Since its establishment in 1998, the School of Chinese Medicine at The Chinese University of Hong Kong has upheld the educational philosophy of placing equal emphasis on integrity and professional excellence. The School is committed to cultivating Chinese Medicine professionals with high ethical standards, comprehensive professional knowledge, and strong clinical competencies. Guided by this mission, the School is dedicated to serving the community and advancing the development of Chinese Medicine.

In recent years, the development of Chinese medicine in Hong Kong has reached a new milestone. With strong support from the Hong Kong SAR Government, the establishment of Hong Kong's first Chinese Medicine Hospital and the launch of the Chinese Medicine Development Blueprint have injected new impetus into clinical services, education and training, scientific research and innovation, as well as industry development, creating broader opportunities for continued development.

As a key educational hub for Chinese Medicine in Hong Kong, the School actively aligns itself with the development directions of both the nation and Hong Kong. Through the Belt and Road Alliance for Traditional Medicine established by the University, the School strengthens exchanges and collaborations with universities and institutions in Chinese Medicine, healthcare institutions, and research organisations around the world, advancing the international development of Chinese Medicine. These collaborations provide our students with a wide range of exchange and internship opportunities. Through such experiences, our students gain exposure to diverse approaches to the development of Chinese Medicine across different regions and schools of thought, broadening their global perspective and enhancing their professional competitiveness.

The School will continue to leverage its strengths in education, research, and clinical services, cultivating more Chinese Medicine professionals with a global outlook, an innovative spirit, and a strong commitment to serving the community, thereby contributing to the continued development of Chinese Medicine in Hong Kong, the nation and beyond.
