National Tsing Hua University

National Tsing Hua University (NTHU) is a leading comprehensive research university located in Hsinchu, a beautiful city in northern Taiwan, which is also known to be the heart of high-tech in this country. The glorious history of NTHU can be traced back to the first half of the 20th century. In 1911, NTHU was established as “Tsing Hua Academy” in Beijing, China. And then re-established in Hsinchu, Taiwan, in 1956 by the original President Yi-Chi Mei (1889-1962).

Over the last sixty years, NTHU has developed into an institute housing 13 colleges with more than 140 degree programs open for international students, ranging from science, engineering, nuclear, life science & medicine, electrical engineering & computer science, humanities & social science, technology management, arts, education, semiconductor, and more.

Based on a student body of 18,000 and a faculty of 3,000, NTHU provides a stimulating and nurturing environment where our faculty can offer quality teaching and conduct innovative research. Regarded as one of the top research universities, our research and development activities across the university emphasize fundamental discoveries at the forefront of basic sciences and exploration of breakthrough technologies with a high potential for applications.

Active performances above can be reflected from our publication in the world's preeminent journals, awarded international patents, and technology transfer cases. These also bring NTHU to nurture more outstanding alumni, including three Nobel Prize winners and one mathematics Woolf Prize winner, which shows the glorious history and excellent academic environment of National Tsing Hua University.
