The College of Science and Engineering focuses on cultivating talent in three major areas: infrastructure, technology, and public livelihood.

Infrastructure: Local development cannot progress without civil engineering expertise. The Department of Civil Engineering and Engineering Management at National Quemoy University has a long history. From the Kinmen Bridge to other major construction projects, professionals from this department have provided essential technical consultation and support.

Technology: The Departments of Electronic Engineering and Computer Science and Information Engineering nurture talent for high-tech industries, with teaching emphases on artificial intelligence (AI), augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), big data, and robotics to meet the demands of future markets.

Public Livelihood: The Department of Food Science plays a key behind-the-scenes role in upgrading Kinmen Kaoliang Liquor and local livelihood industries. With strong capabilities in food processing, testing, and extraction technologies, as well as specialized courses in liquor evaluation and brewing, the department is distinguished by its highly specialized focus.

Research areas within the College of Science and Engineering are wide-ranging. Notably distinctive local research themes include the utilization of island biological resources, ecological and environmental sustainability engineering, green energy technology and applications, and spatial information system applications. These efforts play a long-term and far-reaching role in supporting local infrastructure development and industrial growth.

2. College of Humanities and Social Sciences

As a key hometown of overseas Chinese deeply rooted in the hearts of global Chinese communities, the College of Humanities and Social Sciences is dedicated to preserving Minnan culture, participating in local urban planning, safeguarding border regions, and cultivating international affairs professionals. With “Culture, City, and International Affairs” as its three core pillars, the college develops a wide range of related academic programs.

Culture: Through the Master’s Program in Minnan Culture, the university has become a major center for Minnan culture studies in Taiwan, with an irreplaceable uniqueness. The Departments of Applied English and Chinese Language and Literature equip students with global mobility while also helping overseas Chinese descendants preserve their Chinese language proficiency.

City: The unique context of military heritage sites, historical character, and surrounding marine ecology allows the Departments of Architecture and Urban Planning and Landscape to offer teaching that is more inclusive and interdisciplinary than that of other universities. These programs infuse urban architecture and landscape design with a balanced perspective that integrates both tradition and innovation.

International Affairs: Owing to Kinmen’s distinctive and strategic geographic location, the Departments of International and Mainland China Affairs and Ocean and Border Management stand out among universities in Taiwan. In recent years, these programs have been accelerating efforts to cultivate top-tier talent in cross-strait relations and border management for Taiwan.

3. College of Management
Including: Department of Business Administration, Department of Tourism Management, Department of Sports and Leisure, Department of Industrial Engineering and Management, Master Program with Direct Admission to Ph. D. Program in Strategy and Development of Cross-Border Industries

Peter Drucker, a master of Western management, once said that management issues are multi-faceted. Management is not just common sense, nor is it just a rule of thumb, but a set of organized knowledge.

The College of Management of Kinmen University systematically classifies teaching fields, starting from a solid foundation and practice of business management, and then echoing the characteristics of the outlying island industry to deepen the cultivation of tourism and sports management talents. After being upgraded to a university, it has become more closely aligned with the talent needs of industrial engineering management. The Department of Business Administration emphasizes both theory and practice, cultivating students’ ability to solve problems and innovate. The Department of Industrial Engineering and Management uses AI and smart manufacturing knowledge to lead students to meet the future of automated management. Tourism and recreation are important economic sources for Kinmen’s industry. Kinmen University also closely follows the industry’s heartbeat and cultivates management talents in the fields of tourism, sports and leisure for the country. The granite geology of Kinmen Taiwu Mountain and various rich natural and cultural landscapes are the real-life classrooms for the Department of Tourism to step out of textbooks. The wine-themed courses offered due to Kinmen’s wine production are also one of the characteristics of the Department of Tourism.

4. College of Health and Nursing
Including: Department of Nursing, Department of Long-Term Care, Department of Social Work

The College of Health and Nursing was established 10 years ago and is the youngest college in the school. It is particularly closely integrated with domestic long-term care policies and health care as a trend, undertaking the task of cultivating health care and social work talents for outlying islands and assisting Kinmen in expanding the health care industry. In order to educate students to have health care, global vision and professional literacy, the College of Health and Nursing emphasizes service professionalism and skills. Every graduate has the ability to directly enter the workplace after four years of training. The entire college emphasizes 4 core teaching concepts:

3. Cross-Strait and International Talent Training and Exchange

Kinmen has always been an important node for cross-strait exchanges and interactions, whether in terms of geographical location or long-term role-playing. Our school makes good use of its location advantages to design many cross-strait characteristic professional courses and arrange visits to or exchanges with cross-strait enterprises, so that students can grasp relevant information and trends on both sides of the strait as early as possible during their studies.

Our school actively negotiates with Taiwanese businessmen on both sides of the strait and in various countries to sign industry-university cooperation agreements, and promotes students to go to mainland China, Vietnam, Indonesia and other places for industrial internships in accordance with the spirit of the cooperation intention letters of both parties. At the same time, it also actively encourages students to participate in various international exchange seminars or participate in international volunteer activities.

In addition, our school actively promotes students to go to Taiwan, international or mainland prestigious universities for exchange studies. As long as you have excellent grades, you will have more opportunities to be selected to go to Taiwan, mainland China or study abroad.

Overseas Chinese students and foreign students participating in the exchange study program will not be affected by the original overseas Chinese student and foreign student scholarships, and can also apply for additional scholarships. Our school’s curriculum design, off-campus visits, internships, and cross-school and cross-national exchange studies are designed to promote students’ participation in cross-strait and international exchanges, cultivate international mobility, and strengthen students’ competitive advantages in employment.

4. Industry-University Cooperation or School-Employment Integration System

Industry-university cooperation internship and employment integration. It is emphasized that each department has a sound industrial internship system. For example, our Department of Business Administration has signed internship agreements with many companies such as King Yuan Electronics Co., Ltd., Ever Rich Co., Ltd., and Unified Securities Group. Students can choose to intern at the company in the last year of their program and get in touch with the employment environment early. (See the website of each department for details on industrial internships and employment planning in other departments)
