About

The excellence of universities is an important key to enhance a nation's competitiveness. Therefore, President Chiang Kao of the National Cheng Kung University (NCKU), Taiwan, together with the Presidents of prestigious universities of Southeast Asian countries initiated the "Presidents' Forum of Southeast Asia and Taiwan Universities" (abbreviated as SATU Presidents' Forum) in the year 2003. This forum provides a venue for academics to share their valuable experiences to improve higher education and international cooperation in the region. The International Secretariat of the SATU Presidents' Forum, which includes the two subsections named Academic Exchange Subcommittee and Industry Academia Collaboration Subcommitte, has been established at NCKU to coordinate and to promote the related activities.
