Hong Kong Virtual University

Hong Kong Virtual University (HKVU, 香港虛擬大學), formerly known as Cyber University, began in 2001 and is a collaborative program funded by the Restructuring and Collaboration Fund of the University Grants Committee. It aims to provide a virtual campus for Hong Kong tertiary institutions and universities. The online courses offered by the HKVU can be taken by students who either study in or will enter these institutions. The courses are jointly provided by the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, the City University of Hong Kong, the Lingnan University, the Hong Kong Institute of Education, and the University of Hong Kong. These courses cover four areas: general education, information technology, language, and science and education.
