School of Gerontology and Long-Term Care / 高齡健康暨長期照護學系

With the clarification of relevant policies for the elderly and the increasingly vigorous development of the elderly industry, the department has been renamed the “Department of Health Management for the Elderly” since the 2012 academic year. With the name change, the positioning has been adjusted to “serve the healthy elderly, emphasizing health promotion and the development of the elderly industry.” In the 2010 academic year, the master’s class of the Department of Health Management for the Elderly was created, actively cooperating with aging-related institutions and industries, strengthening the employment competitiveness of students, and guiding students to enter relevant institutions and industries for employment. From the 111 academic year, it was renamed “Aging Health and Long-term “Department of Nursing” to highlight the professional attributes and characteristics of long-term care that integrates the health promotion of the elderly and includes a wider range of disabilities and dementia. It is expected to train students to become “cross-field, creative, and industry-oriented professional”.
