Education for SDGs in the wider community
■Alumni
Our the Continuing Education Center provides alumni with free or discounted access to a wide range of courses on topics such as ESG, sustainable energy, and innovation design, thereby supporting their personal and professional growth.
■Local community
The university established the “ewant Open Education Platform” with the aim of sharing higher education resources with the public, expanding educational opportunities for senior high school students, fostering self-directed learning, and increasing the flexibility of elective courses. As of 2023, the platform has accumulated over 470,000 registered users, with more than 10,000 students engaging in online learning each week. In addition to promoting self-learning among high school students and providing general education credits for university students, the platform has launched immersive camps, bilingual online study tours, and high school talent development programmes. Furthermore, in collaboration with the Ministry of Education, the ewant Platform has pioneered a new model for general education, offering more than 37 fully online courses in 2023. These courses span a wide range of disciplines, with credits recognised by 62 universities and colleges, allowing students to continue their studies during the summer break.
■Displaced people and refugees
The university has started the “Ukraine Students Scholarship and Grants Program” to help students whose studies were interrupted by the Ukrainian-Russian War. The amount of funds raised has exceeded NT$40 million, and it will be used to assist 36 Ukraine students in coming to Taiwan to continue their studies.
