1. Required courses:
● Learning in University: TKU requires the freshman to participate in the “Learning in University courses” to build essential comprehension of “university” and have the fundamental capabilities as an undergraduate. One of the courses titled “‘Creating a great Tamsui”-the USR project sharing” adapted the concept of a scavenger hunt which leads participants to discover the beauty and historical significance of Tamsui. 大學學習覓情記

2. Micro-program of SDGs: TKU has set up a micro-program of SDGs open to students of all grades to study.

3. Courses opened by each college: The school encourages all colleges to offer diverse and different-oriented courses related to sustainable education according to their professional fields. The school requires teachers to state the sustainable development goals related to the teaching plan when submitting a teaching plan, thereby encouraging teachers to incorporate SDG practice and experience into curriculum design to facilitate the promotion of education related to sustainable development goals.
