Overview
National Formosa University is a public university in Taiwan that grew out of a technology and vocational tradition and keeps applied, industry-facing study at the centre of its teaching.
Its academic units are organised into five colleges: Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, Engineering, Aviation, Management, and Arts and Sciences. The Aviation college is a recent addition, bringing power mechanical and aeronautical engineering together with an aviation maintenance degree programme and an international master's programme in advanced intelligent vehicles.
Most departments offer bachelor's study, and many add a master's programme. Several also run in-service master's classes for working professionals, and a few departments keep a sub-degree vocational track alongside the degree courses.
At doctoral level the university lists programmes in mechanical and electro-mechanical engineering, electro-optical and materials science, and smart industry technology research and development.
Teaching is supported by general education, language teaching, mathematics and science teaching centres and a physical education office.
