Southern Taiwan University of Science and Technology

Tainan City, Taiwan

Located along the southwest coast of Taiwan in Tainan City, Southern Taiwan University of Science and Technology (STUST) is a competitive international university dedicated to providing students a well-rounded education in both the humanities and technology. Founded in 1969, STUST has quickly moved from a junior college of technology to a full-fledged university with an emphasis on both teaching and research. STUST is composed of 4 colleges: The College of Engineering, The College of Business, The College of Digital Design, and The College of Humanities and Social Sciences with 24 departments, 32 master programs, and 4 doctoral programs. We currently have more than 18,622 (the 6th largest in Taiwan) enrolled students, of which 500 are international students coming from 32 different countries. Our faculty of 600 strives to establish a strong global mindset and independent thinking in each of our students. The campus area is about 16.5 hectares.

The school now contains 32 buildings, including the Auditorium, Teaching and Research Building, Internship Workshop, Library, Recreation Building, Student Center, Dormitories for male and female students, Classroom Buildings and so on. In addition to these facilities, there are well-built facilities for sports, including tennis courts, volleyball courts, basketball courts and a track and field. Furthermore, a great number of trees and flowers have been planted on campus. The soothing green lawn, foliage, and shade beautifully contrast with all of STUST’s red brick buildings. Almost year round you can find students either studying or grabbing a bite to eat outside in one of the many gardens or outdoor recreational areas.
