After the establishment of the institute, we will actively establish practical alliances with industry and academia. Since our school is geographically close to the Kinmen Winery and has local experimental institutes such as the Kinmen Water Experimental Laboratory, the Agricultural Experimental Laboratory, and the Animal and Plant Disease Control Institute, we can form a strategic alliance with them for industry-university cooperation, education, teaching, and academic close cooperation. . In recent years, the scope has been expanded to include inviting professors from various research institutes such as National Taiwan University, Taiwan Ocean University, National Chung Hsing University, Kaohsiung University of Marine Science and Technology, Kaohsiung University of Applied Science and other academic institutions, as well as industry researchers such as Uni-President Enterprise Corporation, Zhongxun Industrial Co., Ltd. Professional R&D and senior management executives come to the school to impart first-hand information and practical experience in their professional fields. They also hold special lectures from time to time to introduce the latest news on health foods.
