The “Joint Admission” process follows a standardized procedure to ensure fairness across different regions. The University Entrance Committee For Overseas Compatriot Students verifies and converts academic results based on the specific Admissions Brochures of the applicant’s country of residence and the “Detailed Rules for Score Calculation and Placement Operations.”

The University Entrance Committee For Overseas Compatriot Students verifies and converts academic results based on the specific Admissions Brochures of the applicant’s country of residence and the “Detailed Rules for Score Calculation and Placement Operations.”

何藝峰
Current President of the Soochow University Macau Alumni Association Macau
Class of 2012, Department of Law, current President of the Soochow University Macau Alumni Association.
Currently serving as the person in charge of three companies. I am very grateful to be able to study at Soochow University, an excellent and long-established university. In addition to absorbing knowledge, I have also made very good teachers and friends, which has made my life more exciting.
I have been involved in club activities throughout my time at the university. After graduation, in order to unite alumni, I participated in the preparation and establishment of the Macau Alumni Association. In the blink of an eye, the Alumni Association has been established for more than 10 years. I look forward to the Alumni Association growing stronger in the future with the joint efforts of all directors.

Graduated from the Department of Economics, Soochow University, Taiwan in 1993. During his university years, he served as the treasurer (sophomore year) / president (junior year) / consultant (senior year) of the Overseas Chinese Student Association. In 1993, he received the Individual Contribution Award in the 5th (1992) People’s Award Club File Competition at Soochow University. In 1994, he returned to Malaysia (Penang) and worked at Taiwan-funded Sheng Optronics PCB Co., Ltd. as a business section chief. In 1997, he founded GPI Electronic Sdn.

He is currently the acting president of the Soochow University Alumni Association of Malaysia and a director of the United Federation of Alumni Associations of Taiwan Universities in Malaysia.
I lived in Taiwan for 5 years, working hard in a work-study environment during my studies. In addition to achieving academic standards, the rich club activity environment at my alma mater, Soochow University, has created a smooth path for my subsequent life. The leaders of various departments of my alma mater provided complete guidance at all times. Compared with now, the school has established more complete departments, such as the International Office and the Alumni Association, which provide assistance to current students and alumni from time to time. The software and hardware of my alma mater are almost perfect. I hope that the younger students will cherish the excellent learning environment of the school, and they will definitely be able to develop and walk out of a perfect life after graduation.
林秀琴
Outstanding alumni Indonesia
I am Lin Hsiu-chin, an overseas Chinese from Indonesia. I entered the Department of English Language and Literature, College of Foreign Languages, Soochow University in 1997 and graduated in June 2004. At that time, choosing to study in Taiwan was a good choice because the environment was better than Indonesia, and Taiwanese people were known for their hospitality and very good attitude. The school also had student dormitories, which made it very convenient for me and saved time and money.
Graduating from Taiwan made it easy for me to find a job in both Taiwan and Indonesia. I have a wealth of work experience: I had work-study programs and part-time jobs outside the school during my university years, which improved my language skills and gave me a deeper understanding of Taiwanese dialects and slang. The teachers also encouraged me and allowed me to think independently and bravely pursue my dreams.
I have lived and worked in Indonesia for 20 years since 2004. I have worked as a secretary, visa group 《general staff》, public security group 《manager》, tour guide, translator, and Chinese teacher. And now my profession is a teacher. I really like being a teacher because it is my pride to be able to teach students to become smart and successful.
I hope that younger students will have the opportunity to create their own path. No matter what challenges you are facing now, don’t be discouraged or give up, because the future will definitely be better than now. You must believe in yourself, no matter how difficult the road ahead is, please always believe in your ability to face it.
On campus, you have abundant resources and opportunities, try to explore and try as much as possible. Every course, every activity, and every interpersonal interaction is an opportunity for you to grow.
曾春雲
Class of 1986, Department of Business Administration, current President of the Soochow University Myanmar Alumni Association Myanmar
Born into a fisherman’s family in Shagang Village, Huxi Township, Penghu County, he successfully completed his studies with a work-study program for four and a half years. After completing his military service, he worked for a seafood company for two years. He saved a sum of money to prepare for studying abroad and chose Oklahoma City University, which had a publicly funded study cooperation with the Police Administration at the time, to pursue a major in MBA International Marketing. At the same time, he was very impressed by the solid curriculum training of the Department of Business Administration for four years, which allowed him to review the course content that he had already absorbed in college and also strengthened his language skills.
After graduating from the United States, he was introduced by a friend to start a business in Myanmar, which has been more than 30 years. In those days, there were many opportunities waiting to be developed, but the current situation is that the opportunities waiting for younger students will only become less and less. I encourage younger students to plan their future and work hard and create opportunities with a “persistent” heart. In addition, the viewpoints and attitudes of “doing things” and “being a person” must be separated. Doing things can be rational, but being a person must be emotional. The same is true for the alumnus’s vision and expectations for his alma mater. He believes that Soochow must find a way to go, that is, to have its own characteristics, and as an alumnus, he must also bear the responsibility of maintaining and establishing the image of Soochow.
Highlights
Featured courses
In 2015, Soochow University took the lead among universities in Asia to establish the “College of Big Data Management,” which specializes in the research of data science, bringing together the energy and height of the college to fully cultivate the data combat power of data science talents. In this era of “Artificial Intelligence (AI),” with “integration” and “innovation” as the core and “practical application” as the guidance, we cultivate data analysis talents who have both theoretical and practical experience and can become immediately effective in the industry after graduation.
Interdisciplinary learning
The university has a total of six colleges, 26 departments and programs, and one international program, making it a complete comprehensive university. The school focuses on cultivating interdisciplinary integrated talents, providing a variety of interdisciplinary learning opportunities such as minor, double major, interdisciplinary credit program, and second expertise. With the exception of the Department of Music, every department can accept applications from students of the university for a minor and double major.
We pay attention to the student’s learning process, and the results of interdisciplinary learning will be clearly recorded on the transcripts and certificates. Without extending the study period and increasing the number of credits, students can effectively use elective credits from other departments to make learning more autonomous, flexible, and targeted, and enhance future workplace competitiveness!
