Established in 1989, Yuan Ze
University may be young by traditional standards, yet it has been recognized
as a model for newly emerging universities within the short 20 years. As the
first and the only university to win the National Quality Award in 2003,
Yuan Ze received an award from the Ministry of Education for the Teaching
Excellence Project in 2005. Successively, it has been designated by the MOE
as one of the top 12 universities in Taiwan, receiving an award for the ¡§Aim
for the Top University and Elite Research Center Development Project¡¨ since
2005. Granted with the highest honor in teaching, research and
administration, Yuan Ze has become a marvel of higher education, in Taiwan.
Currently Yuan Ze has five colleges
including the Colleges of Engineering, Informatics, Management, Humanities
and Social Sciences, and Electrical and Communications Engineering. There
are over 9,000 students with a 2:1 ratio between undergraduate and graduate
students on campus. Aimed at housing key research centers in Taiwan, our
Fuel Cell Center and Communications Research Centers have integrated all
resources and recruited talents in all engineering-related departments at
Yuan Ze through support from the Top Universities Project. With the success
of these two centers, Yuan Ze also places heavy focus on the promotion of
overall teaching and research capacity. The College of Management has
established the first EMBA program in Taiwan and all the courses in the
Graduate School of Management are conducted in English to further connect
our students to the international marketplace. The College of Informatics is
the first college in Taiwan to adopt information as the core for its
teaching and research. It emphasizes on practical experience with the
integration between technology and social studies. The College of Humanities
and Social Sciences is working closely with our College of General Studies
to promote teaching and research in humanities, general education, and
ethics.
Giving top priority to students in
the areas of teaching and counseling, Yuan Ze emphasizes education in both
creativity and ethics. Moreover, we are active in the nation¡¦s pioneering
¡§Classics 50 Reading Project,¡¨ ¡§YeSir Mentorship Program¡¨ and promote all
types of activities that will enrich students¡¦ extracurricular studies.
Founded by the Far Eastern Group, we have established close relationships
with all of its subsidiaries to form an industrial and academia alliance.
The internship plan for both domestic and international students can be
fully realized through such a network. Based on the unique niche Yuan Ze has
created, we provide added value to students and faculty members and expect
ourselves to be the benchmark university in industry-academia collaboration.
The main theme of the University¡¦s
development strategy emphasizes differentiation and internationalization.
Through differentiation in curriculum design and research, we will create
our distinguishing characteristics and brand; while in recruiting
outstanding foreign faculty and potential international students with
provision of favorable packages and scholarships/fellowships. The
International Language and Culture Center offers Mandarin and cultural
programs for international students; hosts various cultural activities; and
promotes cultural exchange on campus.
As the youngest and most energetic
university of Taiwan¡¦s Top universities, we will continue to fully utilize
our competitive advantages of ¡§innovation,¡¨ ¡§quality,¡¨ and ¡§flexibility.¡¨ We
provide a challenging environment for students to enjoy learning, develop
their potentials and surpass themselves; for faculty to devote themselves to
inspiring and mentoring their students and the pursuit of truth and academic
excellence; and for staff to promote the quality of service and fulfill
personal growth.
