Our ratio of teacher training and non-teacher training students is 5:5, which provides students with multiple possibilities and opportunities.

Our main goal is not only to nurture cross-disciplinary talents by providing a variety of courses, but also to enhance their abilities and hence to build innovative teacher education.
