DAE has collaborated with a number of Taiwanese and international organizations with the aim of:

*creating and delivering language learning program

Our department is actively involved in nation-wide academic events throughout the year. DAE hosted and organized the International Conference and Workshop on TEFL & Applied Linguistics.

Scholarly exchange with internationally-known professionals in the fields of TESOL and Applied Linguistics has strengthened both teaching and research within the department.

The majority of courses offered in the Department of Applied English are taught in English with an aim to enhance English specific knowledge and communicative competence of our students; thereby, our department is given the approval to recruit international students soon after the International College at the University.

We recruit international students including exchange student, provide English-taught degrees programs, hold various activities of international academic exchanges, international guest visits, and educational exhibitions to establish the channels of effective exchange and recruitment.

Our educational principle insists on theory-based, application-oriented education, and general education to make sure all our graduates benefit from theory-based, application-oriented education.

Our department comprises two academic modules: English Business & Tourism Module; English Teaching & Cultural Communication Module. Courses are supported by teachers who are specialized in TESOL, translation/interpretation, business, and tourism.
