Sources

  • Departments by Colleges https://nthu-en.site.nthu.edu.tw/p/404-1003-77287.php

    The official NTHU academics site lists departments and programmes by college, including Science, Engineering, Nuclear Science, Humanities and Social Sciences, Life Sciences and Medicine, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, Technology Management, Education, Arts, Semiconductor Research, Tsing Hua College and the International Bachelor Degree Program.

    The page gives the institutional address as No. 101, Section 2, Kuang-Fu Road, Hsinchu 300044, Taiwan R.O.C.

    Model elements: this source is used for institution identity, location and the baseline department/programme structure.

  • International admission departments https://apply.nthu.edu.tw/en/department/list

    The official international admission site lists undergraduate departments and interdisciplinary programmes for applicants, including the Department of Mathematics, Department of Chemistry, Department of Physics, Department of Chemical Engineering, Department of Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management, Department of Materials Science and Engineering, and Interdisciplinary Program of Sciences.

    A Department of Mathematics page states that the department offers undergraduate programmes in pure and applied mathematics and also master's and doctoral programmes.

    Model elements: admissions are still organised around departments and approved interdisciplinary programme entries; this does not by itself prove an open programme.

  • National Tsing Hua University Academic Regulations https://academic.site.nthu.edu.tw/var/file/7/1007/img/5530/AcademicRegulations20251212.pdf

    Article 17 states that NTHU uses an academic-year-based credit system with a four-year programme length requirement for all departments and degree programmes, and that departments and degree programmes have a minimum credit requirement of 128 credits.

    Model elements: this source sets the normal undergraduate duration at 4 years. Extension rules and post-baccalaureate second-degree rules were not used as normal bachelor duration.

  • Academic Path and Multiple Majors https://curricul.site.nthu.edu.tw/p/404-1208-165833.php?Lang=en

    NTHU Division of Curriculum compares Interdisciplinary Program, Minor, Double Major and Change of Major.

    For minors, the page says the diploma states the names of the major and minor programmes. For double majors, it says the diploma states the names of both the original major and the second major programme.

    The page also states that double-major students complete all obligatory courses defined by the second major programme and that graduation requires at least 40 credits more than each major programme requires.

    Model elements: this directly supports programChoice 4, because NTHU documents a formal second-major route above major/minor.

  • Regulations Governing Double Major Studies https://academic.site.nthu.edu.tw/var/file/7/1007/img/4108/16-NationalTsingHuaUniversityRegulationsGoverningDoubleMajorStudies.pdf

    The official double-major regulations state that bachelor programme students may apply to study in bachelor programmes of other departments or programmes of NTHU and another school as double majors.

    They require students to complete the minimum graduation credits and conditions of the major department or programme and all required professional subjects and credits of the double-major department or programme.

    For bachelor double majors, graduation credits must exceed the higher minimum of the two programmes by more than 40 credits.

    Model elements: this confirms that double major is a governed academic route, not just a label attached to a predefined interdisciplinary degree.

  • Intercollegiate Course Selection https://curricul.site.nthu.edu.tw/p/404-1208-167104.php?Lang=en

    The official Division of Curriculum page gives procedures for NTHU students taking courses at schools affiliated with the University System of Taiwan and at other universities.

    Rendered page content states that approved inter-campus course selections appear in the student's individual course registration file, inter-campus credits are combined with NTHU credits for fee calculation, and courses selected without departmental and university approval do not count toward credits and grades.

    Model elements: this is an internal and domestic cross-registration pathway for credit-bearing external courses, and it reinforces courseChoice 4.

  • Regulations for Selection of Overseas Exchange Students https://oga.site.nthu.edu.tw/var/file/524/1524/img/859612496.pdf

    The official OGA regulations say students may apply for credit transfer under NTHU Academic Credit Transfer Guidelines before going abroad.

    Exchange students must retain NTHU student status while abroad, pass at least three undergraduate courses per semester at the sister school, submit a report card within one month after returning, and apply for credit transfer at their department or institute.

    Strict cross-registration review: overseas exchange and later credit transfer are treated only as secondary context. The courseChoice 4 basis is the Intercollegiate Course Selection route for credit-bearing courses at other Taiwanese universities.

  • Outbound Exchange Application guideline Fall 2026 and Spring 2027 https://oga.site.nthu.edu.tw/var/file/524/1524/img/OutboundExchangeApplicationguidelineFall2026&Spring2027.pdf

    The application guideline says students must check sister-school academic and language requirements and whether there is a corresponding programme for their professional background.

    Its proposed schedule includes obtaining an academic transcript from the overseas university, completing credit transfer and submitting required documents after returning.

    Strict cross-registration review: this outbound exchange application guideline is not used as the decisive basis for courseChoice 4; it remains only context for international mobility.
