Building on brownfield sites

NYCU develops within existing urban sites and previously developed land rather than on new greenfield plots:
•Yangming Campus: Built on a former quarry, converting an extractive site into an academic landscape.
•Guangfu Campus: Redeveloped the ROC Army’s former Camp Weiwu (acquired 1978), with subsequent expansion (1981–1996) using parcels from Camp Jih-Hsin and leased lots in the Hsinchu Science Park—all previously developed sites.
•Tainan Campus (2002, 100 ha allocation) now anchors the College of Artificial Intelligence, the Center for Academia–Industry Collaboration, and the Incubation R&D Park—concentrating research and industry partnership while minimizing future land take.
•The new Kaohsiung Campus was established by renovating the existing Zuoying Human Resources Development Center (a city facility) to meet teaching and research needs—an explicit reuse of an underused building coordinated with the Kaohsiung City Government.
