教學目標
This course aims to provide students a picture of Taiwan in the context of globalization. Throughout the history, Taiwan has always been impacted by globalization. In fact, the very names “Taiwan” and “Formosa” themselves are the products of globalization. One may have a totally different understanding of Taiwan in the perspective of globalization.

This course traces the history of Taiwan since the paleolithic age to the 21st century and offer explanations from the view of globalization. This course will provide an opportunity for students to explore the interactions and the political and economic calculations of the actors.

This course offers local students a new view of their homeland and introduce international students a historic tour of this beautiful island.

Field trips to historic scenes are included.

教學目標
To increase student knowledge of theories and practices dealing with marketing management. The project management has been well developed during the past two decades. Right now in the United States most big coeporations have demanded that for those managers wanted to be promoted to mid-level and senior executives should possess certificates of project management. The main purpose of this course is to teach undergrade and graduate students understanding theory and applications of project management. Specific methods such as net present value, internal rate of return, payback period, life cycle costing, cost-benefit analysis, and regression analysis will be presented in details.

教學目標
This year-long course provides a rigorous foundation in microeconomic theory, exploring how individual economic agents—consumers, firms, and resource owners—make optimal decisions under scarcity, and how these choices interact within various market structures. The objective is to equip students with the analytical tools, mathematical models, and strategic thinking necessary to evaluate the efficiency of resource allocation, analyze competitive and imperfect-market behaviors, and assess the welfare impacts of public policy interventions. In the first semester, we will focus on consumer theory, market equilibrium, and the welfare effects of government policy. Students will explore how consumers maximize utility within budget constraints to derive market demand, and how firms minimize costs and maximize profits based on technological and financial constraints to determine market supply. In the second semester, we will move beyond individual choices to analyze how buyers and sellers interact across different market environments. Students transition from perfectly competitive markets to price-setting environments with market power, exploring monopolies, price discrimination, and strategic behavior through game-theoretic models such as Cournot, Bertrand, and Stackelberg competition.

教學目標
This course introduces students to the economic analysis of the family. We will study how households make decisions regarding marriage, fertility, education, labor supply, household production, and intergenerational transfers. The course emphasizes the application of microeconomic theory and empirical methods to understand family behavior and its implications for labor markets, inequality, and public policy. A short paper is required for this course.
