During the 1960s, while both industrial and economic development were ‘taking off’ in Taiwan, there was a lack of mid-level industrial professionals. In response to the Taiwan’s developmental needs, in December 1963 Mr. Y. C. Wang, founder of Formosa Plastics Group, donated funds for the establishment of the University.
Ming Chi University of Technology is located on the hillside of Kueizi Village in Taishan District, New Taipei City, and was originally named ‘Ming Chi Institute of Technology.’ The campus occupies 61 hectares with vast green areas and beautiful yet tranquil sceneries. More than 200 years ago, during the reign of Emperor Chienlong in the Ching Dynasty, a ‘Gongsheng’ (tributary scholar), Mr. Cho Yu Hu founded the ‘Ming Chi Academy’ in the vicinity of what is now the university. At that time, the academy was the intellectual center and culture hub of northern Taiwan. This university was named ‘Ming Chi’ with an aim to encourage the faculty and students to learn from their virtuous elders and to embrace heritage and vision as their own guiding principles. Features of MCUT ‘Residential schooling’ and ‘part-time practical training’ are two of our longstanding school traditions. To live on campus while studying helps students mould their characteristics and maintain a diligent attitude in daily life. Moral education is a crucial educational strategy nowadays, and it is also our core value to see students gradually learn the moral virtues of sincerity, integrity, mildness, manners, gratitude, thoughtfulness, industriousness and endurance along with the cultivation of leadership and a wholesome personality to serve mankind. As for working part-time outside the school, it is our objective to help students quickly accumulate practical abilities, gain real-life experiences, and learn the true meaning of diligence, perseverance, being down-to-earth, and searching to the root of things. Especially, our overseas practical training program that began in 2006 has become the pioneer among all universities and colleges in the world
With the traditions of ‘residential schooling’ and ‘part-time practical training’, Ming Chi University of Technology has set an excellent example of successfully combining theory and practice and inaugurating a new technical education system. By fostering the spirit of diligence through on-campus life education and cultivating students' practical problem-solving abilities via practical training, we hope to improve the present, create opportunities, and foster future developments to reconstruct Ming Chi as the model institution for technological and vocational education.
Looking to the future, we are arranging to increase the numbers of departments and graduate institutes, improve teaching structure, and continuously promote the academic-industrial cooperation. Moreover, we are actively internationalizing Ming Chi and our students by introducing our practical training programs to universities around the world as well as encouraging our teachers and students to participate in international seminars and activities. We will also be working with overseas institutes to enroll foreign students through the reciprocity credit system. Currently, Ming Chi is building up international learning environment by promoting foreign language abilities and overseas practical training programs to our students to help them to expand their international perspective.
