About the University
The National University of Kaohsiung (NUK) was founded on February 1, 2000 by the Government in hopes of achieving a more balanced higher education infrastructure between southern and northern Taiwan. Additionally, the University embodies the Government’s policy goals in developing Taiwan into an Asia-Pacific Regional Operation Center, upgrading Kaohsiung’s small- and medium-sized industries, and transforming traditional industries into high tech arenas. In addition to the University’s commitment to producing caring communities and vibrant economies through education, our mission is to produce future leaders who will have a profound impact on the society as a whole.
