NPUST, located on a hillside in northeastern Neipu Township in Pingtung, occupies 285 hectares adjacent to Da-Wu Mountain and Dong-Gang Creek with the largest and most beautiful campus in the nation. The arrangement and construction of each campus building was based upon the topography of the campus landscape. NPUST has enjoyed the reputation of being a “National Park University.” The campu...s is impressively gorgeous like a natural park possessing countryside characteristics with extensive fields of view, picturesque scenery, and peaceful atmosphere. The university provides our students a unique living and learning environment which promotes learning professional technology, the development of their personalities, and the strengthening of their physical and mental health. It is also an ideal place for the faculty to teach and conduct research.
NPUST is a science and technology institution with a long history of more than 80 years. With the aim of fulfilling the mission of professional education, the Office of Research and Development (ORD) of the university is not only promoting basic research on campus, but also encouraging our faculty to be involved in industry-academia collaboration. In order to carry out a variety of services for industry-academia collaboration, we have set up a number of specialized research centers at the university level or college level on campus, and established various technological service centers in academic departments or graduate institutes.
As part of our university R&D policy, the ORD is actively involved in the implementation of “product oriented research (POR)”. The goal is to devote our faculty’s research to meet the needs of industry and the market. The ORD acts as an intermediate between university faculty and industry through the platforms of “patent portfolio,” “patent protection,” “industry-academia collaboration,” and “innovation and incubation,” The ORD delivers quintessential academic research to industry under the conditions of safety, dignity, legitimacy, convenience, and reciprocity to manifest the benefits of intellectual property and assist the industry in their business continuity. In the next 10 years, the ORD is expecting to advance the research achievements of our university to a standing which can rival those of other research universities in the nation. The ultimate goal is to move NPUST into the top 100 Asian universities in the near future.
NPUST has been collaborating with the International Cooperation and Development Fund (ICDF) since 1998 to provide full scholarships and English programs to foreign students from countries that have a diplomatic relationship with Taiwan . NPUST also grants baccalaureate, master and doctoral degrees to foreign students who receive scholarship from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Education, and the National Science Council. To further enhance the internationalization of NPUST, the university also offers full scholarships to foreign students from countries that do not have a diplomatic relationship with Taiwan . Up through 2009, NPUST has recruited more than 200 foreign students. At the beginning, the source of international students was from Africa and Central and South America , and has since extended to Oceania and Europe . After graduation, many students have good performance in research and administration, and help to promote our diplomatic relationship with foreign countries.
Like other universities, on Office of Student Affairs offers services to every student at NPUST in the following sections: Life Guidance Section, Extracurricular Activities on Section, Sanitation & Health Care Section, and Student Counseling Section. Although our routine services are quite similar to other universities’, we make every effort to make them unique and effective.
A distinctive program called “Spiritual Farming” was initiated by the Student Counseling Section. In this program, we persist in the faith of “Pursue Happiness & EnjoyingLife by Helping.” Through the processes of helping people, serving the community, and participating in various activities, students may help themselves. Students may also reveal their self-consciousness and take advantage of their potential to explore their life.
