National Cheng Kung University (NCKU), located in Taiwan’s ancient and cultural capital of Tainan, is one of Taiwan’s top research-intensive universities and a leader in promoting industry-academia cooperation. Apart from engineering, NCKU is also known for its science, medicine, management, planning and design programmes. NCKU helped Taiwan to transform from an agriculture-based society to an industrialised economy during the 1960s and 1970s. To make NCKU a world-class university, its president is determined to establish a friendly campus environment for better interdisciplinary teaching and research and industry-academia cooperation, and to set up international exchanges.
