I. Goal of the Conference
To improve the competitiveness of talents and industries, the Executive Yuan (Taiwan) issued the “Blueprint for Developing Taiwan into a Bilingual Nation by 2030” in December 2018 to facilitate the improvement of students’ English proficiency. Base on this policy, the Ministry of Education launched the Program on Bilingual Education for Students in College to build a bilingual teaching and learning environment for universities and colleges, and in turns improve the English proficiency of students in higher education and the international competitiveness of universities in Taiwan.
