The Macau University of Science and Technology (MUST) (Portuguese: Universidade de Ciência e Tecnologia de Macau; Traditional Chinese: 澳門科技大學; Simplified Chinese: 澳门科技大学) is located in the Macau S.A.R. on the Cotai Strip opposite the Venetian Macau on Taipa Island, next to the Macau International Airport. It is a private institution managed by the MUST Foundation and the first college established after the turnover of Macau to the People’s Republic of China. The university offers full-time and part-time programs.
MUST occupies 212,000 square meters. The land and many of its state-of-the-art facilities have been donated to the school by the government while several MUST investors are among the highest ranks of officials. The Olympic-standard stadium and a football field are available to the students and the public.
The General Studies programs, the School of Graduate Studies and the School of Continuing Studies offer a broad range of programs. MUST is authorized to award Ph.D. degrees, master degrees and bachelor degrees in their residence programs. The university enrolls 5,000 full-time students. MUST recruits students from all over the world as well as 20 provinces and cities in China for its undergraduate and graduate programs.
In 2006, the university opened a hospital, known locally as MUST Hospital. The hospital is in the Cotai area of Macau and has major interests in Western medicine and Chinese traditional medicine.
