Welcome to the Interdisciplinary Degree Program (IDP).

Choosing to study abroad in a new language is both an exciting opportunity and a meaningful academic commitment. Our 1+3 program is designed to support you throughout this journey, helping you build the language skills and academic foundation you need to thrive in Taiwan.

During your first year, you will receive intensive Chinese language training while taking English-taught general education and elective courses. This combination allows you to strengthen your Chinese proficiency, explore different academic fields, and develop the skills needed for interdisciplinary learning and intercultural communication.

After your first year, you will have the opportunity to continue your studies in a field that matches your interests and goals. Upon acceptance, you will begin your major studies in your sophomore year and continue toward a bachelor’s degree in your chosen field.

Our interdisciplinary approach gives you the flexibility to explore your interests before choosing a major, while our faculty and staff are here to support you throughout your academic journey. We encourage you to approach this experience with curiosity, openness, and determination.

We look forward to welcoming you to the IDP community and to seeing you grow, learn, and discover new possibilities during your time with us.
 

Warm regards,
Mei Hua Chen
