Shih Chien University, formerly known as Shih Chien College of Home Economics,
was founded in 1958 by Mr. Tung-Min Shieh. The name “Shih Chien,” which in
Chinese means “practice”, was originated from the belief of Wang Yangming, a great
Chinese philosopher: “Knowledge is the beginning of practice. Doing is the completion
of knowing”(1498).
Today, the University is made up of the College of Human Ecology, the College of
Design and the College of Management. The University has one campus in Taipei and
another in Kaohsiung and is home to approximately 15,000 students and 700 faculty
and staff.
Over the past 50 years, Shih-Chien has established strong visibility and is well
renowned among the Taiwanese and international universities. The School of
Design has commenced many collaborative programs with Harvard University and
Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
