3. Foster in students an attitude towards self-growth and a willingness and capability for lifelong learning.

4. Equip students with communication and coordination skills, a team-oriented spirit, and a sense of engineering ethics.

5. Cultivate students with an international perspective and a multicultural mindset.

Research and Teaching Directions

In order to balance the future trends in industrial development and the environment of our university, the Department has identified four major development areas, including Communication and Networking, Integrated Circuit Design, Microelectronics and Biomedical Engineering, and Smart Internet of Things (IoT).

The specific development goals and characteristics for each area are outlined as follows:

Communication and Networking Area:Focus on communication system design, 5G/B5G/6G technologies, radio frequency/microwave/millimeter-wave circuit design, in-vehicle communication and networking technologies, network security, IoT, and ultra-high-frequency antenna design.

Integrated Circuit Design Area:Concentrate on digital/analog VLSI design, VLSI signal processing and design, communication integrated circuit design, and SIP/SoC system integration chip design.

Microelectronics and Biomedical Engineering Area:Explore the unique physical and chemical properties of materials at the nanoscale, applying them to advanced green energy, optoelectronics engineering, medical engineering, and semiconductor technologies.

Smart Internet of Things (IoT) Area:Respond to the transformation needs of traditional industries by incorporating technologies such as IoT, big data, and virtual/real systems into industries.

Prospects after Graduation

Advanced Studies：Graduates from the undergraduate program in our department can pursue advanced degrees through recommended admissions or graduate school examinations at various relevant research institutions both domestically and internationally.

Employment：The university is strategically located near the "Taichung Science Park," "Taichung Industrial Park," "Taichung Aerospace Industrial Park," "Taichung Software Park," "Taichung Port-Related Industrial Zone," and "Taichung Precision Machinery Park." Whether in the development of high-tech industries, digital transformation of enterprises, upgrading traditional industries, or the growth of emerging industries, there is a substantial demand for talents in the field of electrical engineering. Graduates can also consider employment opportunities through civil service exams, which offer many positions related to electrical engineering.

International Opportunities：The department encourages students to pursue international development. Students have the option to study for degrees at sister universities affiliated with our school

Entrepreneurship：Graduates from our department, based on their respective expertise and interests, can choose to venture into entrepreneurship. They may draw inspiration from their academic projects and designs during their time at the university.
