Benefiting from AI-driven momentum, the Industrial Technology Research Institute estimates that Taiwan's semiconductor industry value will exceed NT$5 trillion for the first time in 2024, with an annual growth of 17.7%. This rapid growth highlights the importance of cultivating relevant talents. CHU, adjacent to Hsinchu Science Park, has successfully implemented the "Deep Cultivation Park Project" in collaboration with over 20 renowned companies in the park. This year, many recent graduates have seamlessly entered tech companies like TSMC and UMC. Mayhui Lin, a Japanese student in the Applied and Business Intelligence Program, was even retained by her internship company after graduation, successfully realizing her dream of becoming an engineer in Taiwan.

Since its establishment, CHU has actively cultivated talents needed by the tech industry to promote industrial development. The university has partnered with dream companies for fresh graduates such as TSMC, MediaTek, UMC, and King Yuan Electronics to launch the "Deep Cultivation Park Project". Through a learning path of "exploration, analysis, practice, and internship", students are arranged to visit and intern at Hsinchu Science Park from their freshman to senior years, gradually guiding their learning and leading to high-paying jobs in the park after graduation.

Among this year's graduates, many have transitioned from internships to full-time positions in tech companies. For example, Lin from the Optoelectronics Department and Shu-min Lin and Hui-lun Zheng from the Mechanical Engineering Department interned at TSMC for a year. Due to their outstanding performance, they were retained as engineers after graduation. Shao-bin Luo and Cheng-you Zheng from the Electrical Engineering Department were matched by CHU to intern at UMC and MSI respectively. After graduation, they passed company evaluations, received salary increases, and were retained with high salaries. Through the Deep Cultivation Park learning path, students gain early understanding of the workplace environment, accumulate years of experience, and earn higher salaries compared to ordinary fresh graduates.

She interned at Yongzhi Technology, a major IC test board manufacturer, and was successfully retained for employment after graduation.

CHU President, Dr. Victor Liu, states that the "Deep Cultivation Park Project" uses diverse industry-academia collaboration models to cultivate students' professional strengths early on. It nurtures talents specialized in technology, civil engineering and construction, and wind power generation, filling the industry's talent gap and creating a win-win-win situation for the school, students, and enterprises.
