National Taiwan Ocean University

About University

Welcome to National Taiwan Ocean University

National Taiwan Ocean University (NTOU) was established in 1953 as Provincial Taiwan Maritime Technology College. Eleven years later, in 1964, we became a maritime college that offered bachelor’s and master’s degrees in various maritime fields. During this period, the college was supported by the Taiwan Provincial Government of the Republic of China. In 1979, we became a national institution and were renamed the National Taiwan College of Marine Science and Technology. A decade later, in 1989, the college became a full-fledged university. At present, NTOU has six colleges – Maritime Science and Management, Life Sciences, Ocean Science and Resource, Engineering, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, as well as Humanities and Social Sciences.

Location – Keelung City, Taiwan

These Colleges house a total of 29 undergraduate departments and graduate institutions. As we look at the growth over the past 61 years, the University has undergone a great development and transformation and is now recognized as one of the nation’s most important centers of high learning and scholarship, especially in the marine sciences, maritime studies, and fisheries. Responding to the changing needs of society and the widening interests of our students, we are emerging into a comprehensive university with a unique maritime focus. We aim to be an internationally known institution of higher education. Towards this end, our social sciences and liberal arts programs are developing as a core part of education at NTOU. The University is rapidly moving toward providing a positive learning environment and culture for intellectual and personal growth, with ocean interests as our unique characteristic.
