The central government is making every effort to develop the Greater Southern New Silicon Valley in Tainan Quy Nhon Salon Smart Green Energy Science City. The city government is actively promoting the construction of the new AI ​​Top 10. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd. will also be stationed in the national guardian mountain. National Yang-Ming Chiao Tung University signed a cooperation agreement with Evergreen University to unlock the "4+1 dual bachelor's degree", allowing non-science and engineering students to enter the semiconductor industry and assist the country in cultivating professional talents.

Global AI is progressing rapidly and there is an urgent need for talents in related industries, especially the explosion of the semiconductor industry in the "Great Southern S Corridor". Yangming Jiaotong University and Evergreen University are the two universities closest to Sharon Green Energy Science City. Facing the challenge of a declining birth rate, they are working together to create a new flexible cross-domain channel.

Yang-Ming Jiaotong University and Evergreen University officially signed an academic exchange and cooperation agreement, announcing the launch of cross-school cooperation. The "4+1 dual bachelor's" cross-disciplinary training model has attracted the most attention. For the first time, it has opened up a "new channel for further education and employment" directly to the semiconductor and AI industries for students with non-science and engineering backgrounds.

The cooperation plan focuses on "4+1 original majors + technological expertise". Evergreen University students can flexibly plan a second major while still in school, connecting to the "Post-Bachelor's Electronics and Photonics Bachelor's Degree Program" of Yang-Ming Jiaotong University Southern Campus. After graduation, they can directly obtain dual bachelor's degrees from Evergreen University and National Yang-Ming Jiaotong University. In other words, non-science and engineering students can directly unlock semiconductor and optoelectronics expertise without re-taking the college entrance examination or repeating four years of studies.

Chairman Chen Xinliang attended the signing ceremony. He said that the dual-bachelor cooperation project with Yangtze River University will combine the resources of international sister schools to enhance the international competitiveness of students and contribute to the cultivation of semiconductor talents around the world.

Principal Sun Huimin pointed out that in the face of the wave of declining birthrate and industrial transformation, a single subject can no longer meet the needs of the future workplace, allowing non-science and engineering students on campus to enter the semiconductor field and become dual-core talents while retaining the advantages of their original majors. Weng Yaolin, the R&D director of Changchun University, emphasized that by combining the strategic geographical location of Sharon Science Park, the in-depth connection of the forward-looking semiconductor academic resources of Yangtze University of Science and Technology, and the abundant cross-domain talent pool of Changchun University, we will continue to inject cross-domain capabilities into the southern semiconductor corridor.
