University of Kang Ning

[EduCativ]

The University of Kang Ning (UKN), with an educational focus on theory and practice, aims to nurture professionals in the health and service industries. The school, known initially as Leader College of Management, was established in 2000 in response to the Tainan Industrial Science Park's founding. The school's founding is meant to meet the growing knowledge economy's needs and was upgraded to a university in 2008.
To fulfill the needs of our country's industrial development, the school cultivates professionals through a well-designed curriculum in which theory and professional skills are equally emphasized. In addition to the cultivation of academic competence, with devotion, integrity, humanity, and love as our educational ideals, we educate our students to be practical and develop good character, world vision, and humanistic literacy. As such, students can serve society, improve people's living quality, and facilitate further development of our country. On August 1st, the school merged with Kang Ning Junior College of Medical Care and Management (KNJC). This was the first successful case of a private university merging with a private junior college in Taiwan. The merging extends the school program options to include five-year and two-year junior college (associate bachelor programs), and undergraduate (bachelor program), and graduate school (master's program) programs.
The school dedicated to professionalism, creativity, internationalism, future-building and the development of professional excellence spares no effort in moving toward being a top teaching-intensive university. Departments within UKN have been organized into three colleges since August 2016 as follows: the College of Nursing and Health, the College of Business and Information, and the College of Innovation and Management.
The green and orange of the school emblem symbolize health and humanity-oriented values. The orange base is in the shape of a tender palm. The five layers of green represent five varieties of fortune and health. This school emblem portrays The University of Kang Ning embracing humanity-oriented values with both hands, which constantly stimulate and foster innovation, creativity, and future-building.
