Scholarships at HKBU: Opening pathways and shaping future
21 May 2026
Fuelled by the generosity of donors, HKBU offers a broad spectrum of scholarships to students. In the academic year 2024-2025, private donations made it possible to award nearly 1,159 scholarships and bursaries, amounting to about HK$19.2 million in total. These awards expand students’ learning opportunities and broaden their horizons, creating an impact that far exceeds expectations and benefits them for life.
Supported by a scholarship scheme, Teresa Eain Thazin Thant participated in the HKBU’s Extended Study Programme. She expressed her heartfelt gratitude to the donors for their benevolence and aspirations in empowering future leaders.
“Coming from Myanmar, my participation in the Extended Study Programme at Beijing Normal-Hong Kong Baptist University in Zhuhai was an eye-opening experience, one that I could never have imagined. By immersing myself in Chinese culture and exploring the Chinese Mainland’s rich traditions, innovative technology, and vibrant ecosystems, I have developed the critical thinking, problem-solving, and teamwork skills that will guide me throughout my life. This journey has inspired me to be a global citizen – one who embraces diversity and pursues dreams with confidence. I am deeply grateful to HKBU and the donors whose generosity has made this possible. Their support has empowered me to grow, explore, and make a meaningful difference in the future.”
