From the Founder

In the second half of the twentieth century, the economic development in Taiwan has created an economic miracle admired around the world. By means of a technological and vocational education system, Taiwan has provided an endless stream of high quality professionals.

For the past 40 years, Kun Shan University has been a facilitator in the creation of that economic miracle for the nation while at the same time continuously adapting, growing, and improving itself.

Originally, it was an industrial junior college, then afterwards it was changed to a junior college of industry and business. Due to its achievements in offering high quality education, of more than ten junior colleges the school was the first one of its kind to be promoted a college of technology, and then finally once again promoted to the status of a university of technology. The various stages of this transformation have closely kept up with the changes in the nation』s key stages of development that demand a pool of talented professionals. While marching into twenty-first century and facing the various changes happening around the globe and the nation, technological and vocational education will encounter new challenges. This university stood on its own feet at the age of thirty and was without doubt at the age of forty. Kun Shan University has remained focused in the midst of tremendous challenges. Our mission is to maintain an international vision along with high educational standards with a view to integrate both a technological education and the humanities in order to develop innovative technical professionals.
