Development Projects
Hang Seng Management College has been embarking on a long-term development plan with the goal of becoming a leading private university since 2010. We have expanded a green campus which offers state-of-the-art learning, teaching, research and residential facilities to meet the needs and demands of quality tertiary education in the 21st century.
The development is divided into three phases.
Phase One
Block A – Construction for the S H Ho Academic Building was completed and opened on 17 September 2012.
Block B – Construction for the Sports and Amenities Centre was completed on 17 October 2013 and opened for operation in phases from November 2013.
HSUHK Plaza (the front portion of Site C1) serves as the open plaza with a green courtyard, clock tower, and water cascade, opened for use on 5 March 2014.
Site F – HSUHK Jockey Club Student Residence Halls
HSMC is grateful for the Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust for the donation of HK$200 million towards the construction cost of the HSMC Jockey Club Student Residence Halls, about 1,200 students will be accommodated in these 3 blocks of residence halls. The site is well situated on the hillside to enjoy a green vista of plants and trees within a short walkway distance uphill from the main campus. There will be about 400 student quarters in this hostel complex, 3 to 4 students will share a quarter with a built-in washroom and shower unit.
As a succession of the entire campus theme design, this Site F hostel development shall continue its architectural design features same as Block A to Block D. Part of the facade will be constructed of window wall and terracotta cladding system. Over 30% of site will be covered by soft landscape including vertical greens and green roofs. This site is located on two levels of vista green plateau, surrounded by three sides of trees and bamboo bush slopes at the back, the hostel development portion facing South enjoys full open unobstructed view of Tate’s Cairn Tunnels entrance runway with a natural ecological surrounds at the back, which forms a natural environmental contrast.
Awarded by Hong Kong Green Building Council, the student residence halls achieved Platinum rating in Provisional Assessment of the BEAM Plus Assessment Scheme. The residence halls will have concentrated PV panels installed at roof top as an alternative electricity power supply for hostels’ common corridors, general lighting and part of hot water power supply.
Key Card System will also be adopted as the main tool for student residents to gain access to the main entrance doorways of the halls, entrance doors of each block and residential unit. It will also be used for paying the unit’s air-conditioning electricity consumption and usage of self-service laundries.
To promote students’ hall life, there will be a communal hall, study room, pigeon holes and security counter, storage at the ground floor and laundry areas at the lower ground floor of each block. In addition, an outdoor recreation ground will be furnished to cater for student activities.
The Student Residence Halls are expected to be completed by August 2015.
Phase Two
Site C1 – Upon completion of the Student Residence Halls at Site F, the existing staff quarters and student hostels can be decanted to pave way for this Phase Two development. In its place, a new composite complex with a large classroom podium will be built to cater for future needs.
Phase Three
Site C2 – The existing main building can be further modified to pave way for this Phase Three development. It will link to the new composite complex with a large classroom podium to cater for future needs at Site C1.
Phase Two and Phase Three of development are targeted to be completed by 2019 subject to availability of funds.
