Founded in 1975, it is renowned for its outstanding teaching and research in medicine, biomedicine, life sciences, and related fields, enjoying a long-standing prestigious reputation in Taiwan and the international academic community, and has cultivated countless medical and research elites. Yang Ming University possesses a strong academic foundation and leading research capabilities in medicine, dentistry, nursing, biomedical engineering, and life sciences. The university boasts a first-class faculty and advanced experimental facilities, dedicated to promoting the translation between basic medical research and clinical applications, and has achieved numerous breakthroughs in neuroscience, genomics, infectious diseases, and cancer research. Its rigorous academic atmosphere and pursuit of academic excellence make it an ideal destination for students aspiring to a career in medicine and life sciences. Located in Taipei City, the campus offers a beautiful environment and convenient transportation, providing students with abundant learning and living resources. In 2021, National Yang-Ming University and National Chiao Tung University merged to form National Yang-Ming Chiao Tung University (NYCU). This merger aimed to integrate the strengths of both universities in medicine, life sciences, electronic information, and engineering, creating a more internationally competitive comprehensive university. Although National Yang-Ming University no longer exists as an independent entity, its tradition and spirit of excellence in medicine and life sciences have been perfectly integrated into NYCU, continuing to contribute to human health and technological progress.
