PolyU West Kowloon campus Yau Ma Tei, Kowloon
Hong Kong Community College (HKCC) is an affiliated and financially self-supporting college of the Hong Kong Polytechnic University, a public research university in Hong Kong. Initially located on the PolyU campus, HKCC now has two campuses separated from the university.
HKCC offers associate degree and higher diploma programmes spanning the domains of arts, science, social sciences, business and the specialised areas of design and health studies for secondary school leavers.
With a floor area totalling over 57000 sqm, the two campuses provide teaching and recreational facilities, including lecture theatres, classrooms, a library, a computer centre, multi-purpose rooms, halls, sky gardens, a cafeteria and communal areas. Since its establishment, HKCC has helped over 36,600 graduates matriculate into bachelor's degree programmes.
History
The HKCC was first established in rented premises in 2001 and initially provided 800 self-financing sub-degree student places.
On 27 June 2003, the Finance Committee of Hong Kong's Legislative Council approved a loan to the Polytechnic University to be used to construct a campus for HKCC in Hung Hom.
To accommodate the growth of the college, a second campus was opened in Yau Ma Tei.
