Formerly known as the “Student Disciplinary Office”, the “Office of Student Affairs (OSA)” was renamed in 1994 after the University Act was promulgated. The mission of OSA is to facilitate students’ life, accommodation, extracurricular activities and physical and mental well-being.
Following the passage of amendments to university organization charter in the 96th university affairs meeting on October 25th, 2006, the following organizations were set up under OSA according to Clause 2, Article 9, for their respective aspects of student affairs: Division of Student Assistance, Division of Student Housing Affairs, Division of Extracurricular Activities, Division of Student Affairs at Gongguan Campus, Division of Student Affairs at Linkou Campus, Health Center, Student Counseling Center, and Military Instructor Office.
In January 2011, the Preparatory Office of the Holistic Education Center was founded to promote the service-learning education curriculum and devise holistic education programs. In August 2014, Student Adviser Office was set up to strengthen guidance support by advisers and ensure the implementation of tertiary prevention—developmental guidance, intervention counseling, and remedial counseling.
In 2015, the Military Instructor Office merged with the Student Adviser Office. Meanwhile, the Holistic Education Center was officially incorporated into the OSA.
On August 1, 2016, the Division of Student Housing Affairs transferred to the Office of General Affairs and was renamed as “Student Housing Center.”
