    I have been compelled by a deep sense of responsibility to lead and

    develop the University into an internationally renowned and

    technologically innovative agship of higher academic institutions.

    -- Dr. Tsu-Tian Lee, President of NTUT

    A Prestigious University with a Glorious History

    National Taipei University of Technology (NTUT) was established in

    1912. With long-standing history and experience in education, it devotes

    to cultivation of technical professionals. Alumni of the NTUT have

    contributed greatly to the economic development of Taiwan and won

    wide praise from businesses of all industries. NTUT ranks at the topamongst over 150 colleges and universities in Taiwan, and was voted

    number two as the most preferred college by graduating students in

    1994 and 1996.

    To promote advanced and high-tech academic research, to foster more

    professionals with high-quality skills, and to reach the goal of becoming

    a comprehensive university of technology, National Taipei University of

    The multiculturalism at the NTUT is great. In Department of industrial

    Design, you need to enjoy making things work, whether its getting a

    design completed and veried, solving a problem or thinking about how

    to make the things look good and functional, is great to work with some

    equipment in the Workshop. Working hard is essential but you also

    need to enjoy what you do. I was fortunate, as an outdoors-orientated

    person, to find myself in this country and amongst people who help

    me to feel like at home. In my rst semester I met my classmates and

    I was feeling very welcome; now I've had a great experience here,sharing with Taiwanese people and learning about their customs and

    ideas. Academically, my host department is oriented more practically

    orientated than I was used to, which was a challenging but worthwhile

    learning experience.

    (Bachelor Degree)

    When I started looking for universities in Taiwan, lucky me! I foundNTUT which is the best and prestigious university I like and cherish so

    far. Why? Because this environment is like a home to me, because the

    school have got so many African students that I really feel comfortable

    at any time. Beside, all the school staff and the ofce ladies are always

    willing to help when you need them. I like NTUT and I will always

    recommend it to my friends back home when they ask for better

    university to study aboard.

    This is my rst time living and studying abroad. Its a big challenge for me.

    One of my handicaps is the language because I havent learned enough

    Chinese before I came to Taiwan. But with the help of my friends, now I

    enjoy living and studying in NTUT, Taiwan. NTUT has a good academic

    atmosphere and friendly people.

    The teachers in NTUT have professional experience in industries so

    they can direct the students with industrial related application of the

    theories they learned in class. I think this is a big advantage for students

    in NTUT, Taiwan.

    NTUT is a great place and also in the department of industrial

    engineering. You just need to study hard and enjoy the student life. I

    remember my first day in NTUT when I met my classmates and myteachers I was feeling so happy. At the same time I was surprised because

    my new classmates try to speak with me in Chinese, English, and some

    were trying to speak to me in Spanish.

    NTUT is a very good university and I encouraging you guys to come to

    study at NTUT.
