A Brief History of the Department
The Department of Philosophy can trace its origin back to the Philosophical Section in the Division of Liberal Arts and Political Science of Taihoku Imperial University during the Japanese colonial period. The Department is established formally in 1945 after the end of World War II, starting its MA program in 1957 and Ph. D. program in 1985.
The Aim of the Department
The department of philosophy is set to educate students with philosophical knowledge and virtues, enabling them to handle general values, construct adequate views of person and of the world, equip themselves with humanity literacy and critical thinking, take care of peoples and, make contributions to the society.
The Department's Faculties, Students, Publications and Activities
The Department, with all of its selected faculties, aims to educate philosophical professionals, taking a balanced concentration on the studies of both Western and Eastern philosophies.
The Bachelor program is a unified training, whereas the Master and Ph.D. programs are, under the requirements of in-depth trainings, divided into two sections: the Western and Eastern philosophies. The Department publishes a biannual journal, National Taiwan University Philosophical Review, two issues published respectively in March and October.
