办学规模 University Scale
学校开展全日制本科和研究生教育，形成本硕博贯通式培养体系，预计2030年达到在校生10000人左右，本科生与研究生规模比例预计达1:1左右。
GBU provides full-time undergraduate and postgraduate programs with a through training system covering bachelors, masters and doctors. By 2030, it is expected to accommodate about 10,000 students, with an anticipated ratio of undergraduates to graduate students of approximately 1:1.
学生培养 Student Cultivation
针对本科生，首批设置数学与应用数学、物理学、计算机科学与技术、材料科学与工程和工业工程等5个本科专业，实行大类招生，分类培养，并对理学和工学等学科门类制定差异化的人才培养方案。
For our inaugural batch of undergraduate programs, we have introduced majors in mathematics & applied mathematics, physics, computer science & technology, materials science & engineering, and industrial engineering. GBU employs a broad-based admission strategy, followed by specialized training, and has developed differentiated talent development plans for disciplines such as physical and engineering sciences.
针对研究生，按照先期开办学科方向开展先导培养，已与中山大学、哈尔滨工业大学(深圳)、南方科技大学、深圳大学、广州大学等高校联合培养硕士、博士共计100余人，并同步推进与北京大学深圳研究生院、香港中文大学、香港科技大学、澳门大学等高校开展联合培养博士研究生工作。
For postgraduate students, GBU has initiated a pilot training program in selected disciplines. We have collaborated with prestigious institutions such as Sun Yat-sen University, Harbin Institute of Technology (Shenzhen), Southern University of Science and Technology, Shenzhen University, and Guangzhou University to jointly train over 100 masters and doctoral students. Meanwhile, we are advancing collaborative doctoral training efforts with the Peking University Shenzhen Graduate School, the Chinese University of Hong Kong, the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, and the University of Macau.
校园建设 Campus Construction
按照“一校两区”开展规划建设，总占地面积约2356亩，总建筑面积约100万平方米。其中松山湖校区256亩，滨海湾校区2100亩，两校区共同承载“教育教学”“科教产融合”“国际合作”三大功能。
As planned, GBU has two campuses covering a total land area of approximately 2,356 mu and a built area of about 1 million square meters, including the 256-mu Songshan Lake Campus and the 2,100-mu Binhaiwan Bay Campus. Both campuses collectively support three major functions: education & teaching, research-education-industry integration, and international cooperation.
松山湖校区主要建设与综合性国家科学中心有关的大科学装置、新型研发机构融合办学的学科领域，设立相关领域研究院和科研平台，同时满足办学初期需求。
Songshan Lake Campus mainly focuses on constructing disciplines that take full advantage of the large-scale scientific facilities and new R&D institutions related to the GBA Comprehensive National Science Center, sets up relevant field-specific research institutes and scientific platforms, and serves to meet GBU’s early-stage demands.
滨海湾校区同步启动，主要满足本科生和研究生培养、产学研合作和国际合作、创新创业孵化以及行政办公等。
Binhaiwan Bay Campus, developed concurrently, primarily caters to undergraduate and graduate education, facilitates industry-university-research collaboration and international cooperation, supports innovation and entrepreneurship incubation, and provides administrative offices.
