Introduction

       Interdisciplinary Program of Science was founded in 2008 and it was the first joint program at National Central University.

​

       Today’s society requires a broad professional range and interdisciplinary abilities. As such, Interdisciplinary Program of Science is an integrative program that provides both in-depth studies through “Focus area” courses and versatility training through interdisciplinary elective courses. When new students enroll in our class, they are not placed into any particular department or a specific field in the first year. This is to enable the students to have sufficient time to explore their interests and abilities.

​

       The courses in their first year emphasize on language, logic, basic science, and cultural literacy with additional training on independent study and research. The courses in the sophomore to senior years adopt the ‘research-oriented teaching’ methods: each student will take professional courses from one specific field while emphasizing cross-disciplinary learning. The elective course selection is more flexible than that of the students in host departments.

​

Courses

       Each student has to choose one of the six focus areas: Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Optics and Photonics, Life Science, and Biomedical Science and Engineering. Meanwhile, students are required to take fundamental courses and “Focus area” courses.
