To enhance the educational opportunities and quality of education for the limited number of students with special needs is the commitment of the Department of Special Education. The master’s program was established in 1986 with the approval of the Ministry of Education, and the bachelor’s program was established in 1990. The two programs were merged into the Department under the founded Chairperson, Professor Wu-Tien Wu, who had served as the chair of the master’s program and the director of the Special Education Center. The doctoral program was later established in 1992. The Department of Special Education has been cultivating a multitude of teachers and professionals in the field of special education for over 30 years.

The majority of our graduates are teachers or professionals in special education or related services for special needs. In addition, the Department holds rich resources including books, academic journals, teaching materials, instructional aids, laboratory facilities, and tests. The excellent performance of alumni to promote high-quality services for special needs is our privilege
