Through the accomplishment of this goal, we aim to elevate the consciousness of national defense for the people through cultivation in subtle manners.

(1).Military Training Courses: In the military training course for freshmen, there are 6 major areas, which are compulsory course with no credits. For the sophomore, junior, or senior, there are elective courses for their choices. According to the curriculum, there are two military training courses in the general education curriculum in each semester respectively. They are “Introduction to War” and “Seminar of National Defense Report” in the first semester; and the “Analysis of the History of War” and “Sun Tzu’s Military Strategy” in the second semester. The student can get two credits in each course, accumulating 4 credits in total, which are regarded as graduation credits.

(2).Life Counseling: Through regular visit to the students living off-campus, we are able to understand their living conditions in the aspects of, “fire safety equipment,” “harmonious relationship with the neighbors,” “adaptation to life,” etc. In addition, we regard visiting the students who fell sick, suffered from car accident, and cut class frequently as our first priority. After the visit, if we discover there is any negligence in safety or any other problems, we will report to related departments for further help, In addition, we will keep track of these cases.

(3).Maintenance of Campus Security: Employing the channels as university website, TV wall, departmental flag hoisting ceremony, and military training course, we would like to communicate the messages concerning security to the students. By integrating the functions of different websites, we offer the information concerning campus security, traffic security, off-campus accommodation security, catering security, etc. to the students. By constructing the campus security website, we communicate the security guidelines and provide download of different forms. In addition, we offer a forum for the students and faculties to exchange their perspectives and tell all the people on campus the information on new cases. For the doubts of the students and faculties, we will answer their questions or handle the matters immediately to consolidate campus security.

In each academic year, we sponsor fire drills, earthquake drills, disaster drills, escape (evacuate) from tall buildings exercise (including the operation of descending device), to intensify their students’ ability in handling emergencies and accomplish goals of preventing disasters from happening. Likewise, the campus can be free from major disasters.
