Information and Computer Engineering
- Introduction
The Department is the former Computer Science Sector of the Department of Electronic Engineering which was established in 1973. The sector was separated from the Department and became independent as “Department of Information and Computer Engineering” in August 1981.
In 1991, the Institute of Information and Computer Engineering was established. In 1993, the Doctorial program of the Information and Computer Engineering was set up as an Information Sector in the Doctorial program of the Electronic Engineering Institute. In 2005, the Institute of Information and Computer Engineering for Continuing Education was also established.
Before 1973, Dr. Huang Yungwen, Dr. Huang Tientzu, Dr. Hsiung Shenkan and Dr. Yang Shi-Nin had successively been the deans of the Department of Electronic Engineering, thus head of the Information and Computer Sector. After 1973, the deans had been successively officiated by Dr. Yang Shi-Nine, Dr. Wang Huang-San, Dr. Hsieh Tsai-Ming, Dr. Chung Bin-Shyan, Dr. Liu Chung-Shyan, Dr. Hsia Yen-Teh , Dr. Tu Chu-Kuei., Dr. Tsai Ming-Dar, Dr. Tyan Hsiao-Rong, Dr. Chang Yuan-Hsiang, and SLO-LI CHU. Under the leadership of all successive deans, all plans of the department have been implemented.
Every year the Department holds two 4-year daily undergraduate classes and one master class and about 157 students were enrolled. In the year 2020, the department had 550 students.
Mission(SDGs 9: Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure)The Department was established to train excellent talents in information and computer technology who have the characteristics of honesty, responsibility and creativeness. Therefore, training of information and computer engineers emphasizes the combination of theory and practice as well as balanced perfectibility education. Graduates are expected to have the professional competence of the outstanding information and computer engineer; to efficiently handle the practical and theoretical problems in information and computer system, and solve various information and computer related problems.
The mission of the Information and computer engineering program are to help the student with: Educating students to become the best quality professionals with integrity, responsibility and Creative characteristics.
-
Influencing students to develop their skill with training.
-
Focus and balance between theory and practice.
-
Giving a balanced holistic education.
