College Features

Educational Mission

All departments of the college have passed the Engineering Education Certification (IEET). The educational goal is to cultivate engineering professionals in the semiconductor industry with both technological and humanistic qualities. To cultivate scientific and technological talents with an international outlook, the focus of the instruction is to enhance students' professional research and practical ability,upgrade their spirit of general education and ethics, and emphasize the core values of “combining knowledge with capability and learning with application.”

 

Educational Features

1. 1.To promote the upgrading of the industry by implementing the integrity of the technical and vocational education system.
2. 2.To train skillful professionals by developing a college with an integrated engineering technology.
3. 3.To cultivate high-tech engineering talents equipped with the innovative integration capabilities required by Taiwan in the 21st century.
4. 4.The teaching priorities are to cultivate scientific and technological talents with an international outlook by guiding them to do professional research, enhancing their practicum knowledge, and engaging them in general education and ethics.
5. 5.To emphasize “combining knowledge with capability and learning with application.”

 

The Developmental Objectives of the Departments

The objectives for the development of each department of the college not only are to continue the objectives held before the school’s reorganization as Minghsin University of Science and Technology (MUST), but also to meet the needs of economic development and industry by recruiting teachers with practical experience and expertise, purchasing equipment required for teaching and research, and fully developing the established characteristics. Each department aims to match the government's demands for the emerging industry by cultivating both middle- and high-level professionals for Taiwan. In addition, to improving the effectiveness of cross-disciplinary teaching, each department of the college has successively added professional courses and programs to the curriculum, including the Optoelectronic Flat Panel Display Course, the RFID Basic Application Technology Course, the Green Technology Course, the Digital Convergence Course, the System Chip Design and Semiconductor Program, the Semiconductor Program, and the Integrated Circuit Packaging and Testing Program. These and other professional credit programs are advancing the goals of the "professionalization", "internationalization" and "practicality" of the college's teaching.

 

The Department of Electrical Engineering originally had two major directions: power electronics and communication control. In the future, it will focus on automatic control and electromechanical integration. The original development direction of the Department of Electronic Engineering was integrated circuit layout, semiconductor packaging and testing, and microcontroller applications. The Department of Electrical Engineering was synchronized with the Department of Optoelectronic Engineering and renamed the “Department of Semiconductor and Electro-Optical Technology.” It focuses on semiconductor manufacturing technology and optoelectronic engineering. The Department of Chemical Engineering and Materials Technology was simultaneously renamed the Department of Applied Materials Science and Technology, adding a specialization in semiconductor materials application and analysis testing to the original chemical engineering program. The Ph.D. Program in Semiconductor Technology cultivates high-level scientific and technological talents for the industry.

 

Integrated Laboratories

The integration of the laboratories in the School of Semiconductor Technology is on the one hand to effectively coordinate cross-field teaching and research resources, and on the other hand to horizontally restructure the current faculty, teaching resources and research equipment of each department. In addition to providing technical services in the industry, more importantly, practicum labs and teachers’ research rooms are to be set up in each department. Each practicum lab can provide students opportunities to meet the requirements of the college-based courses and programs so that they can effectively gain more knowledge about the field while taking courses at MUST. At present, the college has a Task-Oriented Electronic Materials and Process Integrated Lab to effectively use the funds provided by the Ministry of Education (M.O.E.) which subsidizes the development of key characteristic projects in universities of higher education and actively promotes cross-department integrated projects.
