IMBA Program Curriculum Guide IMBA Program Curriculum Guide 國際經營管理英語碩士學位學程 課程手冊 As a national university, National Chengchi University is under the authority of the ministry of Education (MOE), which is the highest authority responsible for formulating and enforcing Taiwan’s education policies and regulations. The education system in Taiwan is centralised. All Bachelor, Master’s and Ph.D. programs have to be approved by MOE (including new programs and revisions to existing programs). All the degrees offered by NCCU are fully accredited and recognized by the MOE. The MOE also provides a considerable part of universities’ funding for infrastructure, operations, and research. In addition the MOE also sets tuition fees as well as student enrollment quatas for universities. NCCU (and NCCUC) have to follow the rules and regulations laid down by the MOE. However, it is important to note that higher education institutions are granted the right to run their education programs with autonomy, and are encouraged to innovate and operate within the regulatory framework. Moreover, NCCUC has worked diligently to maintain its strategic autonomy and mitigate differences through constant dialogue with the government. National ChengChi University was established in 1927 in Nanjing, China, as a training institute for civil servants. It was later renamed the Central School of Political Affairs and later National Chengchi University. In 1949, the university moved to Taiwan. Recognizing the need for professional business knowledge, the University began expanding its offerings establishing the International Trade Department in 1957 and the College of Commerce in 1958. Since its inception, NCCU’s College of Commerce (NCCUC) has led business education in Taiwan. The College currently has eight departments offering undergraduate degrees, eight specialised Masters Degrees, MBA degrees, and nine doctoral programs.
