Clubs and Extracurricular Activities

In total, there are now 25 student associations and 54 student clubs at Wenzao. The student clubs are basically divided into 5 categories: academic, skill, service/synthesis, PE/entertainment, and others. Wenzao student clubs have received awards year after year from the Work Committee of the Evaluation of National College Clubs. The notable achievements of the Torch-Light Club, Share-Our-Spirit Club, and Tzuchi Teenager Association of Wenzao Club are highly esteemed for promoting social services. In addition, beginning with academic year 2001, the College began organizing a Wenzao Festival. During the festival, teachers and students demonstrate the results of their learning. Scores of activities take place, including graduation performances, designated topic speeches, speech contests, seminars, themed exhibitions, dancing, and food tasting. The teachers and students in Wenzao all have opportunities to demonstrate not only creativity and talent, but also to create closer bonds with the local community.

Internship and Employment Counseling

Foreign students may practice and apply what they have learned at school in the marketplace through many opportunities for on-campus and off-campus internships. Moreover, the Placement Section organizes off-campus internships during winter and summer vacations on a regular basis in order to provide students with chances to get involved in the job market before they are graduated. In addition, Wenzao cooperates in organizing an annual employment exhibition with the National Youth Commission every March or April to help graduates search for job openings. We also arrange a variety of activities including résumé writing, techniques for interviews, analyses of the trends in the workforce, and on-site job openings. All these services actively help both the enterprises and our students reach a win-win working relationship.
