HKBU emblem

The Emblem consists of three pictorial elements: the Bible, waves and knots.

The Bible symbolises the unique quality of Christian education which includes moral and spiritual training in addition to academics.

The waves, on the other hand, symbolise both Hong Kong's geographic nature as an island, echoing Confucius' dictum that the "the wise love water" and the University's continuing effort to improve its educational quality.

Knots, the final symbol, illustrate that within God's embrace, Christians are harmoniously linked.
