About STUST

Southern Taiwan University of Science and Technology (STUST)

Located near the southwest coast of Taiwan in Tainan City, Southern Taiwan University of Science and Technology (STUST) is a competitive international university dedicated to providing students with a well-rounded education in both the humanities and technology.

Founded in 1969, STUST  quickly moved from a junior college of technology to a full-fledged university with an emphasis on both teaching and research. STUST’s four colleges—The College of Engineering, The College of Business, The College of Digital Design, and the College of Humanities and Social Sciences—together offer 23 undergraduate programs, 22 master’s programs and three doctoral programs. Currently, we have over 18,300 students enrolled in these programs, of which 179 are international students hailing from 21 different countries.  Our faculty of nearly 600 strives to establish a strong global mindset and independent thinking in all of our students.
