History

In 1965, Mr. Chun-yaun Cheng, Mr. Chin-Ko Kung, and Mr. Ching-sheng Li established this school by Cheng Cing Lake. The School name Cheng-Shiu was derived from the classic Chinese philosophy of Cheng-Hsin (righteousness) and Shiu-Sen (fortitude), while Unto Perfection is the school motto. In 2003, the School was restructured as a university and it was officially upgraded as Cheng-Shiu University.

The School advocates the philosophy of Pragmatic Innovation and the Pursuit of Excellence, positioning itself as a Pragmatic and Innovative Industrial University. Building on the current teaching research foundation and industry-academia technical collaboration, CSU integrates Innovation with Pragmatism and Industry with the Campus to demonstrate the School’s pragmatic and innovative characteristics, as well as provide teachers and students with the best teaching and learning environment. In recent years, CSU has continued to uphold the mission of Equal Emphasis on Theory and Practice and Technology Integration to train students’ practical skills, enhance the teachers’ practical research, and collaborate with the industry to engage in relevant R&D.

　　本校提倡「務實創新‧追求卓越」之理念，將學校定位為「具有務實與創新之產業教學型大學」，積極配合國家經建政策及工商資訊發展需要，在既有教學研究基礎與產學合作技術之下，融合「創新」與「務實」，連結「產業」與「校園」，充分展現學校務實創新特色，提供教師與學生最佳教學與學習情境。近年來亦持續增廣「理論與實務並重」及「科技整合」之使命，致力培養學生實務能力，強化教師實務研發，與業界緊密合作進行相關研究發展。
