Graduate Institute of Architecture
Introduction to the Institute
The purpose of establishing this institute is to cultivate the architectural creative talents of its students. “Architecture” here is defined as the entire human living environment while “architecture art” indicates the intentional actions and corresponding results that human contribute for molding their living environment. The emphasis of “art” is used for a clear distinction to other normal architecture institutes. The institution does not aim to create professional architects, but rather, it focuses on certain environmental art topics to attract talents who are interested, and then applies deeper and more effective training to reinforce their creative abilities. The implementation of this training in society is always emphasized in its teaching. It displays artistic expression through exhibitions, artistic activities, or communal events, so that the achievements of teachers and students can be affirmed by both the Taiwanese and international society.
