Tungnan University

The school was founded in August 1970, formerly known as “Tungnan Junior College of Technology”, and was approved to be restructured into “Tungnan Institute of Technology” on August 1, 2000, and was approved to change its name to “Tungnan University” on August 1, 2007.

In order to ensure the sustainable operation and development of the school, as well as the accurate implementation of the school affairs plan, various business and department adjustments have been made in response to the needs of sustainable development after the name change to the University of Science and Technology, and at the same time, in order to improve the effectiveness of teacher teaching and student learning, the practices and effectiveness indicators of the relevant plans for promoting the development of teaching excellence will be closely linked to the school’s mid-term school affairs development plan, and implement the school’s “students first, teaching paramount”, “Education tailored to individual aptitudes, with equal access to learning for all”The school’s philosophy comprehensively improves students’ learning ability and workplace employability, achieves successful career careers for our graduates, cultivates talents who make positive contributions to society and industry, and establishes the characteristics and reputation of the school.

International Exchange and Cooperation

In order to promote the operation of internationalization, our school has set up an international and cross-strait exchange center under the Research and Development Office in the 100th academic year, actively promoting the signing of cooperation agreements with overseas friend schools, and conducting student exchange and study, overseas high school strategic alliances and other activities. In recent years, due to the increasing vigor of international exchange activities, the frequency of international exchanges between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait, and the increasing diversification of exchange forms, it is urgent to establish a dedicated unit for international affairs in order to further enhance the degree of “internationalization” of the university and integrate relevant resources within the university.

Therefore, in the 2014 academic year, the “International Affairs Office” was established, which was officially operated on February 1, 2015, to oversee the international affairs of the whole school, handle international and cross-strait activities, and provide comprehensive exchange and consulting services between overseas students and overseas scholars, thereby deepening the overall “internationalization” of the campus, enhancing the international vision of teachers and students, and strengthening the international competitiveness and popularity of the school. Our school attaches great importance to the cultivation of students’ international mobility, and has achieved good results in students’ overseas study and overseas internships. On August 1, 2023, the Comprehensive Business Group of the International Affairs Office of the Office was officially renamed the International and Cross-Strait Affairs Office.
