The Department of Foreign Language and Literature at National Tsing Hua University has an equal focus on foreign literature and language science to cultivate students with both spirit of humanity and logical thinking. With a similar number of faculty members in the field of Western Literature and Linguistics, undergraduate students could freely choose either major or enjoy a balanced development of both types of knowledge. Graduate students would also benefit from our multidisciplinary courses to develop their own research topics. Ultimately, we aim to move toward a new direction to further expand our students' career choices.

Undergraduate students in the department must complete 128 credits, including 30 credits from university common required courses. Required courses and credits of the department can be divided into three areas: language skills, literature, and linguistics/ applied linguistics. Starting in their sophomore year, students should choose (1) core courses (literature and/or linguistics/applied linguistics) and complete 21 required credits before graduation; and (2) a second foreign language (Japanese, German, French, or Spanish) and complete at least 12 credits of study in that language. In addition to fulfilling the department requirements for graduation, students can do cross-disciplinary studies by taking a certain number of elective courses from other departments such as Chinese and Literature Department, Economics Department, and independent programs such as Teacher Education Program, Program of Information and Communication Media. Students can also take some elective courses from other universities within the University System of Taiwan, which include National Yang-Ming Chiao-Tung University, National Central University and National Cheng-Chi University.
