Our Colleges
United College was founded in 1956 through the amalgamation of five post-secondary colleges which were originally private universities in Guangzhou and its vicinity and which were closely related to higher education in Hong Kong. Through its various programmes, the College promotes innovation and the entrepreneurial spirit. College life places emphasis on moral education, environmental protection and health awareness. Its exchange programmes enable students to benefit from contact with their counterparts across the globe.
