Feng Chia University

Website: en.fcu.edu.tw

This is a change of venue from a hotel ballroom. Feng Chia University is a well-established private institution in Taiwan with great recognition from the local business sector. As one of the most popular study destinations for youngsters in Taiwan, it currently has a student population of around 20,000 in 32 undergraduate departments, which provides a good source of student pool for postgraduate recruitment locally and overseas. It is located in the centre of the city of Taichung and is easily accessible to visitors and students from five other local institutions in the city.

As part of the promotion for the Exhibition, we are working with the University to further focus our advertising campaign on the campus as well as to the student communities around Taiwan. For exhibiting institutions, it will also be an excellent platform for direct exposure to the target audiences.
