About the Scheme
Since our establishment in 1963, the Faculty has nurtured countless generations of science talents, who have moved on to build careers in a wide range of professions around the world.
The Science Faculty has over 8,000 alumni residing outside Hong Kong(1). As part of the Faculty’s efforts to encourage fostering lasting connections with our alumni diaspora, and to leverage this network for the mutual benefit of our alumni and students, a global alumni ambassador scheme was launched in 2025.
