  Based on the latest survey by 1111 Job Bank on the " Most Favored and Popular Universities Category by Taiwan Corporates and Companies in 2024," Asia University is ranked 9th among "General Private Universities." After being listed in the top 10 for the first time last year, Asia University, established for 23 years, has once again improved its ranking this year, earning recognition as the "youngest and most progressive university in Taiwan."

  Furthermore, the survey categorizes universities by professional clusters, where Asia University ranks 5th nationwide in the "Best Universities in Social and Psychological Sciences," described as "rising swiftly upon its first appearance on the list." The reason behind this recognition is attributed to Asia University's Psychology Department, established in 2003, being the youngest among the listed universities. Despite its relatively short history, the department's graduates are highly regarded in the workplace. It is one of the few departments approved by the Ministry of Examination to simultaneously cultivate clinical psychologists and counseling psychologists. It also offers opportunities for students to study, intern, and apprentice at China Medical University and Asia University affiliated hospitals, integrating scientific theory with professional practice.

  Additionally, Asia University ranks 7th nationwide in the "Information Sciences" category, acknowledged for its commitment to cultivating graduates' immediate employability and specialization. Asia University's substantial investment in teaching resources in recent years has been recognized, with graduates receiving favorable attention from enterprises. Asia University has consistently ranked among the "World's Best Universities" by the Times Higher Education (THE) for 10 years. In the latest "2024 World University Subject Rankings," Asia University excels in three major fields: "Computer Science," "Business and Economics," and "Social Sciences," ranking 1st among private universities in Taiwan. It also secures the 2nd position in two categories, "Clinical and Health" and "Life Sciences," among private universities nationwide, receiving acclaim from various sectors of society.

  President Jeffrey J.P. Tsai of Asia University stated that over the 23 years since its establishment, Asia University has seen a steady increase in alumni serving in various sectors of society, demonstrating outstanding performance. The most valued asset by enterprises is talent, and Asia University emphasizes students' learning, particularly in keeping up with advancements in professionalism such as intelligent AI, sustainable SDGs, etc., enabling them to adapt to any industry effortlessly. The school's mission is to instill in students the correct values and attitudes. Asia University promotes interdisciplinary autonomous learning, integrating innovative education and university social responsibility as its main focus. Programs designed by students themselves aim to strengthen their abilities. Furthermore, free classes for national examinations, English proficiency tests, and certifications are offered annually, with pass rates for national examination certifications in related fields often surpassing the national average. Asia University adopts a comprehensive approach to ensure that students excel in various fields.

  Dr. Ruey-Ming Liao, Director of the Psychology Department at Asia University, pointed out that the national examination for psychologists has high entry barriers, requiring candidates to hold a master's degree in psychology and fulfill a one-year full-time internship at a professional institution. Graduates from Asia University's Psychology Department have performed exceptionally well, with 6 passing the clinical psychologist exam and 8 passing the counseling psychologist exam in the 112th year, totaling 14 passing the psychologist national examination. Among them, this year's graduate, Alumni Wan-Ching Lu, achieved the fastest qualification as a psychologist in just 3 years and is currently serving as a clinical psychologist at Taichung Veterans General Hospital.
