Director's Message

"Known will hills be if fairies dwell,
no matter high or low; and
charmed will waters be
if dragons lurk,
no matter deep or shallow."

The impact of academic research is not a product of quantity,
and so quantity of research is not the main concern of

been established more than 35 years, and with a careful and

Academician of Academia in succession.

Researcher Award, Outstanding Research Award, Ta-You Wu

Scholarship, Outstanding Award of Pan Wen Yuan Foundation,
TECO Foundation Award, and more. A few faculty members
