WELCOME TO STUDENTS
MESSAGE FROM THE CHANCELLOR
2015 marks a very important moment of MingDao University (MDU) in pursuit
of excellence in higher education. All the freshmen coming to MDU this year
might see a drastic change in the academic atmosphere and a dedication to
professionalism. In my opinion, this is different from any other university in Taiwan.
Allow me to use the word ‘Globalization’ to highlight what we aim for at MDU. By
this year, the percentage of foreign students at MDU has exceeded 14% of all full
time enrollments. We aim to turn our campus into a small-scale global village. In
addition to our own efforts to comply with the Accrediting Council for Independent
Colleges and Schools (ACICS), we also aim to bring a North American curriculum
to our campus. Our goal is to provide new students with a curriculum fully taught
in English. Students might also enjoy the opportunity to get in touch with different
cultures and languages around the world. So, open up your mind and embrace a
new era of education at MingDao University. We are dedicated to educate and to
shape you for the ever challenging new world ahead of you.
Da-Yung Wang, Ph. D.
Chancellor, MingDao University

LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT
MingDao Unuversity’s educational philosophy was developed by our founder, Dr.
Da-Yung Wang. This education philosophy was inspired by the sentiment of No
Child Left Behind, the education law passed in the United States with bipartisan
support, and it was then applied as an instructional model at MDU. With this
educational model, our students receive an excellent education based in realworld practical training and continuous assessment of their learning, so they can
develop state-of-the-art skills and good virtue, as well as aptitudes to become
entrepreneurs in the 21st century.
As for the historical development of MDU, the creation of MingDao University’s
vision and self-positioning was based on the need to integrate the following three
things: the mid- to long-term development plan to re-coordinate administrative
organs, the University’s demonstrated achievements thus far, and the objective
external trends and challenges facing the University. MingDao University’s earlier
strategy was to be a stand-alone college, founded as the MingDao College of
Management in 2001, and the initial college-type was an instructional institute.
In 2007, the MingDao College of Management was upgraded to the status of
comprehensive university by the Ministry of Education, and renamed MingDao
University. With the new name came a new plan to be an instructional and
integrated research-oriented institute. In 2010, in response to the threat of climate
change to food, water, and energy security, green, organic, and healthy became
the new motto.
By 2015, due to the dramatic decrease of birthrates in Taiwan over the previous
generation, an issue that will strongly impact college enrolment and create new
social issues, a shift in vision for higher education was needed. While continuing
our current projects and building on existing achievements based on the visions of
earlier phases, the new administration, taking international trends, technological
advancement, and societal needs into consideration, has cast a bold vision for a
8
new direction. Thus, in order to become a first-tier institute of higher education, our
new goal for MingDao University is to promote corporate projects, diversity and
internationalization, and instructional excellence.
For the purpose of cultivating future business leaders, we are focused on preparing
our graduates to be capable of managing organizations, not only in the technical
sense, but also by making strategic decisions that will create value and contribute
to business success. We renew our curriculum regularly in order to confirm that we
will keep providing high quality education for everyone in the MDU community. We
have faith that our graduates will develop clear visions, follow their passions, and
take effective actions in making their dreams into realities.
With deep respect,
President
MingDao University

STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
It all started in 1969 when a legendary educator, Mr. Kuang-Ping Wang, built his
first dream school: Mingdao High School (MDH) in central Taiwan. With its humble
beginning of only 300 lowly-achieved students and their unconfident teachers,
MDH quickly excelled to be one of the top high schools of the nation in less than
10 years, with a sizable enrollment of 12500 in 1994. MDH’s success was based on
one reason: great team work under a determined vision from an innovative leader.
According to Mr. Kuang-Ping Wang’s plan, a MingDao School System consisting of
schools extending from the area of early childhood to the post graduate program
will be the ultimate model to testify his education theory based on teacher
motivation, an innovative curriculum, and inspiration to students.
The opportunity called in 1998 when Taiwan government encouraged private
education with a new land grant policy. So, the same legacy continued in 2001,
when Mr. Kuang-Ping Wang and two of his students, Mr. Fu-Hsho Liu and Professor
Da-Yung Wang started the brand new MingDao University in Chang-Hua County,
the agricultural heartland of Taiwan. President Da-Yung Wang, as one of MDU’s
co-founders and Mr. Kuang-Ping Wang’s successor, became the key architect of
MingDao University’s mind and soul. In his 9 year term as President, MDU thrived
among all other 170 existing higher education institutes in Taiwan to be the institute
offering the best Chinese Ph.D. , Post Modern Agriculture, Sustainable Energy
(solar, wind, and hydrogen fuel cell), and Plasma Surface Engineering program.
In 2010, Professor Da-Yung Wang took the role of Chairman of the Board of MDU,
and Professor Shih-Shung Chen assumed the Presidency of MDU. In his four - year
term, organic agriculture was fully developed at MDU with fame and full publicity.
MingDao University started to accelerate its global initiatives by setting up physical
Liaison Offices in London, Kuala Lumpur, Vancouver, Shanghai, Xiamen, and
Thailand. In 2013, the foreign student ratio exceeded 14% of the total full time
enrollment, top of the nation. The whole university has geared up to challenge
the steep drop in Taiwan’s fertility rate. In 2014, Professor Chiu-Shun Kuo became
the new President and started to execute a bold new Five-year Development
Guideline from the Board. In this new strategy, MDU will elevate its global
recognition by pursuing the US higher education accreditation; will reach 50%
foreign student ratio by launching a full English curriculum and degree program;
will outreach by branching out to China, North America, and Southeast Asia; will
stay sustainable and strong by turning into an entrepreneurship-based university
via university-level industrial incubation and campus wise co-op program. Now, in
2015, the story goes on………
10
MISSION
As educators of MingDao University, we are committed to every single student
coming to our school. There is no student too dumb to be enlightened; there is
no student too radical to be civilized; and there is no student too ignorant to be
inspired. Our core value is built upon chivalry, globalization, and entrepreneurship.
MDU vows to be the breeding ground of future leadership with noble characters
and human consideration.
OBJECTIVES OF
MINGDAO UNIVERSITY
Vision
Students and graduates from MDU vow to uphold idealism without hesitation. We
are proud to be part of an elite to serve the society and the global community.
Passion
All great works start from passion, which motivates humble souls to change the
world. We nourish our pure mind through knowledge, courage, and humanity.
Action
Just do it, like many young pioneers in history did. We dare to carry out the most
difficult last mile to score. We build our confidence through determination.

environment, debilitates morale, and interferes with the effectiveness of employees
and students. In accordance with the Ministry of Education’s Regulations,
unwelcome sexual advances, unwanted requests for favors of a sexual nature, and
any other unwanted verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature are considered
22
sexual harassment if:
● Explicit or implicit submission to sexual overtones is made a term or condition of
employment;
● Employment decisions are made on the basis of whether submission to or
rejection of sexual overtones occurred; and
● Sexually intimidating, hostile, or offensive atmosphere unreasonably interferes
with an individual's work performance.
Sexual harassment: cases described by the following and do not constitute as
sexual assaults:
● Unwelcome remarks or conducts that carry explicitly or implicitly a sexual or
gender discriminating connotation and thereby adversely affect the other party’s
human dignity, or the opportunity or performance of her or his learning or work.
● A conduct of sexual or gendered nature that is served as the condition for
oneself or others to gain or lose rights or interests in learning or work.
At MDU, sexual harassment of or by student includes the following:
● Unwelcome or unwanted sexual advances. This includes unwelcome physical
contact or sexual advances considered unacceptable by another individual;
● Requests or demands for sexual favors. This includes subtle or blatant pressures
or requests for any type of sexual favor, accompanied by an implied or stated
promise of preferential treatment or negative consequence concerning one's
employment status or student status;
● Verbal abuse that is sexually-oriented or considered unacceptable by another
individual, as well as sexually derogatory comments. This includes commenting
about an individual's body or appearance when such comments go beyond
mere courtesy, telling jokes that are clearly unwanted and considered offensive
by others, or other tasteless sexually-oriented comments or innuendoes or actions
that offend others;
● Engaging in any type of sexually oriented conduct that would unreasonably
interfere with another's work performance. This includes extending unwanted
sexual attention to someone that reduces personal productivity or time available
to work at assigned tasks; or
● Creating a work environment that is intimidating, hostile, or offensive because of
unwelcome or unwanted sexually-oriented conversations, suggestions, requests,
demands, physical contacts, or attentions.
Normal, non-coercive interaction that is acceptable to both parties is not
considered to be sexual harassment. At MDU, sexual harassment by employees of
students is defined as unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and
other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature when:
● Submission to such conduct is made to appear to be a term or condition of
enrollment, attendance, or participation in a class;
● Submission to or rejection of such conduct affects academic decisions;
23
● Such conduct has the purpose or effect of unreasonably interfering with a
student's academic performance or creating an intimidating, hostile, or offensive
academic environment;
● Unwelcome physical contact, including but not limited to, patting, pinching, or
touching; or
● Offensive or demeaning sexual remarks, jokes, or gestures.
Students aggrieved by a violation of this policy may file a grievance by reporting
the conduct to the gender equity education committee. All allegations of sexual
harassment of or by a student, faculty member, or any other University personnel
will be promptly and thoroughly investigated by the gender equity education
committee. MDU recognizes sexual harassment as an insidious practice and will
not tolerate sexual harassment in any manner or form. Persons sexually harassing
others will be dealt with swiftly and vigorously. Any individual who violates any
portion of this policy shall be subject to disciplinary action up to and including
discharge. It is improper conduct for a MDU faculty member to engage in a
romantic or sexual relationship with a student enrolled in the faculty member's
class or for an employee to engage in a romantic or sexual relationship with a
student that is under the employee’s supervision. Romantic or sexual relationships
between any faculty member and a student then enrolled in the faculty member's
class (including supervised student activities for which academic credit is given)
or between any university employee and a student enrolled in the university may
appear to be coercive and are discouraged. Even when no coercion is present,
such relationships create an appearance of impropriety and favoritism, which
can impair the academic experience of all students in the university environment.
At MDU, romantic and sexual relationships between a faculty member or an
employee and a student are subject to the prohibition against sexual harassment.
Sexual Assault, Sexual Harassment and Sexual Bullying case Principles.
To safeguard the interests of the student's education and developing,to provide
school staff and students to avoid being sexually harassed in a sexual assault or
sexual bullying learning and working environment. Gender Equality Education
Committee organized by students, teacher, staff composition. It accepted
appeals about the sexual harassment, sexual assault or sexual bullying case. (One

application or verbal complaint. Helpline:886-4-8876660#1212 (Bo-ling 2F).
POLICY AGAINST HAZING
In compliance with MOE policy, MDU defines hazing as any act whether physical,
mental, emotional or psychological, which subjects another person, voluntarily or
involuntarily, to anything that may abuse, mistreat, degrade, humiliate, harass, or
intimidate him or her, or which may in any fashion compromise his/her inherent
dignity as a person.
24
Hazing is inherently in conflict with the purpose and goals of MingDao University.
Therefore, such conduct will not be tolerated. Every effort will be made by MDU to
guarantee that students will not be victimized by hazing.
LIBRARY USE POLICY
The library’s policy regarding student borrowing and return of items is posted in
the library. Students are allowed and encouraged to borrow materials from the
library’s general collection. Students are allowed to borrow materials for up to
twenty days. These materials may also be renewed for a period of one month.
The recent inclusion of the library’s collection in an online catalog will permit
computerized circulation procedures in the future. Fines and late fees are assessed
for late items at the rate of 5 NT dollars per book per day. These fees are collected
before the student is allowed to school-leaving procedure. Reference, periodical,
and special collection items may not normally be circulated to students without
special permission; however, special permission may be granted on occasion by
the librarian for reference materials where necessary and appropriate.
COMPUTER USAGE POLICIES
MDU’s computing facilities are provided for the use of registered users. All computer
users are responsible for using the facilities in an effective, efficient, ethical and
lawful manner. The University views the use of computer facilities as a privilege, not
a right, and seeks to protect legitimate computer users by imposing sanctions on
those who abuse the privilege.
COMPUTER USE POLICY
This policy provides guidelines for the appropriate and inappropriate use of the
computing resources of MDU. It applies to all users of the University's computing
resources, including students, faculty, employees, alumni and guests of the
University. Computing resources include all computers, related equipment,
software, data and local area networks for which the University is responsible.
The computing resources of MDU are intended to be used to conduct the
legitimate business of the University. All users must have proper authorization for the
use of the University's computing resources. Users are responsible for seeing that
these computing resources are used in an effective, ethical and legal manner.
Users must apply standards of acceptable academic and professional ethics and
considerate conduct to their use of the University's computing resources. Users
must be aware of the legal and moral responsibility for ethical conduct in the use
of computing resources. Users have a responsibility not to abuse the network and
resources and to respect the privacy, copyrights and intellectual property rights of
others.
25
Computer hardware and software is the property of MDU and the student is
responsible for taking precautions against importing computer viruses or doing
other harm to the computer. It is prohibited to copy university-purchased or leased
software.
EMAIL AND INTERNET USE POLICY
All email communications sent or received at the university should be considered
official university correspondence. Such correspondence is subject to standards
of good taste, propriety, courtesy and consideration. Emails may be retrieved by
the university under certain circumstances, such as an internal investigation as
they are subject to subpoena and discovery in legal proceedings. Respect for
others’ privacy dictates that students should not try to access another individual’s
messages without the individual’s permission.
Most computers at MDU have access to the Internet. It is expected that all
individuals using MDU’s computers will use good judgment in determining the sites
visited and the amount of time spent using the Internet.
RULES CONCERNING USE OF COMPUTERS
The following rules apply to all users of the MDU’s computers. Violations of any
ofthese rules may be possibly unlawful. An individual’s computer use privileges
may be suspended immediately upon the discovery of a possible violation of these
rules:
1.Computer users agree to use facilities and accounts for University related
activities only.
2.Accounts are considered the property of MingDao University.
3.The IT Director or a MDU Administrator working in this capacity must approve all
access to central computer systems, including the issuing of passwords.

appropriate procedures and agents. In cases where a user violates any of the
26
terms of this policy, the University may, in addition to other remedies, temporarily
or permanently deny access to any and all MDU computing resources and
appropriate disciplinary actions may be taken.
COPYRIGHT POLICY
MingDao University is committed to compliance with all National laws regarding
copyright. Copyright is essential a form of protection for individuals who have
developed, created or authored literary, dramatic, musical, artistic, and certain
other intellectual works. This protection is extended to both published, as well as
unpublished works, and is extended to any author, regardless of their nationality or
domicile.
All members of the MDU university – students, faculty and staff members and
administrators – are responsible for complying with the requirements of the
copyright law. It will be assumed that the copyright law applies to all material,
unless one of the following applies:
● The work is in the public domain, including works by the Taiwanese Government
● The use of the work qualifies as fair use under the copyright law
● Prior written permission from the author has been obtained, or appropriate
royalties or licensing fees have been paid in exchange for usage rights

unauthorized use of copyrighted material is called an infringement.
As noted above, national copyright protection is extended to digital media
accessible through the Internet. Uploading or downloading digital material or works
is an infringement of the copyright owner’s exclusive rights. This includes peer-topeer file sharing.
All members of the MDU community who disregard this policy do so at their own risk
and assume any liability, which may include criminal and/or civil penalties. Anyone
found to have infringed a copyrighted work may be liable for statutory damages.
PHOTOGRAPHY POLICY
Intellectual Property
MingDao (“MDU”) library respects intellectual property rights when procuring and
using photographs. We seek written permission from photographers for the use and
reproduction of their photographic art in publications, Web pages and displays.
When appropriate, we purchase the copyright with respect to photographs and
work out agreements for attributing authorship to the photographers.
27
When book cover art, newspaper masts, logos, photographs, illustrations and other
art from sources off-campus are needed for a publication, MDU’s Department of
Community Relations Division staff members seek official permission. If the artwork
is needed for a Web page, a member of MDU’s Web Management and Services
staff researches and completes the online process for permission and release of
the works for reproduction and online use and display.
When the library is aware that photographs taken by MDU students or faculty
are being considered for use in a MDU publication, a staff member contacts the
individual involved for permission to use the photograph. The photographer is
asked to provide a written consent and release for the photo’s reproduction and
use and a mutually acceptable approach to the attribution of authorship issue is
arranged.
Photo Credits
As a general rule, the library avoids the use of photo credits in recruitment
publications. Our usual agreement with our most frequently used photographers
provides MDU with the ownership of the copyrights with respect to the photos from
the shoots we arrange and purchase and use of the photos without printed credit.
When photo credits are stipulated as a part of a purchase of photography, we
include them.
Photo Release
As a condition of their employment with MDU, our faculty and staff are required
to consent to being photographed and grant a perpetual, royalty-free and
irrevocable license to MDU with respect to reproduction, display or other use of
any photographs in connection with their employment with MDU. Students, as
a condition of their enrollment and attendance at MDU, also consent to being
photographed on campus and grant a perpetual, royalty-free and irrevocable
license to MDU with respect to reproduction, display or other use of any
photographs depicting them on campus or in connection with their coursework at
MDU.
Still or video photo shoots may be informal (candid shots of campus scenes,
athletic events, performance groups, large groups or activities) or formal (planned
visits to classrooms, laboratories or offices; directory shoots or athletics headshots
with professional backgrounds; or video shoots on campus) in nature. All such
photographic images taken by MDU faculty or staff and the copyrights with
respect thereto are and/or become the property of MDU’s Library.
The digital photos or video footage are added to the University’s library of images,
which becomes a resource for the University’s Web site and publications.
Informal Photo Shoots
28
The Library attempts to inform the campus when informal photography projects are
under way. Announcements are made through the campus newspaper, and/or in
some instances signs are posted in areas of the campus.
Formal Photo Shoots
When a request is received or a need arises for images of particular individuals
or settings, a library staff member contacts the appropriate faculty member or
department to schedule the photographer. Preferring a natural, realistic approach,
MDU seldom stages its photographs.
Faculty members are encouraged to inform classes of the impending photo shoot.
The faculty member will be supplied with an announcement to be made to the
class with suggestions for making the shoot as effective as possible.
The faculty member is asked to permit the photographer to make an
announcement upon arrival at the classroom. The photographer will introduce
himself, briefly explain his purpose and allow students who wish not to be
photographed to move to a part of the room that will not be included in the
photos. Students not wishing to participate must inform the photographer of their
unwillingness prior to the photograph being taken.
Students participating in a photo shoot are giving their permission for the photos
to be used as the University sees fit by participating in the photo shoot. Students
are permitted to opt out of the photo shoot, if that is their choice, by informing the
photographer in advance of the photo being taken and removing themselves
from the photo shoot area.
Choice Of Photos
Library staff members, in consultation as possible with requesting departments, are
responsible for choosing images on behalf of MDU for use on the University Website,
University publications and in University video projects. Occasionally images are
shared with outside entities making requests.
Choices for photographs are made with great sensitivity to the following:
● the goal for the message(s) to be communicated,
● the quality of the photo,
● providing a truthful representation of the University, and
● the impact of the photo on the audience’s perception of MDU
Although we attempt to be as objective as we can in our photo choices, we
recognize that making photograph selections is a subjective task. If a photo does
not meet MDU’s qualifications, rather than compromising the reputation of MDU by
utilizing a photograph that is inadequate or inappropriate, a photo shoot will be
rescheduled to obtain an appropriate photo.
29
Ways to Opt Out of Photos Being Published
Directory Listings: Faculty and staff may choose not to publish their photos (or
personal information) by making their preference known in writing to staff of the
library at MDU. Make sure to update your personal information for use in MDU’s
directories.
Formal Shoots: After arranging a photo shoot, the library provides an
announcement that faculty members may use to make their classes aware of
the scheduled time for the shoot. The photographer will make an announcement
allowing students to opt out of the shoot by informing the photographer in
advance of the photograph being taken and moving to another part of the room
if that is their choice.
Procedures to Have a Photo Removed From Use
Concerns about the use of individual images on the Web site or photos in
print publications may be communicated to the library. We will try to resolve
individual complaints while still meeting the important goal of visually representing
the University. We ask your patience in this process. Expense is sometimes a
consideration in our ability to change a photograph; sometimes an inventory of
printed publications must be exhausted before the change can be put in place.
With respect to claims of copyright infringement relating to photographs shown
on our Web site, we have a Designated Agent to receive notices of such claims
and written procedures to deal with such claims in accordance with the Digital
Millennium Copyright Act.
REGISTERING COMPLAINTS
AGAINST UNIVERSITY
EMPLOYEES
GRIEVANCE PROCEDURES
If any student deems it necessary to file a grievance against a Ming Dao
employee he or she must report such incident to the Office of Student Affairs.
Every effort will be made to protect the privacy of any parties involved. The
student is entitled and encouraged to have an informal discussion with the head
of the Center of Guidance and Counseling. If an informal conversation does not
result in a satisfactory resolution, or if you are not comfortable speaking about
30
the matter with the Head, then the student should discuss the situation with the
employee’s supervisor or the Director of the Office of Student Affairs. In cases of
discrimination or sexual harassment, MDU encourages the student to go directly
to the employee’s supervisor or Director of the Office of Student Affairs. Any
complaint that is not in writing, that is, a verbal complaint, is considered an informal
complaint.
After an informal discussion, if the student wishes to file a formal grievance, he/she
may submit such in writing to the Center of Guidance and Counseling. However,
before filing a formal charge, the complaining party should first make a good faith
effort to meet and confer with the party against whom he or she has a complaint in
an effort to resolve the matter. The formal report should contain a statement of the
problem or complaint, the facts and details of the situation, pertinent dates and
the names and positions of the parties involved. The grievance must be signed and
dated. Also, student may withdraw a complaint at any time during the complaint
process. A withdrawal must be made in writing to the Center of Counseling and
Guidance.
Upon receipt of a written formal complaint by a student, the Office of Student
Affairs will hold a appeal meetingt to discuss the complaint. After such an
investigation, the members of appeal committee will make a determination as to
whether the grievance has merit as alleged. If the alleged grievance is deemed
justified, MDU will take whatever steps it deems appropriate to correct any
grievance suffered by the complaining student.
REMEDIES
If it is determined that a grievance has appropriate support, the persons or
departments that are responsible for such violation will be dealt with in an
appropriate manner by the supervisors or directors of such persons or programs,
in accordance with applicable provisions, if any, of contracts, employment
regulations, faculty and employee handbooks, or the like.
REVIEW BY A REPRESENTATIVE COMMITTEE
The student may appeal determination to an appeal committee consisting of
members of the administration, faculty and student body. This committee has the
right to review determinations and to reverse or amend such decisions.

examinations. Cheating includes falsifying reports and documents. Plagiarism
is defined as the use, without proper acknowledgment, of the ideas, phrases,

Procedures for Handling Cheating and Plagiarism by Students
Any faculty member discovering a case of suspected cheating or plagiarism shall
make a responsible effort to confront the student with the evidence. If the student

student affairs.
● The office of student affairs will inform the student to write a report form on the

Responsibilities of Students Concerning Academic Dishonesty
Students are responsible for knowing the policies regarding cheating and
plagiarism and the penalties for such behavior. Failure of an individual faculty
member to remind the student as to what constitutes cheating and plagiarism
does not relieve the student of this responsibility.
Students must take care not to provide opportunities for others to cheat.
Students must inform a faculty member if cheating or plagiarism is taking place.
DISCIPLINARY STANDINGS
A student’s status with regard to discipline is regulated by the following definitions,
33
which are reflected in each student’s record kept at the office of student affairs.
Good Standing
The status of good standing indicates that a student has been duly enrolled at the
University and is eligible to participate in all activities of the University. A student
is presumed to be in good standing unless the student engages in an established
misconduct.
Warning
This status indicates that a student has been through the judicial process due to the
seriousness of his/her conduct and has been cautioned that further behavior of the
same or similar type will be cause for further disciplinary action by MDU.
Disciplinary Probation
This status indicates that the student’s behavior has raised serious questions
concerning the student’s status as a member of the University community. The
student will be given a stated period during which his/her conduct will establish
whether he/she is to be returned to good standing by having met definite
requirements in behavior or whether he/she is to be suspended or dismissed from
MDU. The sanction of disciplinary probation may be imposed on a student by the
office of student affairs. The student could represent the University or hold office
during the period of probation.
A statement of offense and decision will be placed in the office of student affairs. If,
while on disciplinary probation, a student is found responsible for a further infraction
of University policies/regulations, the student will be subject to the possibility of
suspension/expulsion from Ming Dao University (MDU).
Expulsion
This status, the most serious disciplinary action taken by the University, indicates the
immediate, involuntary and permanent separation of a student from Ming Dao
University because of established gross misconduct on the part of a student.
After notice of expulsion, a student must leave the campus immediately. The
expelled student does not have the privilege to apply for readmission to Ming Dao
University. Statement of offense and decision will be placed in the student’s file
in the office of student affairs. A student’s transcript will include documentation
of expulsion. A student dismissed for disciplinary reasons at any time shall not be
entitled to receive a refund or claim anything.
Appeals to Disciplinary Standings
A student may appeal any of the penalties in writing to the office of student affairs
within ten (10) working days.

time if specified in the sanction letter.
STUDENT DEVELOPMENT
GOALS OF STUDENT DEVELOPMENT
Under the supervision of the Center for Internship Service and Alumni Development,
the University has student services to assist students with their various needs. The
goal of effective and worthwhile student services is to assist students and to directly
involve the students in the affairs of the institution, fostering a sense of community
among students, faculty and administration.
THE ROLE OF THE COUNSELOR
The counselors in each department are instrumental in advising students about
academic and personal issues. The counselors are particularly knowledgeable
about the academic requirements of the various programs to be offered
at the University, and serve as valuable resources for students. All incoming
undergraduate students are required to complete Career and Competency
Assessment (UCAN Network, Ministry of Education), which focuses on helping
students determine a career path, matching their skills and interests.
ACADEMIC ADVISING OF STUDENT
DEVELOPMENT
As previously mentioned, MDU is an institution that emphasizes not only academic
and professional growth, but also personal development and the nurturing of
each student. The Program Head and Center for Internship Service and Alumni
Development advise and mentor students with regards to academic and
professional decisions. In addition, each faculty member is receptive to developing
a professional, yet personal relationship with each student. As such, the students
should feel comfortable, if the need arises, to seek advice of a faculty member
with regards to academic and professional matters.
PLACEMENT SERVICES
Students approaching graduation should contact the Center for Internship
Service and Alumni Development. Students will be provided with accurate and
timely information regarding the relationship of their programs of study to specific
35
occupations and professions. Students will receive information about employers
from our office. Students will also receive information about requirements of
national licensure examinations for certain professions. While students are
responsible for obtaining employment forms and scheduling interviews, MDU staff
will assist students with identifying potential employers, notifications of job fairs,
creation of resumes and interview techniques.
STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES
MingDao University does not discriminate on the basis of disability in the admission
or access to, or operations of, its programs or activities. MingDao University does
not discriminate on the basis of disability in its hiring or employment practice.
This is according to The Special Education Act of Ministry of Education.
MingDao University currently provides handicap access in its classrooms and
facilities. Requests for other accommodations must be made to the Dean of
Student Affairs. On occasion, the Dean of Student Affairs may work together
with the Dean of Academic Affairs to resolve requests concerning academic
adjustments.
With the goal of promoting integration and equality among the student population,
the university provides individual assistance to students with documented
disabilities. Disclosure of disability is voluntary. Students with disabilities must request
adjustments or other accommodations before the beginning of the semester of
each semester, and provide appropriate documentation to the Office of Students
Affairs. Documentation received may be questioned if proper credentials are not
provided, the student is without treatment, or if the diagnosis is without supporting
data. The University maintains all records as confidential.
Upon review of the documentation, the Office of Student Affairs develops a letter
of acknowledgement of the disability and the appropriate accommodations that
will be provided to the student. The Office of Student Affairs contacts the student’s
coordinators to notify them of the authorized adjustments. In case the adjustments
do not work, the student must notify the Office of Student Affairs, to ensure timely
arrangements.
Students that require extra time for testing may take examinations under the
supervision of the Student Counseling Center of Students Affairs, in agreement with
the course professor. Students should be allowed two to three weeks for processing
of additional aids or educational materials. The University provides these auxiliary
aids and services on an individual basis.
These aids and services may include, but are not limited to: registration assistance,
approval of reduced course load, accommodation needs, note takers, testing
36
accommodations, classroom and other facility accommodations, and assistance
with accessibility issues.
MingDao University will take into account the dates of requests for adjustments in
the evaluation of grade appeals.
Students should keep in mind that arrangements are provided to aid in the
completion of course requirements, not to provide excuses for missing assignments
or other coursework. All students may appeal grades. For this process, please refer
to the Procedure for Grade Appeals.
Students with disabilities should notify the Accounting Department, in case they
would like additional costs (due to documented disability) to be taken into
account when calculating their overall cost of attendance at the institution.
MingDao University resource classrooms service students with disabilities. Services
have been provided for disabled students since 2005, under the supervision of
the Student Counseling Center in Students Affairs. Students with disabilities must
provide appropriate documentation to the Student Counseling Center. Resource
classrooms serve students with a variety of disabilities such as visual impairment,
hearing impairment, physical disabilities, multiple disabilities, etc.
MingDao University provides these auxiliary aids and services on an individual basis.
Services we provide: (1) Assistance in psychological development and daily life
issues for disabled students, as well as support in schoolwork, career developments
and applications for relevant social benefits. (2)Professional supports related to
studying, living and transitions for students with special needs. (3) An individualized
service plan (ISP) for each disabled student. (4) Auxiliary aids and services on
an individual basis. (5) Specific practice: guidance and counseling, academic
counseling, assistant tools.
FINANCIAL AID
A college education is one of the most important investments you can make in
your future. The office of student affairs at MDU provides information outlining
the financial aid process and assists eligible students in securing the necessary
resources to help meet their educational expenses.
The office of student affairs will utilize electronic means to communicate with
students. It is the student’s responsibility to keep MDU informed of any changes in
their current contact information and email address and to respond promptly to
messages.

ATTENDANCE POLICY
The University operates a strict attendance system for students. Missing (excused or
unexcused) over 1/3 of the class periods during a semester for a class will result in
the student being excluded from the final exam and receiving a grade of zero (0)
for the course.
STUDENT TARDINESS POLICY
A student is considered tardy if the student comes to class 5 minutes late. A student
can be tardy up to 15 minutes after class has started. After 15 minutes the student
will be considered absent. A student is considered to have left the class early if the
student leaves before the end of class time. With three tardies or having left the
class early three times, the student accumulates one full absence. If the student
leaves early and misses half of the class period, it is considered a full absence.
When a student has more than 6 tardies or has left class early 6 times, the instructor
will contact the Office of Student Affairs to request an intervention session with
the student. The goal of the intervention session is to develop and implement an
intervention program to help students learn new ways to manage time.
GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS
The university's grading system is based on a 100-point scale. For undergraduates,
the minimum passing grade is 60; for graduate students, it is 70. No credits are
earned if a student receives a failing grade in a course. Grades are translated into
an A, B, C system for English transcripts and the calculation of grade point average
(GPA) on a 4.3 scale.
At least 128 course credits are required in order to earn a bachelor's degree.
Master's degrees require the completion of twenty-four credits .
EARLY GRADUATION
Students from any department who have completed the requirements for
graduation in good standing (defined below) may apply for permission for early
graduation to the University Affairs Committee. Students may apply to graduate
one semester or one academic year early.
1. Early graduates must have completed all required courses, with a grade
average of 85 or higher and student conduct grade of 80 or higher each
semester.
2. Early graduates must be in the top 5% of their department for their year level
52

ADDING AND DROPPING COURSES
Students may add or drop any class during the set period at the beginning of each
semester, according to available space.
Students may not enroll in courses with time conflicts without the approval of the
departments concerned (special arrangements allowed for time conflicts with
practicums and lab periods). Students may be required to drop courses with time
conflicts.

Grades “A+” through “C-” are considered passing grades. Grades "W" and "I"
indicate that no grades were earned for the course. A "W" grade indicates that
the student withdrew from the course. An "I" grade indicates that the student
was passing the course, but failed to complete all the required course work. The
instructor, in his/her discretion may grant an "I" grade instead of an "F", pending
completion of the course work by the student within a specified time arranged by
the instructor and told to the student. It is the student's responsibility to follow-up
with the instructor to complete the course work. If the course work is not completed
by the arranged time, the “I” grade becomes an “F".
For students receiving transfer credit from other institutions, a grade of “T” will
appear on their transcript. Courses for which a “T” is given will not be used in
computing the student’s grade point average.
Grades for the courses for writing Master thesis or basic undergraduate courses
are presented with “pass” or “failed”, and the credits for completing basic
undergraduate courses are not counted as graduation credits.
If students have questions about their grades, they have to fill in written form to
apply for alteration to the Office of Academic Affairs within two weeks after they
have received their transcript.
A student's grade point average ("GPA") is computed by dividing the sum of all
grade points earned at the University by the total number of credits in all courses
for which grades “A” through “F” were received. Courses in which a “T” or “P”
grade was received will not be used in computing a student's GPA.
TRANSFERABILITY OF CREDITS
Students seeking to transfer credits earned at another postsecondary institution to
MingDao, or from MingDao to other institutions should note that the transferability of
credits is at the discretion of the accepting institution. It is the student’s responsibility
to confirm whether or not credits will be accepted by another institution of the
student’s choice. The policy of the University regarding the evaluation of course
content from other universities to determine its equivalency with a course offered
at MingDao University is that approximately three-fourths of the course content
must match the content of the course offered at MingDao University if it is to be
accepted for transfer. For evaluation purposes, students must provide a copy of
the course description for the course to be evaluated and the school catalog for
54
the time period during which the course was taken. Evaluations are handled on a
case by case basis.
Decisions regarding transferability of credits are not necessarily made prior to
enrollment. Only students who have been fully admitted to MingDao may submit
their transcripts and course descriptions for evaluation. Students are encouraged
to submit official transcripts as soon as possible. MingDao recognizes credits from
accredited higher education degree granting institutions, and will not transfer
credits for courses below college level. Evaluation of transferability of credits is
performed by the Department may seek the advice of Curriculum Committee in a
specific discipline to perform course evaluations.
Courses may be denied for transfer under the discretion of the Registration
Department depending on the date courses were originally taken. A grade of Cor higher is required to receive transfer credit. However, grades for classes that
were transferred from another university are shown as “T” on the transcript and
will not be used in computing the student’s grade point average. For graduate
students, no more than 9 credits will be transferred; and other documentation may
be requested, such as sample of coursework.
TRANSFER LIMITATION
Undergraduate students can apply for transfer to another department between
their first and second years or between their second and third years. Students
can transfer to another department only once, and must complete all required
courses and credits in the department to which they transfer before they graduate.
Students who wish to transfer to another department may be required to take a
transfer test and obtain the approval from the Transfer Review committee. After
student receives the approval of transfer to another department, he/she cannot
apply to cancel or change it.
CHANGE OF PROGRAM OR MAJOR
Students who contemplate a change from one program or major to another
should discuss this possibility with the advisor, original department chair, original
school dean, intended department chair, and intended school dean to determine
the effect such a change would make on the student’s satisfactory academic
progress.
The university defines satisfactory academic progress as completion of the total
program in no more than 1.5 times the number of semesters described in this
catalog for the program. All credits attempted count toward the total program
length of 1.5 times the number of semesters required for completion of the major
program.
If a student changes his/her major or program, only those credits that are common
55
to both programs will be accepted toward the new degree program.
LEAVE OF ABSENCE
Students may request a leave of absence from their academic program in cases
where personal circumstances temporarily disable them from achieving progress.
Leave of absences are granted with the reasonable expectation that the student
will return from the leave. The University may grant leave of absence to a student
who did not provide a request earlier due to unforeseen circumstances. In these
cases, the University will determine the beginning date for the approved leave of
absence, and will collect the request from the student at a later date.
All requests for a leave of absence must be made in writing, signed and dated.
The original advisor, original department chair, original school dean, intended
department chair, and intended school dean will evaluate all requests on a caseby-case basis; these must include the reason for the student’s request, and are
subject to further documentation before receiving authorization. All documentation
will remain confidential at the Office of Academic Affair. Notification of authorized
leave of absence will be issued to the student, including the scheduled date for
return. This notification will also be made available to concerning departments,
such as Office of Student Affair, Accounting Department or Office of International
Affairs.
Students must return to the university by the date for which the period for the
authorized leave of absence ends. If a student fails to enroll in the semester
following the last term in the authorized leave of absence, the student will have
failed to maintain continuous enrollment, and will be treated as a withdrawal.
After two consecutive semesters of non-enrollment, students must follow the
procedures for readmission, outlined in this catalog. A student returning from a
leave of absence is required to resume training at the same point of the academic
program that he or she began.
SATISFACTORY ACADEMIC PROGRESS
Overview
Students must make satisfactory progress in the total amount of time taken to
complete the required course sequence as outlined by semester in the MingDao
University Catalog. To maintain satisfactory progress, the student must:
● Graduate students: complete their total program in no more than 2 times the
number of semesters described in this catalog for the program
● Undergraduate students: complete their total program in no more than 1.5 times
the number of semesters described in this catalog for the program
● The University operates a strict attendance system for students. Missing (excused
or unexcused) over 1/3 of the class periods during a semester for a class will result
56
in the student being excluded from the final exam and receiving a grade of zero
(0) for the course.
Factors that may influence satisfactory progress and that may result in extended
time are:
● deviation from the catalog requirements in the number of hours taken per
semester
● deviation in the course sequence recommended
● withdrawal from classes
● repeated courses
● grades of “Incomplete”
● changing the major or the program
● grade appeal process
● earning more than one degree at a time
Definition of Satisfactory Academic Progress
Each student enrolled at Mingdao University must demonstrate that he or she
is making satisfactory academic progress toward the completion of his or her
chosen program of study. The criteria that each student must meet to qualify as
making "Satisfactory Academic Progress" are defined below. A student who is
failing to meet this criteria at any point outlined below will not meet the standard
of "Satisfactory Academic Progress”. Any of three remedies may be applied if
a student is not making Satisfactory Academic Progress. These are as follows:
academic probation, restricted class load status and/or termination from the
program of study.
The University adopts academic year and course credit system to academic affairs.
The academic duration of bachelor degree for all departments and independent
programs is for 4 years, and it can be extended for 2 more years. Disable students
can extend their academic duration for 4 more years. Undergraduate studentsof
all departments shall take no fewer than 128 credits required for graduation.
Students can extend their academic duration to no more than 3 years due to
pregnancy, childbirth, and taking care of child under the age of 3.
The study period for postgraduate students to pursue Master degree (including
degree program) in our school is one to four years. The study period for
postgraduate students to pursue Doctorate degree (including degree program) in
our school is two to seven years. Students with disabilities are able to extend their
studies up to four years.
Students due to pregnancy, childbirth, bringing up children 3 years of age or
below or applying for pursuing Doctor degree directly are allowed to apply for
57
an extension of up to three-year study period. The semester scores and the study
period of the study-termination temperately are not counted.
Qualitative Criteria for Satisfactory Academic Progress
First, student must complete your degree program within a certain timeframe,
which may vary according to your student status and program. This is referred to as
"graduate credits."
Second, student must successfully complete a required credits you attempt. This
component is referred to as your cumulative completed credits.
Conditions That May Result In Course-reduction Applicatio or Termination
The following describes the conditions under which a student course reduce
application or terminated completely from a program of study.
If a student can’t adapt himself/herself to a course learning and his/her situation
coincides with the regulations listed on Article 14, s/he can applyfor a withdrawal
from the course-taking (limited to one course) at the 12th week in every semester.
A delayed application will not be accepted. Afterhis/her withdrawal, The total
course credits of the courses s/he takes should meet the regulations of the
minimum course-credit taking in that semester.
The credit fee for the course s/he withdraws from cannot be refunded. If s/he owes
this credit fee, s/he still needs to pay it off.
If students of each department or each undergraduate degree program, oversea
Chinese students, foreign students, overseas students of Mongolian and
Tibetan Affairs returning to their studies, aboriginal students, students of expatriate
staff and the university sports merit students in line with the conditions prescribed
by the Ministry of Education have two-thirds of total number of credits failed in two
consecutive semesters, they should be dropout.
INCOMPLETE GRADE IN A COURSE
If a student receives a grade of A, B, C or D in any course, the student will have
successfully completed that course. If the student receives a grade of "I", he or she
must successfully complete the required work for that course within a specified
time arranged by the instructor and communicated to the student, but no later
than the end of the semester following the semester in which the "I" was received. It
is the student's responsibility to follow up with the instructor to complete the course
work. If the course work is not completed by the arranged time, the "I" becomes an
"F".
REPEAT COURSES
58
A student may repeat a course to improve the overall cumulative grade point
average. If a student has an "F" and repeats the course and receives a better
grade, for example, an "A", then only the "A" is counted in the calculation of the
cumulative grade point average. Credits attempted and earned for the second
attempt are counted in lieu of those earned for the initial attempt.
Though both attempts remain part of the student's permanent record, the
cumulative grade point average will reflect only the grade earned on the second
attempt.
A student who earns grade of “F” in any course included in his or her program
of study must repeat that course and complete it successfully before taking
any course with respect to which the failed course is a prerequisite and before
graduation.
A student who has successfully completed a course, but wishes to improve the
grade received in the course, may also repeat the course. If the course is repeated,
the grade earned for the last time the course is taken replaces the previous grade
when the overall GPA is calculated. All grades for all courses attempted will remain
on the student's transcript, however.
PROCEDURE FOR GRADE APPEALS
Student’s semester grades cannot be altered after they are sent to the Office
of Academic Affairs by course instructors. If students have questions about their
grades, they have to fill in written form to apply for alteration to the Office of
Academic Affairs within two weeks after they have received their transcript. The
alteration of grade must be submitted by course instructor, who needs to provide
written documentation to explain the cause of the error with the consent of the
department affairs meeting and signed by the Dean of Academic Affairs Office to
alter the record.

Professional Competence
Based on the MDU’s traditional spirit-“passion, vision, and action”, and stayed
within the educational philosophy and objectives of MDU’s -“personality, humanity,
and professionalism”, therefore, the “Sustainable business, LOHAS the life” was
propounded as educational objectives for the college. It is, therefore, that the
college offers undergraduate and graduate programs that cultivate students'
ability to perform professional performance and solve problems. With regard to
cultivating the professional performance capacity for students, various capacities
would be suggested for students of the college, especially, the “mastery of
knowledge”, “applications of professional proficiency”, “information literacy”.
Furthermore, the “acquirement of professional certificate” will lay the foundations
for obtain employment of students after graduating from the college. Furthermore,
a job calls for excellent problem-solving skills of a high order, therefore, the
college offers undergraduate and graduate programs special focused on the
ability of “positive thinking’, “creative thinking”, “planning analysis” , and “crisis
management” for students.
Moreover, the “social integration” capacity for students including the “enterprising
spirit ”, “self-management”, “communication and coordination”, and “team
collaboration” are also the main points of life literacy for students. With regard
to enhancing the humanities literacy for students, the college suggested that
theoretical study must be closely integrated with “erudition and elegance”
capacity. Therefore, it could be accomplished primarily by offering various general
education courses.
The educational objectives of the college are distinguished by four obvious aspects,
including ‘professional certificates, research, employment, entrepreneurship’.
Therefore, students will have the professional capacities with professional
certificates after graduating from the College of Management. Moreover, they will
64
also become professional managers, leaders, and entrepreneurs in the future.

The Department of Finance was established in August 2007. Our mission is to
provide students with solid ability to adapt the challenging and highly competitive
environments in the financial business world through the following schemes:
1. Integrating Theoretical and Practical Education:
We develop one basic financial core program with two selective programs, i.e.,
financial institution management and portfolio management. Every student, based
on his/her career planning, has to choose one of the selective programs, namely
one is as major and the other is as minor, to meet the requirements of his/her
degree.
2. Strengthening the International Finance Operation Ability:
Our department goes through the international financial courses, including
International Finance and Exchange, International Financial Management and
Financial Markets, to enhance students’ international financial knowledge and
operation skills.
3. Emphasizing on Financial Laws and Relevant Regulations:
Graduates are prepared to be professional, entrepreneurial, academic and
reliable leaders or managers who understand the complexities involved in business
decision-making, the interface of business and policy, and the importance of social
responsibility and business ethics.
4. Equipped with Information Infrastructure and Real Financial
Exchange Environment: our department sets up a specific financial operation
classroom and several laboratories to receive updated financial information. These
practical and situational teaching environments are exclusively available for our
students.
5. Cultivating Foreign Language Ability:
Our department puts emphasis on students’ English competencies in listening,
speaking, reading and writing via diverse courses, e.g., “Management English” and
“Professional English in Finance”.
6. Obtaining the Professional Licenses and Certificates:
Our department encourages students to take various tests to get professional
69
licenses and financial certificates. Students are provided with extra instructors/tutors
to help them prepare the tests. Students who pass the test will get rewards, such as
prizes and subsidies.

The Department of Post-Modern Agriculture was established to investigate and
develop ideas and methods that generate environmentally friendly, economically
viable, and socially desirable agricultural products for national consumption
and international trade in ensuring long-term sustainability and prosperity of an
agriculture environment. The Department is the only institution in Taiwan offering
an integrated system for advanced education in agriculture, including the
science and technology involved in organic agriculture (e.g. organic farming,
marketing, and healthy seed/seedling), structural agriculture (e.g. greenhouse
engineering and plant factory), and leisure agriculture. We have a 12-hactare
certificated organic farm, a 0.6-hectare rain shelter, and a 1.8-hectare orchard in
our Department. The breadth of training that the Department offers agricultural
engineers permits entry into many exciting new fields of endeavor. The Department
emphasizes both classroom lectures and field practice, and makes them become
excellent experts in this field so as to be employed by local or oversea agricultural
industries.
To adapt to the changing environments in both academy and industry, the basic
requirement for students will be:
1. To be familiar with agriculture concept and information.
2. To gain a broader perspective of agriculture-related issues.
3. To provide expertise for the formulation and evaluation of public policy.
4. To facilitate the process by which new research results are transferred to agrobusinesses to stimulate economic development.
5. To participate in training activities in agriculture.
6. To participate in cross-disciplinary research programs campus-wide and in
industry, using campus research strengths and facilities to solve practical
problems of national importance.
We offer both a bachelors, -and masters program in science at our department.
For students who are interested in related fields, the MDU Department of PostModern Agriculture is the best choice.

MingDao University. The Center, as reorganized in 2011, consists of a director, a
secretary, an assistant, as well as a committee that include a group of faculty from
different academic fields with the director as the committee chairman. The director
is in charge of general curriculum planning and design. Every semester, the Center

material compilation, teaching methodology evaluation, and teaching resource
acquirement.
Principle and objective
In addition to providing knowledge and work skills, college education should be
able to cultivate student’s humanity quality and to help students to develop their
independent thinking and knowledge integration capability. In curriculum design,
the Center follows the guidelines of reality, vividness, and enrichment with the
goal to enhance students’ vision, courage, capacity, and knowledge. Via solid,
creative, practical, and comprehensive curriculum planning and implementation,
the Center aims to cultivate a generation of, learned, decisive, intelligent, and

students to attain infinite possibilities in their lifetime.
Curriculum and goal
The general education courses cover seven categories, namely, culture,
technology, computer application, management skills, English competence,
physical education, and military training. There are also lectures and practical
trainings for social service and personality cultivation. Besides the required
curriculum in their major fields of studies, students will need to take 32 general
education credits in addition to 6 credits of common courses, which include
physical education and military training, before they may graduate. The 32 credits
cover language, core compulsory courses, general education electives, MDU
seminars, as well as community service and personality development courses. The
total credits required for graduation are 128 for an average department.
The development goals of the Center are listed below:
• Establish a skill database to collect professional talents within the University to
support and coordinate the teaching and learning activities.
• Collaborate with other universities to establish a lecturer database and to invite
talents to give speeches to enhance the University’s academic standard.
• Plan and host large-scale seminars and culture development events and compile
national resources in general education to enhance the University’s education
standard.
• Acquire teaching and learning multimedia materials to reinforce the instructions
in the fields of art, nature, culture, languages, social study, life science, and
health education
