Wu Yee Sun College has been established since 2007 by the generous support of the Wu Yee Sun Charitable Foundation Limited. Foundation Stone Laying Ceremony of the College was held on 9 June 2010. The College will admit about 1200 students in total.  The first cohort of around 300 students under new 334 curriculum joined the College in September 2012.

To complement the academic training offered by the various faculties and departments, the College proudly carries the collegiate tradition – a hallmark of a CUHK undergraduate education – in providing students with comprehensive whole-person education and pastoral care, thereby developing them into learned and upright leaders and citizens in the society.



The College motto is 'Scholarship and Perseverance'. Through its diverse programmes of general education, college student life, as well as cultural and overseas exchanges, the College aims to broaden students' horizons (scholarship), and encourage them to forge ahead (perseverance) in making contributions to the society and leading a productive and rewarding life.



In support to the College mission of 'Entrepreneurial Spirit with Social Responsibility', the College creates an intimate and dynamic learning atmosphere, students will develop the drive for social entrepreneurship: a passion for creativity and innovation, and acumen in pursuing new projects and ideas, not just for personal gain but for the common good.


The publicity name of Wu Yee Sun College is 'The Sunny College': half word-play on Dr. Wu's name and half the College vision. May the College and its members radiate positive energy and be a passionate force that makes the world a better place.
