About us
The Business Students’ Union represents all the business students of HKUST, therefore the design of the logo of Business Students’ union also means a lot to us – Business Students.
The center of the logo is a combination of the letters “B” and “S” representing Business Students. The combination means unity among all the business students. The background is an abstract of the entrance piazza, which represents Our University – HKUST. The entire logo was drawn in a three-dimensional view in order to give a feeling that with her open “arms”, UST is embracing the Business Students.
The combination of “B” and “S” is floating in the air. In addition, with the straight lines in behind, it brings out an idea that Business Students are taking off, pointing at the sky and soaring high.
The whole idea of the logo is that, under the embrace of UST, we grow up, develop and finally we challenge the world and build a better tomorrow for the people of Hong Kong and the world. – quoted from The BSU Annual Journal 1992, written by Leung Kwok Kuen.
Career Series 2026 – Phase 1
We are proud to present the Career Series 2026. Based on the Latin phrase, “Quo Vadis” which means, “Where are you going?” At Career Series 2026, we want to ask that same question: “Where are you going?” and “Where are we headed as a society?” We aim to provide a platform for future leaders to reflect deeply on matters crucial for their future career paths. Under the theme ‘Quo Vadis,’ this initiative is designed for students to broaden their horizons and enhance their personal growth through informative talks and engaging workshops.
