Master in Department of Applied Science

Tuition fees are 101,060 TWD per year.

The master's degree program in the Department of Applied Science at National Taitung University covers graduate study in applied science, a broad discipline that connects foundational scientific principles in areas such as physics, chemistry, and materials science with practical, real-world applications. At the graduate level, students typically pursue advanced coursework alongside a research project or thesis, working in a laboratory setting to investigate specific scientific questions and develop applied solutions to technical problems. Applied science programs often draw on multiple scientific disciplines, allowing students to specialize in areas such as materials science, physical chemistry, environmental science, or instrumentation, depending on the specific division or research focus within the department. Coursework commonly emphasizes experimental methods, data analysis, and the practical application of scientific principles to problems in industry, environment, or technology. Graduates of applied science master's programs pursue careers as research scientists, laboratory analysts, quality control specialists, and technical consultants across industries such as manufacturing, materials development, environmental monitoring, and technology. Some graduates continue toward doctoral study in a specialized scientific field, while others move into applied research roles within government agencies or private companies. National Taitung University, located in Eastern Taiwan, offers this program in English, giving international students the opportunity to pursue applied science research within a region of Taiwan known for its natural environment, which offers relevant context for research connected to environmental and materials science.
