National Ilan University Higher Education SPROUT Project – 2022 Results Presentation
I. To Realize Teaching Innovation and Elevate Teaching Quality

Full-time teaching teachers would be exempted from 2 hours of teaching per case for leading the Teaching Practice Research Program of the Ministry of Education. In 2022, there were 21 applications for the Teaching Practice Research Program, among which, 14 were approved, with an average passing rate of 66.67%.
II. To Develop School Characteristics
(1)In 2022, the average PR value of each NIU teacher in the number of authorized patents and new varieties, the amount of derivative use of intellectual property rights, the number of papers published in professional journals, and the number of seminar papers was more than 75. NIU undertook the industry-university cooperation programs of more than NT$ 230 million funded by various units.
(2)The World’s Top 2% Scientists 2020 list was released by Professor John P. A. Ioannidis team of Stanford University and Elsevier Mendeley Data. In 2022, a total of 13 professors from NIU were ranked among the world’s top 2% scientists.
III. To Raise Accessibility of Higher Education

In addition, NIU makes the student recruitment specialized, improve faculty structure and conduct the research on school affairs. The number of students who are economically or culturally disadvantaged has been increased to 23.45% for the 2022 academic year.
(2)Promote the NIU Grant_Get Ready for Flight Program (annual subsidy of approximately NT$40,000 for each student from low-income families) and solicit external resources to provide students with the support they need so that they can focus on study, pursue their dreams boldly as well as change their future life.
IV. To Fulfill Social Responsibility
With its University Social Responsibility Program, NIU has set up 3 healthy farming bases, developed food and farming activities as well as sustainable farming experience activities. Credited to the smart and technology-based APP designed, students are led to access to the local communities/recreational agricultural area to partner with young farmers. NIU also assisted and counseled the economic industries of the two original townships (Datong and Nanao), as well as promoted the crops with native characteristics by combining the organic and friendly planting methods with the original township industries.
In 2022 NIU applied for 7 USR Hub programs, focusing on the aged health industry, green circular economy, forest and wood application, preservation of World War II literature and history, horticultural therapy, etc. After graduation, some students have participated in USR related courses, connected with the locals and actually applied the field experience to the workplace, which even attracted students to stay and work for the cooperative fields retaining excellent talents in the local areas and vitalize the local creation.
