Our university assesses the success of interdisciplinary research through multiple indicators to ensure that collaboration across different disciplines generates significant impact, enhances academic value, and promotes industrial application. The evaluation framework consists of three key aspects: (1) Education and Talent Cultivation, (2) Research and Development Outcomes, and (3) Social Impact and Sustainable Development.
Evaluation of Interdisciplinary Research Success
The university employs multiple indicators to assess the success of interdisciplinary research, ensuring that collaboration between different disciplines generates substantial impact and enhances the value of both academic and industrial applications. The primary measurement methods include:
1. Education and Talent Cultivation
● Interdisciplinary Degree Programs
The university currently has 34 departments offering 48 types of interdisciplinary second-major programs. There is also a university-level Arete Honors Program that is not restricted to any specific department, as well as several cross-college and cross-department degree programs, covering fields such as medicine, artificial intelligence, robotics, and optoelectronics. These programs provide students with diverse interdisciplinary learning opportunities and connect with industry and the international academic community. In addition, our university regularly evaluates the number of courses offered in each interdisciplinary program and student enrollment, and tracks the employment rates and industry collaboration opportunities of program graduates to ensure that program development aligns with academic trends and industry needs. Detailed information on each of our interdisciplinary degree programs is shown in the table below:
● General and Liberal Arts Education
The Liberal Arts program embraces an interdisciplinary and learning-by-doing approach, fostering a diverse and integrated learning environment. It encourages interdisciplinary learning and active engagement between students and their surroundings. Through case analysis, team projects, and social practice, students gain opportunities to apply their knowledge in real-world situations, deepen their academic skills, and develop a strong sense of social responsibility and practical abilities. Liberal Arts education integrates four major educational systems to cultivate well-rounded students: Professional Education, Research Education, General Education, Community Education. These four components create a comprehensive and mutually reinforcing learning model, equipping students with the necessary skills and knowledge to succeed in an ever-evolving academic and professional landscape.
● Cross-Domain Platforms and Learning Spaces
Our university’s ICT Creative Technology initiative focuses on innovative, forward-thinking research and development, emphasizing creativity, innovation, and interdisciplinary learning. This initiative enables all students to actively engage in cross-domain learning, exploring emerging technologies and contemporary topics. To foster collaboration, faculty members from various disciplines and colleges come together to create teacher communities, establish an interactive teaching platform, and develop ICT workshops. These initiatives encourage diverse teaching collaborations and provide students with opportunities for interdisciplinary learning. Through the design of practical courses, the program promotes interdisciplinary knowledge sharing, integration of diverse expertise, and hands-on learning experiences. Beyond the regular semester schedule, the university also utilizes flexible learning periods, such as weekends, holidays, and evenings, to offer short-term professional advanced courses to deepen expertise in specialized fields and general short-term introductory courses, allowing students from other disciplines to gain exposure to cross-domain learning opportunities.
2. Research and Development Results
● Publication of High-Impact International Journal Papers
The university’s Center for Institutional Research and Data Analytics has developed the “Institutional Research Data Visualization Dashboards” (as shown below) to monitor and assess interdisciplinary research outputs. This platform calculates the number of interdisciplinary collaborative papers published in SSCI, SCIE, TSSCI, A&HCI, and THCI international journals and tracks the Field-Weighted Citation Impact (FWCI) indicator to evaluate the influence and academic impact of the university’s cross-disciplinary research. Additionally, the university has established the “R&D Advantage Analysis Platform (NYCU Academic Hub)”, which integrates multiple research-related databases to provide a comprehensive view of the university’s research performance. This platform connects paper databases, R&D indicator information systems, industry-university collaboration project systems, patent information systems, and personnel management systems. By linking these systems, the platform enables efficient tracking of research trends across various disciplines, facilitates data-driven decision-making, and enhances interdisciplinary collaboration.
NYCU Institutional Research Data Visualization Dashboards
● Interdisciplinary Research Projects
The university’s Office of Research and Development and Office of Industry-Academia Cocreation track and evaluate the number of interdisciplinary research projects supported by the National Science Council, the Ministry of Education, industry, and other organizations. These offices also monitor total funding received, the number of collaborative research initiatives, and partnerships with top international universities, research institutions, and companies. In 2024, over 2,500 interdisciplinary research projects involving government, industry, academia, and non-profit organizations. Total investment exceeding NT$5.0 billion, fostering interdisciplinary academic, research, and technological exchanges. More than 50 public institutions and 200 academic institutions contributed to approximately 1,500 collaborative research projects. Over 400 industry partners, leading to more than 500 industry-academia collaboration projects. Around 200 projects in partnership with 30+ non-profit organizations. These interdisciplinary collaborations strengthen knowledge-sharing, innovation, and technological advancement, reinforcing the university’s role as a hub for academic and industry-driven research. Below is a detailed breakdown of the university’s interdisciplinary research projects:
