HEYYou
Don't you miss the old days when we used to shop around the Atrium, findings clubs and activities to join for the year?
HEYCLUBS
Are you struggling to promote your activities, let alone recruit new members this year?

The Pandemic Has Changed Everything
Suspension in face-to-face learning since last year has stopped us from going back to our beautiful campus. Unlike class schedules that resumed quickly, many club activities have been put off, while many students lost the chance to enjoy the fun culture...
But don't worry, we are here to fix this issue!
What is VAtrium?
VAtrium is a mobile app started by a group of HKUST students to provide a virtual platform for:
​
-
HKUST student who are eager to have a taste of university life
-
Student clubs who are eager in reaching out to more potential members
Why use VAtrium?
