Campus 　

As a comprehensive university, AU also centers on creating an aesthetic campus and cultural atmosphere. Filled with beautiful buildings inspired by Greek and Roman architecture, AU offers an amazing space for teachers and students to study and conduct research. Furthermore, the world-renowned architect, Tadao Ando, was invited to design the Asia Museum of Modern Art in 2007, which was officially opened in 2013. As an iconic landmark in central Taiwan, the museum turns to be a venue for world-class exhibitions and a muse for local and international artists and architects. 

Moving forward with the perception of "Health, Caring, Innovation, and Excellence" as the motto for school operation, we devote ourselves to strengthening humanities, care, and social services by building an affiliated hospital, which we expect to be a” health keeper” for the local society and a gateway to knowledge for students. We believe that with various facilities, colleges, and services, international students will be well supported as they are engaged in study at Asia University. We welcome all international students to Asia University and together we can explore the world with passion and creativity.
