5. Educational Campus Visits and Female Admissions Outreach

5. To enhance female students' understanding of the various academic disciplines at our university, we collaborated with National Changhua Girls' Senior High School, the local top choice, to organize an educational campus visit. On March 27, 2025, Principal Xiang-Yun Chen led approximately 420 first-year students to visit six of our university's colleges: Education, Liberal Arts, Science, Engineering, Management, and Social Sciences and Physical Education. Faculty members from each college introduced the unique features of their respective departments and further arranged hands-on experiences, practical workshops, or lectures to provide guidance. The goal was to support female students in their future academic pursuits or career exploration, contributing to relevant admission initiatives. See Figure 4 and 5 for reference.
