On July 4, Global Views Monthly published its 2017 University Rankings in Taiwan. Tzu Ci University is in 20th<\/sup> place overall, 6th<\/sup> best among the private universities and the only one on the east coast that reached the top 20. In addition, TCU is in 15th<\/sup> place in academic reputation, up three places from 2016. TCU doesn\u2019t receive as many funds from the Ministry of Education, as other universities do, yet we try our best, and thus TCU\u2019s ranking is better than many other public or private universities, which have longer histories than we do.<\/p>\n

TCU is the only university on the east coast which reached the top 20. President Pen-Jung Wang said our goal is to prepare professionals who are committed to lifelong learning, analytical and critical thinking, and working with others, so we invited outstanding scholars in Taiwan, and from overseas to join us, and are grateful for continuous support from Tzu Chi Foundation which provided our students and faculty members with an excellent learning and research environment. We feel honored that TCU is in the 15th place in both teaching and academia.<\/p>\n
