Chia-Wei Woo (traditional Chinese: 吳家瑋; simplified Chinese: 吴家玮; pinyin: Wú Jiāwěi; 13 November 1937 – 2 March 2025) was a Hong Kong physicist and educator who was the inaugural president of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. His work included raising funding and recruiting outstanding faculty for the university. With Chung Sze Yuen, Woo created an institution, including a top-ranked Business School, known as the HKUST Business School. The school's MBA, EMBA and Executive Education programmes have been consistently ranked as Asia's top programmes, and in the World Top 50 MBA programmes by the Financial Times of London. Woo retired in 2001 after 13 years of service and remained President Emeritus as well as University Professor Emeritus.
