President Shen emphasized that NCKU continues to thrive both in Taiwan and on the global stage. Higher education plays a vital role in national development, and NCKU remains committed to advancing excellence. As the university boasts a history of 93 years, President Shen highlighted three key characteristics of NCKU students: teamwork, empathy, and resilience in the face of challenges. These qualities align with the expectations set by NCKU’s first president, who envisioned students as possessing "clear minds, broad perspectives, and agile hands and feet." These attributes continue to shape the university’s governance and educational philosophy.
