📖 Introduction

Nan Hua University is a university located in Dalin Township, Chiayi County, Taiwan. Founded in 1996 as the Nanhua College of Management, it was elevated to university status in 1999. The university was founded by the Buddhist monk Hsing Yun of Fo Guang Shan. Funded through the support of millions of Fo Guang Shan followers, NHU is the first comprehensive and multidisciplinary university established by Fo Guang Shan. NHU is a member of the Fo Guang Shan International University Consortium, the country’s first cross-nation university system.

NHU's educational philosophy is based on the principles of diligence, honesty, and humility. These principles are the defining qualities and driving force at NHU to cultivate students to realize their goals, make a leading contribution to society, and serve the disadvantaged and underprivileged. The curricula and programs offered at NHU center around Life Education, Environmental Sustainability, Intellectual Innovation, and the Three Acts of Goodness initiative.

🏫 About Nan Hua University

Academic and cultural exchanges are key drivers for students to advance their studies beyond the classroom. Nan Hua University’s guiding endeavor is to cultivate students to seek knowledge and enjoy learning by experiencing, interacting, and engaging with different cultures and people. NHU has numerous partner universities worldwide, and the university continue to initiate collaborative programs across all disciplines with the aim of providing more opportunities for students to expand their outlook on the world.
 
By harnessing NHU’s rich intellectual and collaborative resources, students have a unique opportunity, through the 2+2 Program, to obtain two graduation certificates from NHU and a partner university. After completing the first two years of their studies at NHU, the 2+2 Program allows students to complete their final two years at an NHU partner university. There are also shorter-term exchange programs during the summer and winter breaks with, among others, Cambridge, UC Berkeley, University of the West, and Nan Tien Institute. 

The Three Acts of Goodness initiative – Do Good Deeds, Speak Good Words, Think Good Thoughts, is one of his most important initiatives on campus. Steeped in humanistic culture and values, NHU has always had a great reputation of caring and serving others, particularly in neighboring and disadvantaged communities. The establishment of the National Life Education Center in NHU, a government-commissioned project, marked the culmination of years of tirelessly promoting programs in life education and character education together with the Three Acts of Goodness initiative on campus. At NHU, in addition to its role in education, life education and humanistic values form an integral part of all activities and events. The adoption of life education on campus has had a profound effect in enriching the lives of faculty, students, and administrative personnel.
