In 1967, entrepreneurs Mr. Sun Fa-Min and Mrs. Sun (Madam Chen Shu-Chuan) started raising funds for a junior college to train more technicians to meet the economic development needs of the R.O.C. After two years of preparation, Lunghwa Polytechnic was approved by the MOE in November of 1969, and started recruiting students in December of the same year. In the beginning, there were only four dep...artments: Mechanical Engineering, Electronic Engineering, Electrical Engineering, and Chemical Engineering. In 1973, the school changed its name to Lunghwa Junior College of Technology. In 1973, the Department of Industrial Engineering was established. In 1983, the Evening Session was approved. In 1989, the school was renamed Lunghwa Junior College of Technology and Commerce. In the meantime, the Department of International Trade was established. In 1990, the Department of Information Management was added to the program. In 1998, the school was upgraded to a four-year college and was renamed Lunghwa Institute of Technology and an on-the-job training program was added.

Lunghwa has expanded from three departments to current three colleges, fourteen departments, and eight graduate schools. Many of the graduates have been outstanding and contributive in the governmental and private sectors.
Facing the North-South Highway, this university has the great advantage of being located between GuiShan (Taoyuan City) and XinZhuang (New Taipei City). Built on a scenic hill, the campus has an incomparable beautiful view. Under the sagacious leaders of the government, with the support of the elites in industry as well as the undivided hard work of the staff, this university has made enormous progress.

Moreover, we are focusing on developing research on applied sciences and technologies as a feature of this university. Meanwhile, we are dedicated to cooperating with the industry to advance the performance of the whole institution. Promoting the whole person education is another objective of ours. Aside from an emphasis on the students" performances in their majors, the school faculty is devoted to maintaining an educational-friendly environment, organizing a large variety of artistic activities, upgrading students" foreign language skills, and promoting academic exchange with outstanding colleges and universities internationally. With such efforts, we hope we would be in a position to furnish the students with team spirit and good work ethics to meet the demand of the workforce with optimal competitiveness.
