9月5日,香港中文大学(深圳)举行2026年入学典礼。来自世界各地的5000余名本科生和研究生(含450名国际本科新生)齐聚神仙湖畔,开启崭新的学术旅程。
香港中文大学(深圳)理事长、香港中文大学校长卢煜明教授在讲话中勉励新生把握国家战略、全球参与与科技创新的交汇时代,将学习延伸至课堂之外。他以“凡事预则立,不预则废”引言,建议新生及早确立方向、以习惯塑造品格,并提出三点期望:依托深港生态敢于突破创新、主动担当全球公民责任、浸润书院社区践行“博文约礼”校训,勉励大家珍惜大学时光,成长为心系世界的栋梁之才。
徐扬生校长、各位同事、亲爱的同学们:
欢迎大家加入香港中文大学(深圳),开启一段充满蜕变与成长的全新旅程。
今天,非常高兴与大家相聚于此,与2000多名本科生和3000多名研究生所洋溢的蓬勃朝气和青春活力。今年,我们迎来了来自中国内地、香港、澳门和台湾的1700多名本科新生,以及450名国际学生。如今,国际学生在本科新生中的占比已经超过了五分之一。我期待着你们能在港中深的学习与生活中不断成长,成为具有全球视野、深植中华文化根脉,并始终心怀社会责任的创新型领袖。
各位同学,你们加入港中深,正值国家、深圳和大学发展的重要时期。
首先,国家正式迈入“十五五”新征程。这一国家战略框架明确了2026至2030年中国在高水平科技自立自强、绿色发展和经济转型等方面的发展路径。
其次,深圳将作为主办城市迎来2026年亚太经合组织(APEC)领导人非正式会议。届时,来自亚太地区的各国领导人和工商界代表将齐聚深圳,共商区域发展大计。本次会议主题确定为“建设亚太共同体,促进共同繁荣”,并聚焦开放、创新与合作三大优先领域,充分彰显了对话与协作在塑造区域未来中的重要作用。
与此同时,港中大发布了
《中大2026‒2030:腾跃新程,励行志远》全新策略计划,旨在进一步提升学校在区域、国家乃至全球层面的影响力。
这一系列重要发展彼此呼应,而你们也恰逢其时,来到国家战略、全球交流与科技创新交汇的深圳。你们的学习将远不止于课堂之内。
正如战略路线图为大学指引发展方向,为自己的人生制定蓝图同样重要。中国有一句古语:“凡事预则立,不预则废。”这句话所蕴含的深刻智慧,与英文谚语“Failing
to prepare is preparing to
fail”有着异曲同工之妙。同学们,我希望你们从现在开始,学会以战略性的眼光思考自己的人生。人生由一连串的选择铺就:重复的行动会固化为习惯,习惯塑造品格,而品格决定命运。请有意识地确立自己的人生方向。思考自己希望成为什么样的人,然后选择与之相契的习惯、同行者与人生道路。
当你们规划自己的人生旅程时,请把握三个难得的机遇:
第一,拥抱中国日新月异的发展变化。
在深圳求学,你们将直接接触中国的创业与科技生态。要有勇气问一句“为什么不可以?”,要敢于突破传统学科的边界。
在人工智能时代,既要掌握技术,也要发挥人类独有的优势。机器学习可以将重复性工作自动化,而人类智慧则让我们拥有同理心、道德敏感性,以及批判性思考的能力。请不断培养这些能力,让科技始终成为服务于人类的工具。
第二,主动担当全球公民的责任。
气候变化、人工智能伦理、粮食安全和不平等,是本世纪最为关键的议题,需要跨国协作来应对。
在港中深,与来自不同文化背景的同学交流互动,培养跨文化敏感度,跨越差异、增进彼此理解。将你们的思想与创意转化为服务共同福祉的现实解决方案。
第三,积极融入我们独具特色的书院社区。
你们所在的书院,将为你们的生活、学习和成长提供充分支持。通过体育活动、文化项目和服务,践行大学校训“博文约礼”。充分发挥全人教育的作用,在拓展学识与才智的同时,塑造自己的品格。
亲爱的同学们,希望你们把大学当作自己的第二个家。愿你们在这里学到的知识、结下的情谊,都能伴随你们走得更远,并在未来的人生旅程中始终助你们成长。
愿你们在港中深度过的每一刻都充实而有意义。以明确的目标和坚定的方向,走好未来的人生道路,并始终将社区、国家和世界的需求放在首位。
欢迎你们加入香港中文大学(深圳)这个大家庭!
Professor Xu, dear colleagues and students:
It is truly my pleasure to welcome you to The Chinese
University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen, as you begin this
transformative journey of personal growth. I have looked
forward to joining you today, surrounded by the energy
of over 2,000 undergraduate students and 3,000
postgraduate students. This year, we welcome over 1,700
undergraduates spanning the Chinese Mainland, Hong Kong,
Macao, and Taiwan, alongside 450 international students,
who now make up one fifth of our undergraduate freshmen
cohort. I am eager to see how your time at CUHK-Shenzhen
shapes you into innovative leaders with a global
perspective, deep roots in Chinese cultural traditions,
and a genuine commitment to social responsibility.
You join CUHK-Shenzhen at a time when important
developments are taking place in our country, in
Shenzhen, and at the University.
First, our country is launching its 15th Five-Year
Plan — the national policy framework for 2026 to 2030
that sets China’s trajectory for technological
self-reliance, green development, and economic
transformation.
Second, Shenzhen will host APEC 2026—the Asia-Pacific
Economic Cooperation summit that brings together leaders
and business representatives from across the
Asia-Pacific region. Its theme, “Building an
Asia-Pacific Community to Prosper Together”, and its
priorities of openness, innovation, and cooperation,
reflect the importance of dialogue and collaboration in
shaping the region’s future.
Third, CUHK has launched its 2026–2030 Strategic Plan:
Leaping to Greatness, to advance our regional, national,
and global impact.
This alignment places you in a city where national
strategy, global engagement, and technological
innovation meet. Your learning will extend far beyond
the classroom.
Just as a strategic roadmap guides the University,
crafting a blueprint for your own life is equally
important. There is a profound wisdom in the Chinese
saying “凡事预则立,不预则废” resonates well with the English
idiom: “Failing to prepare is preparing to fail.” Apply
strategic thinking early. Life builds on a chain of
decisions: repeated actions solidify into habits, habits
forge character, and character determines destiny. Set
your compass intentionally. Decide who you want to
become and choose the habits, relationships, and paths
that lead there.
As you map out your journey, seize three extraordinary
opportunities:
First, embrace China's rapid transformation. Studying
in Shenzhen connects you directly to the country’s
startup and technological ecosystem. Acquire the courage
to ask "Why not?" and break past traditional academic
boundaries. In an era of artificial intelligence,
balance technical mastery with uniquely human strengths.
Machine learning automates routine tasks; human
intelligence provides empathy, moral sensitivity, and
critical reasoning. Develop these qualities so that
technology remains a tool that serves humanity.
Second, step up as a global citizen. The defining
issues of our century — climate change, AI ethics, food
security, and inequality — require transnational
cooperation. At CUHK-Shenzhen, engage with peers across
diverse backgrounds, develop cultural sensitivity and
bridge differences. Channel your ideas into real-world
solutions that serve the common good.
Third, immerse yourself in our unique collegiate
community. Your College offers a supportive environment
to live, learn, and grow. Through sports, cultural
projects, and service, embody our University motto:
“Through Learning and Temperance to Virtue”(「博文約禮」). Use
this holistic education to build character alongside
intellect.
Dear students, I hope you will regard the University
as your second home. Let the lessons you learn and the
connections you make here take you far and serve you
well throughout your journey. Make every moment you
spend at CUHK-Shenzhen count. Navigate your future with
purpose and direction by prioritising the needs of the
community, the country and the world.
Welcome to the CUHK-Shenzhen family!
