香港中文大學（深圳）是由香港中文大學與深圳大學，根據《中外合作辦學條例》而組建的從事高等教育研究的機構。

我們創辦香港中文大學（深圳）的目的有兩個方面，一方面，我們希望移植香港中文大學幾十年來成功的辦學模式到祖國內地，這里包括優秀的辦學理念，成熟的管理機制和嚴格的學術體系；另一方面，我們希望能為祖國內地包括珠三角地區培養一批有國際視野的，有社會擔當的，新一代創新型專業人才。為國家和地區的經濟社會發展作出貢獻，為國家的高等教育改革作出貢獻，也為珠三角和香港地區的長期穩定發展作出貢獻。

香港中文大學（深圳）實行理事會領導下的校長負責制。民主管理學校，充分尊重學術自由。繼承香港中文大學的學術傳統，結合傳統與現代，融合中國與西方，實行中英雙語教學，書院制和通識教學，培養學生的跨領域，跨文化的創新型國際專業人才。
