Li Sing Scientific and Industrial College was founded in 1905. Walter Fong (鄺華汰) was the principal of this college[1]. The founder considered that the objectives of this college are to raise China from her low industrial condition and to educate her sons in modern science and industry, and train them to use their hands as well as their brains.[2]
This college had enrolled over 70 students. However, only 35 students remained at the end of course because of high dropout rate.[2]
