Beijing Normal–Hong Kong Baptist University (BNBU) was established in 2005 as a pioneering collaboration in higher education between mainland China and Hong Kong. Located in Zhuhai within the Guangdong–Hong Kong–Macao Greater Bay Area, BNBU is the first model liberal arts university in mainland China. With English as the medium of instruction, BNBU maintains academic standards aligned with international practices and has developed a comprehensive education and training system encompassing undergraduate, postgraduate, and postdoctoral programmes. The University is included in the Guangdong Provincial High-level University Development Plan and has established an Institute for Advanced Study led by academicians from the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Engineering.
BNBU actively recruits outstanding scholars worldwide and continues to strengthen its faculty and research capacity. The University ranks among the top 100 Chinese universities for high-level talent recruitment. Its faculty members come from approximately 40 countries and regions, with all academic staff possessing overseas study or professional experience. Nearly 90% hold doctoral degrees, and 17 scholars have been recognised among the world’s top 2% scientists.
Currently, two programmes (Statistics, Computer Science and Technology) have been designated as national first-class undergraduate programmes. Four disciplines (Statistics, Mathematics, Computer Science and Technology, and Communication) have been selected as key disciplines under the Guangdong Provincial High-level University Development initiative, and nine courses have been recognised as Guangdong Provincial first-class undergraduate courses. Building upon its key disciplines, BNBU successfully established postdoctoral programmes in Mathematics and Statistics in 2023, marking the first time that a Chinese-foreign cooperative university has been approved to establish postdoctoral programmes in China. The University has also established the Guangdong Provincial Key Laboratory of Interdisciplinary Research and Application for Data Science. With Mathematics and Statistics serving as the core supporting disciplines of the laboratory, it provides an important research platform for postdoctoral fellows to conduct high-level academic research. BNBU now warmly invites applications for postdoctoral positions from around the world and welcomes talented early-career scholars to join the University.
