Academics--College of Engineering

The Engineering College consists of 6departments
¡@¡@¡EElectrical Engineering,
¡@¡@¡EMechanical and Aerospace Engineering,
¡@¡@¡ECivil Engineering,
¡@¡@¡EApplied mathematics,
¡@¡@¡ECommunications Engineering,
¡@¡@¡EMicroelectronics Engineering

and one institute (Engineering Science) which offers Ph.D. program. Students graduated from the College mainly work as engineers in hi-tech industry.
The College has been seeking collaborated research projects with Hsinchu Science Park, Industrial Technology Research Institute, and National Health Research Institutes.

Department and Graduate School of Electrical Engineering

The research fields include: computer theory, computer graphics, image processing, parallel & distributed system, computer network, VLSI design and testing, human-machine interface, computer theory and management, etc.

The curriculum puts emphasis on the following three streams: information engineering of hardware and software, computer theory, and computer management. In addition, our programs combines theory and practice, equipping students with what is needed in their future careers.

Department and Graduate School of Civil Engineering

The Department of Civil Engineering provides adequate training to help students work in the industry readily.

The future development of the Department in instruction and research is directed to the study on the automation of construction engineering. This is also a policy of the government in response to the labor shortage problem. The short-term goal of the Department is placed on studying the properties of the construction materials and enhancing the automation in design, evaluation and testing for quality control. The long-term goal is directed to the industrialization of building engineering.

Department of Mechanical Engineering and Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics

Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics was established with a view to provide aeronautical professionals to the national aerospace program in the near future. The program consists of four major research groups: (1) Combustion and Propulsion, (2) Design and Manufacturing, (3) Materials, and (4) Control.

Goals: (1) Design, manufacture, and test fuselages and wings. (2) Design, manufacture, and test airplane engines. (3) Design navigation and guidance software. (4) Research and develop the satellite system. (5) Research and develop automobile engines. (6) Research and develop manufacturing skills for precision machines.

Department of Applied Mathematics

The research fields include differential equations, numerical analysis, computational fluid dynamics, computational solid mechanics, and applied statistics. The department also works on improving the teaching methods of basic courses such as calculus. The goal to establish the department of applied mathematics is to solve mathematical problems related to engineering, science and business administration. Based on interdisciplinary cooperation, our future plan is to establish a mathematical counseling center at the university. Master program for graduate study is available now.

Department of Communication Engineering

Independent from the Department of Electronic Engineering, the Department of Communication Engineering was set up in 2003 and starts to recruit students from year 2004. ?The current faculty consists of five associate professors, one assistant professor and three lecturers. Six of them have Ph.D. degrees and one is a doctoral candidate. Their specialized fields range from digital signal processing, wireless communication to digital and analog IC and computer network communication.

Graduates from the Department can either get further study or get into workplace in the industries of computing, communication, opto-electronics, automation and semiconductor.

The future development of this Department will focus on tight connection to industries besides fundamental courses. We aim to design courses of application and integration in communication systems. In other words, it is cultivating professionals in response to the need of industries that counts.Since fields in communication engineering cover from elemental research to incorporated application of systems, our strategy of planning will change with time and need, hoping to realize requests from national industries.

Department of Microelectronics Engineering

The Department of Microelectronics Engineering was starts to recruit students from year 2005.

 

Institute of Engineering Science

This Ph.D. program amalgamates faculties and research resources from five areas of electronic engineering, information engineering, mechanical and aerospace engineering, applied mathematics and bio-information, expecting to nurture advanced high-tech specialists.  Close cooperation and interaction with Hsinchu Science Park, Industrial Technology Research Institute and National Health Research Institute is highly accentuated.  The brief introduction of each five sections is as follows:

1.     Section of electronic engineering: We focus on cultivating sophisticated development and management experts in areas of communication, control, electric circuits and opto-electronics.  Curriculum with theories and practice enables students to absorb the latest knowledge independently, and quickly adjust themselves to new trends of technology and industries.

2.     Section of information engineering: The goals of our section are (1) laying solid foundation in basic professional knowledge (2) increasing experiences in actual operation (3) centering on team-work (4) encouraging abilities to independent thinking and creativity and (5) nurturing positive attitudes and mature personalities of students.

3.     Section of mechanical and aerospace engineering: With the tendency of new age and new industries, our section launches such educational objectives as follows: (1) developing talents in the subjects of mechanical and engineering (2) giving instructions in cross-field or integrated engineering knowledge (3) performing research and development in the most up-to-date manufacturing and (4) producing authorities with independent thinking and multi-faceted training abilities, to help enhance the technological level of national high-tech industries.

4.     Section of applied mathematics: The main educational purpose of this Section are (1) providing cooperating chances for applied sciences and theoretical mathematics (2) training cross-field talents to improve their research abilities and qualities and the ultimate goal is to offer superior professionals in applied mathematics to our nation and society.

5.     Section of bio-informatics: The aim of this Section is to supply forward-looking personnel of research and practice in the fields of biology and information.  We hope our students can be academically informative and practically productive in R & D in biological technology industries.
