TKU actively participates in international collaboration on gathering or measuring data for the SDGs:

1. The Synchrotron Radiation Research Team from the Department of Physics signed a contract with the National Synchrotron Radiation Research Center to establish an advanced research laboratory for the development of nanomaterials and energy technology. The team published four international-collaborated papers in 2020, 2 in 2021, and 6 in 2022.

2. The Department of Chemistry is collaborating with Tay Nguyen University (TNU) in Vietnam to conduct a research on the benefits and risks associated with inhibitor therapy in Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease.

3. The Department of Chemistry has been collaborating with TNU and HCMUT (Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology) to publish research papers on ending poverty, health care, and water resources.

4. Faculty members from the Department of Water Resources and Environmental Engineering and International scholars jointly published 8 journal papers related to SDG6 - Clean Water and Sanitation.

5. In 2022, the Wind Engineering Research Center collaborated with the Taiwan Soka Association in response to SDGs' emphasis on the issue of "climate change." Together, they integrated the principles of SDGs and the "Earth Charter Initiative" to further promote the concept of SDGs on campus. They specially planned the "Seeds of Hope and Action Exhibition" developed by SGI and the Earth Charter Initiative. Through more diverse and interactive content, they aimed to initiate change starting with "inner transformation," ultimately transforming the environment and society, and opening the path towards a sustainable and better future for the next generation. This exhibition, promoted by the Soka Gakkai International, has been showcased worldwide and was exhibited at various domestic universities in 2023.

6. The teachers and students from the Department of Information and Library Science set up a public digital collaboratively-editing online website, Tamsui Wiki, to introduce and record the culture and humanity in Tamsui. Since 2021, the team has extended the field of practice to Malaysia and set up the Malaysian Chinese Wiki. From September 2013 to December 2021, the cumulative total number of page views has reached more than 2.83 million times.
