2 To make the year 2024 even more pleasing, HKBU has scored notable triumphs in fields such as Chinese medicine, art technology and transdisciplinary education. For instance, HKBU students and alumni achieved an impressive tally at the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games by clinching three gold medals and one silver, fully demonstrating the Hong Kong spirit of never giving up. HKBU also performed creditably in globally influential university rankings, in several of which we attained the best levels in more than a decade. For example, in the Times Higher Education (THE) Impact Rankings 2024, HKBU rose to the 101-200th band and ranked second globally for “SDG 4: Quality Education”, underscoring its commitment to providing inclusive and equitable education. Beyond doubt, these distinguished accomplishments are not only heartening but also important sources of encouragement to the whole HKBU community. 喜上加喜的是，年內大學捷報頻傳，在中醫 藥研發、藝術科技和跨學科教育方面都有 矚目的表現。例如，多位浸大學生及校友 運動員在今屆巴黎奧運會及殘奧會中，共奪 得三金一銀的驕人成績，盡顯「永不放棄」 的香港精神。此外，浸大在多個具影響力的 全球大學排名榜中，創下逾10年來的最佳 成績。在「2024年度泰晤士高等教育大學 影響力排名」中，浸大上升至101-200位， 在實現聯合國可持續發展目標的「優質 教育」一項中，更高踞全球第二位。得到 外界的肯定，反映浸大致力提供包容和公平 的優質教育，令大學上下鼓舞不已。 Chairman’s Report 主席報告 The year 2024 was a fruitful one for Hong Kong Baptist University (HKBU). It was also a special year, celebrating the 15th anniversary of the Hong Kong Baptist University Foundation (the Foundation). In addition to the array of celebratory events, a series of short videos were produced to showcase the Foundation’s achievements over the years. These included advancing HKBU’s strategic development, launching innovative initiatives, fostering exceptional research, and enriching teaching and learning as well as the community services that HKBU offers. The year 2024 was also an important milestone for HKBU – the 30th anniversary of HKBU achieving University status. Witnessing HKBU successfully transforming from a private college into a respected liberal arts university in three decades of solid progress, we could not be more excited and gratified. 2024年是香港浸會大學（浸大）喜迎豐收的一年。年內，香港浸會大學基金（基金）誌慶15周年，舉辦了連串慶祝活動， 並透過一系列回顧短片，展示基金在推進大學策略發展、推動前瞻性項目、促進卓越研究、豐富教與學及服務社會等多 方面取得的成果。此外，本年也是浸大正名為大學的30周年紀念。浸大自1994年邁過這個重要里程後，竿頭直上，由 昔日的私立學府，躍升為一所備受推崇的博雅大學，實在令人欣喜。
