CUHK plans new medical building and college in Pak Shek Kok

The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) has designated a site in Pak Shek Kok for the development of a new medical building and its tenth college. This expansion aims to enhance the university's research capacity, with plans to include more hostel facilities to combat the drag of high housing costs on the research sector. The location near the Hong Kong Science and Technology Park is expected to benefit from improved transport links, including a new East Rail line station slated for 2033. AI
