Aims of Education
The School of Science holds that
college education should be given in a
way that is simple, practical and
realistic. The content of the courses is
designed in response to the diversity of
the students’ potentials and social
dynamics, all in order to ensure
well-balanced moral and intellectual
development of the students through the
specialization programs and the general
education.
Characteristics of Curriculum and
Instruction
Basic science is the cornerstone of
various technologies and industries. The
content of the courses and the way of
instruction aim at cultivating
scientific talents with technical skills
and clear thinking. The School's
curricula allow for a gradual transition
from an introductory to an advanced
level. In the freshman, sophomore and
junior years, the students have to
complete the required courses from low
level to upper level, while they can
also take elective courses. All
departments in the School require
students to take Seminar or Special
Topic Research courses. Theory and
experimentation are both emphasized,
with theory serving as the foundation of
practice and experimentation the ability
to combine hands with the brain.
Particular attention is paid to maintain
laboratory safety, train professional
skills, and at the same time enhance
humanistic understanding, so that
students will be well qualified to make
contributions to society after
graduating from the University. |
