National Taiwan University | Taiwan

Being the first integrated and most prestigious institution of higher education in Taiwan area, National Taiwan University (NTU) has taken up the responsibility of promoting the level of academic research and teaching in Taiwan. It has from the very start put emphasis on scholarly research in basic theory and on free atmosphere of academic thought. The University thus sets its objective for development in three major fields: humanities and social sciences, basic sciences and applied sciences. To coordinate with the demands of the national and social developments, the University plans to expand, as needs be, those Departments and Institutes of high applicability into various professional colleges beyond its present nine colleges. Being the leading integrated university in Taiwan and responsible for training researchers and technicians in practical fields, NTU hopes to increase gradually the number of graduate students and to decrease proportionally the number of undergraduates.
