In the fast changing and highly competitive international economy,
professionals with global exposure are essential for the survival
of the Taiwan businesses. Hence helping develop talented people
for the society is one of TSMC’s key responsibilities
as a corporate citizen.
TSMC designs various programs to focus on different aspects
of education at different age levels. At the college level,
we target global perspectives so that they can compete in global
economy. Recognizing the need for visionary training programs,
TSMC is supporting ”TSMC Chair Professorship and “Morris
Chang Chair Professorship”, which invites internationally
renowned professors to lecture in Taiwan. For secondary schools,
our focus is to develop students’ potential in both science
and humanity. Since 2004 Foundation has been sponsoring ‘’Wu
Chien-Shiung Science Camp” and “Wu Ta-You Science
Camp” providing gifted youths the opportunity to engage
in dialogue with world-class scientists as well as work closely
with other promising young scholars. The Foundation aims to
inspire and nurture future scientists through intensive training
at the science camps. Meanwhile, the Foundation also held “TSMC
Youth Literature Awards” and “TSMC Youth Calligraphy
Awards” to enrich the inner humanity. At primary schools,
our focus is on the aesthetic education, with the goal to expose
children to arts as early as possible and bridge the gap between
rural and urban areas. In 2001 TSMC Education and Culture Foundation
launched "TSMC Esthetic Education Tour". Every year
the project organizes tours for 10,000 children from the rural
areas throughout Taiwan to visit the National Palace Museums
and other fine arts institutes. In total, more than 50,000 children
have been invited to take the tour.
TSMC is also committed to offering support for top-notch research
and facilitating development of highly educated people. In 2005
TSMC donated NT150 million dollars to National Tsing-Hua University
to establish the School of Technology Management, TSMC Hall,
to promote the integration of technology and management training.
At the end of 2005, TSMC contributed NT120 million Dollars to
National Taiwan University to build a new research center for
the chemistry department. The research center will be dedicated
to both cutting-edge chemistry and material science research
education and development of future leaders.
