Established in 1985, the Department of Marine Engineering is a leader in marine engineering education in Taiwan. This Department was separated from the Department of Marine Engineering in the College of Maritime Science to accept students who graduated from either junior colleges or vocational high schools. A BS in marine engineering is provided and a MS program in marine engineering will accept enrollment in the year 2001. A 2-year program for students graduated from junior colleges and a 4-year program for students graduated from vocational high schools both lead to the BS degree. The curriculum is designed to help students to develop professional-level skills in design, manufacturing, inspection, management, operation and maintenance of marine power and auxiliary systems.
Our faculty consists of 5 professors, 7associate professors and 3 lecturers with strong backgrounds in the research and development of marine engineering and technology and related areas. Part-time lecturers are invited as needed to offer their academic and industrial expertise.
