HKUST has a well-established system, policies and processes to support knowledge transfer (KT) activities at different stage of development through the Technology Transfer Center (TTC), the Entrepreneurship Center (EC), and the HKUST R and D Corporation Ltd. (RDC). To further enhance the culture and practice of KT and improve coordination within the whole University, the new position of Associate Vice-President for Knowledge Transfer (AVP-KT) has been established since April 2014.
The AVP-KT oversees the TTC, EC and RDC and is charged to facilitate, promote, and support knowledge transfer through integration with our education and research programs, to empower faculty and to nurture students for making positive and significant impact to society via knowledge transfer.
