Major in Social Welfare
- We train professionals needed for the booming elderly related industry and elderly welfare system. As the Prolonged Welfare Insurance System for the Elderly is enforced, we have also enforced the majors relating to social welfare for the elderly. Moreover, youth related subjects have been added in order to meet the needs and demands of the young within the social welfare system. We also train students to become professional workers in youth related areas.
Major in Multi-cultural Social Welfare
- We train professionals who can adjust flexibly to the reality that this society is rapidly changing into a multi-cultural society. We train students to become on-site leaders in a multi-cultural society: leaders who possess professionalism, knowledge, ability and who can resolve multi-cultural related conflicts and contribute to the social oneness of a multi-cultural society.
