TKU is committed to creating an environmentally friendly and ecological campus, providing community residents with sports and recreational areas, and a high-quality learning environment for outdoor teaching in local primary and secondary schools; the Maritime Museum, Carrie Chang Art's Center, the Library, and the beautified green campus that are open to the public free of charge to provide full play to the effect of the local welfare. Actively through the designation of the environmental education field, the campus will be constructed as an environmental education base for visiting and learning by primary and secondary schools in the North Coast area. In this action, teaching faculties and students assisted the sustainable campus planning and setting up in the Tamsui area, assisted in obtaining funding, and moved towards the construction of a sustainable environmental network in Tamsui.
There are 35 monuments and historical buildings in the Tamsui area. The teaching faculties and students of TKU actively participate in the process of designating these cultural assets and protecting the area. TKU is also closely related to two historic sites in Tamsui: one is a systematic historic site on the Huwei Waterway, where the pumping chamber is located next to the Kanan slope; the second is the historic site You-Ren Yu Cemetery, which links the calligraphy inscriptions left by Mr. You-Ren Yu on the TKU campus. In addition, the "Maritime Museum" of the university is the core museum of the TKU Environmental Education Base. It is also a member of the family of the Tamsui Museum of New Taipei City, and one of the attractions visited by cultural buses at the potential point of the Tamsui World Heritage Site.
In terms of the maintenance of intangible assets, the university produced its first local study of "Tamsui Studies", a Tamsui documentary, the local publication, and the construction of the topic website, etc., recording the rich cultural experience of daily Tamsui. Among them, the Tamsui Wiki has accumulated a significant amount of information about Tamsui for a long time, and it has become a gathering place for Tamsui's local information.
