriching school life.”

This joyful occasion was witnessed by members of the PolyU Council, Court, and PolyU Foundation Governing Committee, as well as the University’s management, staff, students, and alumni.

In the future, the University Square will serve as a significant venue, not only as a photo spot but also as a location for hosting events such as flag-raising ceremonies.
