National Pingtung University (NPTU) was formed on August 1, 2014, through the merger of National Pingtung University of Education and National Pingtung Institute of Commerce. It has four campuses: Minsheng Campus, Pingshi Campus, and Pingshang Campus, all located in Pingtung City with convenient transportation. There is also the Checheng Campus located in Checheng Township, Pingtung County.
Our school was formerly the Pingtung Normal School of Taiwan Governor-General’s Office, founded in April 1940, and the National Pingtung College of Commerce, founded in 1991. After the merger, there are 7 colleges, 30 departments, 1 institute, and 8 degree programs. In addition, there is an affiliated experimental elementary school, making it the only national university with the diverse characteristics of higher education, vocational education, and teacher training.
