  • Established in 1985, the Institute of Industrial Economics was the first academic institution in Taiwan to offer graduate studies in this field. The institute currently offers graduate programs at both Masters and doctoral levels, with these programs being directed toward preparing students for careers in academia, government and the private sector. The emphasis of the main program is placed upon three core areas of economics: theory, industrial economics and applied economics, enabling students to develop a level of expertise in macro- and microeconomic theory, industrial organization, econometrics, game theory, anti-trust theory, competition and regulations, research and development, international economics, labor economics and environmental and resource economics.

 

  • The institute¡¦s legal section was established in 1999 and accepts students with background training in economics. The section offers courses in the interdisciplinary field of law and economics, including corporate law, security regulations, antitrust law, intellectual property law, telecommunications law and policy, and administrative law and the regulatory process. These courses are designed to help students to develop expertise in bringing together their knowledge of economics and the relevant legal theories. The institute is now actively engaged in building up an impressive collection of publications and academic periodicals in the field of legal studies, to complement the existing computing and networking facilities, so as to provide the best possible support for the teaching and research needs of the staff and students.
