Foreword

Built on the tenet "rooted in Yilan,ctivities  embracing the world" and "academic globalization, service localization", the department has actively conducted many substantive academic cooperation programs and exchanged visits with renowned international institutions. The department encourages students to participate in international exchange aand graduate students to submit their contributions to international conferences so as to increase international exposure. In addition, to further enhance students' international perspectives and understand the current mainstream research directions in the world, we have also invited distinguished foreign scholars to give short lectures and advise our students on a regular basis. Faculty members have submitted research proposals to sponsoring agencies jointly with scholars affiliated with foreign universities. The department also organizes, in conjunction with Office of International Affairs, short-term international student visit and exchange. Interaction with local students is encouraged to promote mutual understanding and global thinking.
