Department of Applied Foreign Languages at Chin Min Institute of Technology.

The Department of Applied Foreign Languages was established in 1995 with the English Section of the Five-year Program in the Day Division. In the following year, the Japanese Section was added to the program and the English Section of the Two-year Program in the Day Division was established. In the 2003-2004 academic year, the department began recruiting students for Continuing Education evening classes in the Two-year Program, and the Department’s Continuing Education Division was established the following year. In the beginning, the Department only had two Five-year Program classes, but by 2005 this had expanded to include eight classes (one Five-year Program class, three Two-year Program English Section classes and two Japanese Section classes, two Continuing Division classes, and one Continuing Education

evening class). For the 2006-2007 academic year, an upper-level Two-year Bachelor’s Program Evening and Continuing Education class will be added, raising the status of the Department. An application will be made in 2007 to establish a formal four-year Bachelor’s program for a university department. To complement national policies of globalization, free trade, and developing Taiwan’s high technology, the Department aims to cultivate students who have an intermediate command of foreign languages as well as related practical skills in computer technology and business. As for teaching, in addition to reinforcing student training in speaking, listening, writing, translation, and computer skills in English and Japanese, students take complementary courses in business so that they achieve the benefits and success when applying their specialization in languages to the field of business and industry after graduation.
