The main purpose of this Graduate Institute is to cultivate senior professionals for education and training in various fields, such as engineering, management, design, and humanistic sciences, including school teachers and research talents. Therefore, the primary focus of this Graduate Institute is to cultivate professionals through the master program of technical and vocational education, while the secondary focus is to cultivate professionals through the in-service master program. Moreover, this Graduate Institute combines teacher training, such as the cultivation of pre-service educational talent training, and offers (in-service) a PhD program to cultivate senior research talents for technical and vocational education, as well as training fields. The students to be enrolled in this Graduate Institute are mainly vocational senior high school teachers, lecturers of technical and vocational junior colleges, trainers of in-service learning training centers, and senior supervisors of industrial management. Moreover, this Graduate Institute fulfills the educational policies of school e-learning, internationalization, and industrialization, in order to achieve its educational objectives. The educational objectives of this Graduate Institute are, as follows:

The educational objective is to cultivate senior professionals for education and training in the fields of engineering, management, design, and humanistic sciences, including school teachers, researchers, lecturers in enterprises, and talents for educational administration. The educational focuses are:
-
To guide master program students to strengthen their research and learning of the theories and practices of technical and vocational education, as well as to cultivate their teaching ability, research ability, and administrative ability in technical and vocational education.
-
To guide master program students to strengthen their research and learning of technologies for professional fields, such as engineering, management, design, and humanistic sciences, in order to improve their professional knowledge and technologies in relevant fields.
The educational objective is to cultivate senior research talents for technical and vocational education, as well as training fields, where the students to be enrolled are mainly in-service personnel, including in-service teachers of technical and vocational junior colleges, vocational senior high school teachers, and in-service personnel engaging in educational training in industries. The PhD program focuses on application and research-oriented courses, and students can take several elective courses offered by other master programs and PhD programs in our university to strengthen their original professional competencies. The educational focuses are:
-
To develop PhD program students’ abilities in planning and executing research, as well as the abilities to explore, develop, and comprehensively analyze the issues and practices of domestic and foreign technical and vocational educational development according to their context/background, regional and social culture, and local industrial, technological, and economic development.
-
To develop PhD program students’ ability to apply research results to the contexts of practical works, in order to improve their work quality and efficiency in professional fields.
-
Attaching importance to electronization, industrialization, and internationalization. Our institute emphasizes the equal importance of theory and practice, and considers both science and technology and humanity. Therefore, there are three focuses in our institute’s education – teaching, research, and administrative management of technical and vocational education. Our institute appropriately plans and arranges the courses, faculties, equipment, and practical teaching.
-
Regarding course and teaching arrangements, thesis instructions for the graduate students, teacher/student thematic studies, and various departments and centers in colleges of engineering, management, design, and human sciences at our university fully cooperate with one another and share resources.
-
Providing opportunities for advanced studies: In order to meet the need for advanced studies in technical and vocational education in the various fields in society, our institute provides opportunities for advanced studies to graduates from relevant departments in universities and colleges, as well as human resources development and training personnel in public and private institutions, in order to improve their professional competence.
-
Developing strategic alliances: Developing interactive relationships as learning partners between universities of technology and science and regional technical and vocational education institutions.
-
Expanding international exchanges: Aggressively engaging in international educational cooperation and academic exchanges, in order to develop graduate students’ macro perspective of internationalization.
