The Faculty of Medicine, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, branded as CU Medicine, is the medical school of the Chinese University of Hong Kong, a public research university. Established in 1981 as Hong Kong's second medical school, the faculty consists of five schools offering undergraduate and postgraduate programmes, including in the fields of medicine, nursing, pharmacy, and traditional Chinese medicine.[1] The Prince of Wales Hospital is the faculty's teaching facility and base of research.

The faculty remains to be one of the two medical faculties in Hong Kong, along with the older LKS Faculty of Medicine of the University of Hong Kong. They are the only two tertiary institutions which offer medicine and pharmacy education in the city. The CUHK Faculty of Medicine has been ranked as one of the top 50 medical schools in the world, despite its short history of 35 years as of 2016.[2]
