Campus and Facilities

In order to provide our students with an environment conductive to learning, the University has invested in its campus environs, with modern classrooms, a library, laboratory facilities, student residence and other conveniences.

Library

Covering an area of 11,000 square metres, the Library at CityU has a seating capacity for 1,800 users. Its collection reaches the size of 889,500 volumes of books, 191,000 volumes of bound periodicals, 60,200 e-journals, 241,200 e-books (including e-dissertations) and 45,800 sets of audio visual materials. The Library also houses a law collection comprising legal materials from modern to historical, Eastern to Western. There are over 107,200 print volumes. All these materials are searchable on the online library catalogue. The Library is in recent years transforming from a traditional library into a Learning Commons. The Oval, Library Lounge, Leisure Corner, combined Reference and IT Help Desks are now open for public use. These newly renovated areas and infrastructure are designed to facilitate collaborative learning and provide support to high-end computer technology.

 

Computer Centres

Our computer centres offer the most sophisticated computer services to the students, academics and administrative staff at the university. The entire campus is equipped with a wireless network, and all parties are connected by the university’s intranet system, CTNET.

 

 

Lecture Theatres

The campus is outfitted with 18 lecture theatres, with audience capacities ranging from 120 to 300 persons. All theatres allow users to sign onto the school’s wireless network, and come equipped with advanced multimedia equipment, including video projectors, plasma-screen video-conferencing equipment, etc.

 

 

Sports Complex

Our five-storey multi-purpose hall serves as an indoor sports complex, providing quality venues and facilities to a variety of sporting events. Other facilities include physical fitness rooms, a 50-metre Olympic-standard swimming pool, an international-standard running track and a football pitch.
