[edit] History

National Chengchi University was established in 1927 in Nanjing as the Kuomintang's Central Party Affairs School. In 1929, it changed its name to Central Political School, after the "Northern Expedition" victory of Nationalists in Mainland China. In 1946, National Chengchi University was formally founded, signifying the end of the Second Sino-Japanese War. When the Nationalist Party lost control in Mainland China in 1949, the university's activities were halted, but the university opened once again in Taipei in 1954 to meet the growing demand of tertiary education in Taiwan. At first, it was exclusively for graduates, but in 1955, undergraduate programs opened.

[edit] Location

NCCU is located at the foot of Chi-nan Mountain in the south of Taipei City, with the Ching-mei River in the west, creating a beautiful and tranquil learning environment.
