In order to provide students with more options to choose courses, our department has designed a new curriculum from 2010. Changes include decreasing the credits of required courses, and increasing the credits of elective courses. The chart below is a suggested course program for students who have interests in particular fields. This chart is only for reference, and does not have actual sanction.

  1. Explanation and common questions related to the required course “Chinese” and general education credits, please click here. There is no restriction on which foreign language to take to fulfill the “English and Foreign Language” requirement, but the courses taken must be in the same language. For instance, if Japanese 1 is taken, then Japanese 2 must be taken as well. Taking courses in different languages, such as Japanese 1 and German 2, will not fulfill this requirement.
  2. Students in the Department of Economics are required to take the course “Principle of Micro/Macroeconomics (with recitation)” offered by the department. It cannot be replaced by other economics-related courses (e.g. Economics 1 and Economics 2). Taking additional economic courses with similar names or contents will be considered redundant.
  3. Except for Accounting (a), Outline of Civil Code (B), General Principles on Commercial Law and Corporation, and specific courses (please refer to the required courses of each department), only courses offered by the Department of Economics (i.e. those with ECON course codes) can be counted as Required Elective Courses of the Department. Other courses are considered General Elective Course credits. Excess credits of Required Elective Courses of the Department will be counted as General Elective Course credits. Please refer to the course inquiry of each department for other related regulations.
  4. For calculus courses, it is necessary to complete the full series (Calculus A and B, or Calculus 1-4). Do not take Calculus A and B interchangeably. Do not repeat Calculus A and B. If both Calculus A and B have been completed, only Calculus A will be counted (6 credits will be used to replace Calculus B, and 2 credits will be counted as General Elective Course credits). If all Calculus 1-4 courses have been completed, Calculus 1-3 will be counted as required credits and Calculus 4 will be counted as General Elective Course credits.
