It has been renamed since then Taiwan Public Industrial School of Taipei (1919), National Taipei Institute of Technology (1981), and National Taipei University of Technology (1997). Since 1912, over 90,000 students have graduated from the University. At home and abroad, they have demonstrated outstanding achievements in professional fields as well as academic arenas. They are not only the assets of the University but also of the nation because of the crucial contributions they have made to technological and economic development of Taiwan.
