Base on the belief of holistic education, Graduate Institute of Education was founded in 2000.
Its' purpose is to promote and empower professional life of teachers, administrators and educational
researchers. By inquiring into education issues, this program is aimed to help students develop their
professional abilities in education. By widely discussing and immersing in the diverse learning environment
of TunghaiUniversity, students here are encouraged to think critically and to demonstrate the essential
characteristics of an excellent and effective teacher. This program provide 3 main research fields: curriculum
and instruction, elderly & life education, and educational policy and leadership. Flexibility in related coursework
permits students to develop an interdisciplinary perspective, reflective practice as well as depth in one field.
Our faculty members have been committed to educational research and teacher training for secondary schools
in Taiwan. This program creates a research environment in several ways, including organize conferences in
a variety of fields, invite speakers to offer lectures and speeches and encourage discussion and research
publication. People who wish to be a teacher in secondary school, or work in educationally-related institute,
such as government educational agencies, publishing house and social service fields which provide educational
services for children and young adults may join us. This program also provides an important first step for graduate
students who wish to pursue a doctorate and become scholars and teachers at the university level. Full-time
students and in-service teachers are both welcomed to apply.
