The department of Civil Engineering at National Taiwan University (NTU-CE) was founded in 1945 and has since been the largest and leading one among all Civil Engineering departments in Taiwan. The department has access to a number of well-established world-class research facilities and NTU-CE faculty and alumni partake in planning, design and construction of many well-known national public projects in Taiwan. Having a close-knit network with the government, academia, and industries, NTU-CE establishes a multilateral platform and promotes interdisciplinary collaboration. It has not only been accredited by the Washington Accord but also ranked 29 in the 2018 QS World University Rankings by Subject in Civil and Structural Engineering. It also offers fully English-taught programs for both undergraduate and graduate degrees.

International applicants are encouraged to apply, as we are committed to fostering future international leaders in both practice and academia. Currently, there are several funding opportunities and special stipends especially for junior faculties from Taiwan’s Ministry of Science and Technology and Ministry of Education. The Department will assist our new faculties in applying for these specific grants/stipends.
