This is a series of public lectures by the faculty from HKUST to share with the increasingly better educated public in Hong Kong the advanced knowledge in the domain of multidisciplinary humanities, which is for the public, of the public, and by the public.
 
隨著香港社會專上及持續教育的普及，學術知識越來越成為公眾知情權的重要內容。學術知識貴在創新，但新知自應造福人群。人文學科美於人情，而話語豈宜黌宮獨唱。香港科技大學人文學部因與香港歷史博物館合設科大人文新語講座系列，期與公眾共享文史哲等多元領域的人文學術研究成果。
