Established in Academic Year 2025/26, the Dr Wilfred Wong Scholarship reflects Dr. Wong's commitment to nurturing future talent and supporting students in their pursuit of academic excellence, leadership, and personal growth. The inaugural cohort of scholarship recipients had the valuable opportunity to meet Dr. Wong in person and gain a deeper understanding of the aspirations behind his generous support of HKUST students.

Beyond the establishment of the scholarship, Dr. Wong engaged directly with students through a sharing session, where he spoke about his personal journey, professional experiences, and leadership insights accumulated throughout his distinguished career. Drawing on his extensive experience in both the public and private sectors, he encouraged students to embrace challenges, remain resilient in the face of setbacks, and pursue lifelong learning.

The gathering provided a valuable platform for open dialogue and meaningful exchanges. Students actively participated in discussions, gaining firsthand insights into leadership, career development, and personal growth while learning from Dr. Wong's experiences and perspectives. The session also offered students an opportunity to connect with Dr. Wong on a personal level and seek advice on their future aspirations.

HKUST extends its heartfelt gratitude to Dr. Wong for his generous support of the University and his dedication to student development. Through both the establishment of the Dr Wilfred Wong Scholarship and his personal engagement with students, Dr. Wong has made a meaningful contribution to enriching the student experience and inspiring the next generation of leaders.
