To be responsible for our future by fulfilling society's needs

Situated in the culturally rich and literarily vibrant Puli Township, Nantou County, NCNU became a pivotal center of knowledge, leading the development of the Shui Sha Lian region after the diligent efforts of its successive presidents. The critical challenge remained to stand firm and forge ahead for maintaining the success. To this end, NCNU positioned itself as a comprehensive university with both international perspective and local implementation, in order to become a distinguished and sustainable international university. NCNU prioritized sustainability by having solar installations with a capacity of 8,640 kWp to aim for a net zero emissions campus by 2043. Over 60 full-time instructors practiced locally across five colleges with an average of 36 courses and over 1,000 students in related local practice each year. These efforts had been recognized with the National Sustainable Development Awards from the Executive Yuan and the Environmental Education Facility Accreditation from the Ministry of Environment. Additionally, NCNU received a total of NT$93.16 million from the Ministry of Education's Higher Education SPROUT Project. This was a 13.2% increase, which was the highest subsidy among domestic public mid-sized universities since last year. As a result, NCNU had been ranked 127th from The World University Ranking for Innovation (WURI) and 1st in place among public mid-sized universities USR Survey in 2023. Confronting the challenges in the higher education environment, NCNU was poised to benefit from its strategic guidelines on refined culture, sustainable operation, and international perspective as approached its 30th anniversary. Pursued innovations and broke boundaries after maintaining a dynamic balance between globalization and localization, to implement "international thinking with local practice," NCNU aimed to cultivate future leaders endowed with global vision and social responsibility. headmaster
