Introduction: <<通識教育中心>>
本中心原稱共同學科,經過將近十年的發展,本科之教學範圍逐漸擴大為涵蓋大學通識教育之諸多面向。民國七十八年間,在本校組織規程草案中決議將「共同學科」名稱改為「通識教育中心」(Center for General Education),使〝共同學科〞能包容於更周延的發展方向之中。此一改制為全國創舉,通識教育中心在本校之定位為一實際負責推動、規劃和執行通識教育的一個獨立教學研究單位。
通識教育中心冀望在現有的架構與基礎上,就教學及研究方面發展出能融合人文與科技之獨特文化。發揚清華之學術創新精神,並迎向全球化之發展優勢與競爭。
The Center for General Education was originally named Common Courses. After nearly a decade in development, our teaching scope has gradually broadened to comprehend all the prospects for college General Education. During 1989, the Department of Common Courses was renamed “Center for General Education” in the Organization Constitution Draft of our school, and this new name has enabled “Common Courses” to be included in a more comprehensive development direction.
This system reform was a pioneering work of our country.
