HUST has consistently ranked among the top 10 universities in China in the major domestic and international rankings, including US News and World Report Best Global Universities Ranking. International cooperation always lies at the core of HUST development strategy.
HUST boasts a full range of academic disciplines, comprising 10 major categories that range from engineering and medicine to its fast-growing science and distinctive liberal arts disciplines, and is the only university in China that includes four national research facilities.
HUST is comprised of its main campus close by picturesque East Lake and a satellite medical campus located in the central business district of Hankou across the Yangtze River. Complementing this rich academic environment is HUST’s remarkable greenscape – covering 72% of the campus, its rich canopy of trees explains why many people now refer to it as the “university in the forest.”
