Every academic institution in the nation is dealing with issues of diversity, marketing, a low birth rate and insufficient funding, which has lead to the need to create more academic alliances in order to strengthen the possibilities of the future. A wide variety of concrete and effective exchange agreements with many institutions are needed in order to guarantee academic prosperity. On June 18th Jin He High School, Yong Ping High School, Zhu Wei Gao Ji High School and Yong Quan Gao Ji High School signed a strategic agreement with Tamkang University to design a project that focuses on second language study, international activities, and the concept of older students assisting younger student learning.

Dean of Academic Affairs, Huan-chao Keh, expressed, “It is my hope that this alliance can create a model of cooperation as we combine our resources, promote the development of excellence and increase our students’ competitive abilities.” Huan-chao Keh mentioned that the schools will work together for an extended period of time, assisting in areas such as Multidisciplinary Ability Assessment, Specified Subject Testing and High School Level English Listening Exams. Huan-chao Keh also stated that the cooperation would cover five main areas: curriculum support, professor development, social group cooperation, fundamental development and international education.

President Flora Chia-I Chang stated, “This alliance has been brought together in accordance of the Ministry of Education’s plan of the University and High School Academic Unification Project and also the Sharing of Regional Academic Resources Project. We at Tamkang University wholeheartedly welcome these four schools into our academic family. After President Chang’s speech the four high school principals offered their gratitude to Tamkang University for this opportunity and eagerly anticipate working together.
