Overview

Shih Chien, which in Chinese means “practice,” was originated from the belief of Wang Yangming, a great Chinese philosopher (1498): “Knowledge is the beginning of practice. Doing is the completion of knowing”. Shih Chien University keeps this motto in mind while implementing and expanding its educational vision. Over the years, the institution was upgraded in 1991 and promoted to university status in 1997.

Shih Chien University, formerly known as Shih Chien College of Human Economics, was founded in 1958 by Dr. Tung-Min Shieh. Today, the university is made up of 2 campuses and 5 colleges and is home to approximately 16,000 students and 700 faculties and staffs. While Taiwan is relatively more mature, stable, liberal, and much livelier than other Chinese societies in the world and plays a crucial role in the cross-strait relationship. Our two campuses are located in the most important cities in the north and south of Taiwan. Shih Chien University not only is a learning community with great academic atmosphere and artistic environment, but also offers international students various opportunities to experience Chinese culture and explore the fast growing region in Asia.
