Feature One of Our College

A Learning Environment That Combines Communication Science and Humanities & Arts

The most distinctive feature of our College of Liberal Arts lies in its integration of two major academic traditions: communication science and humanities & arts. This unique combination has fostered an academic foundation that blends the Western scientific spirit with Eastern philosophical thought. Under the university’s “Three Transformations” policy—globalization, informatization, and futurization—our college has developed four key attributes: professionalism, culture, innovation, and communication, facilitating the convergence of Eastern and Western civilizations.

Feature Two of Our College

“Cultural and Creative Industries Credit Program” – A Cradle for Talent in the Cultural and Creative Industries

The five-department structure of our college forms the core of the global Chinese-language cultural and creative industries, encompassing the accumulation, application, and reinvention of Chinese culture and creativity. Accordingly, our undergraduate Cultural and Creative Industries Credit Program covers fields such as humanities information, communication, and marketing, serving as both a cradle for talent development and a driving force for integrated creative teaching, academic research & development, and industry-academia collaboration. Moreover, it represents the college’s commitment to social engagement through academia.

Feature Three of Our College

“Grand Cultural Tamsui” and Social Responsibility

Our college has long been committed to preserving Tamsui’s local culture. In addition to regularly organizing Tamsui studies seminars and compiling the Tamsui Gazetteer, we have also carried out the “Grand Cultural Tamsui: A Comprehensive Record” research project for consecutive years. This project involves data collection, archival research, and field investigations, culminating in written documentation and documentary films that digitally preserve Tamsui’s humanities, arts, ecology, and traditional professions.

Furthermore, our college actively participates in community service around the Greater Tamsui area. Through the project “Reviving History, Rejuvenating Alleys: Tamsui Old Street Regeneration Plan,” we have secured funding from the Ministry of Education’s University Social Responsibility (USR) Program. This initiative aims to revitalize Tamsui’s traditional culture and tourism industry by fostering collaborations between academia and local associations, businesses, and Old Street stakeholders.
