Additionally, it can host and support major domestic and international competitions, expanding the value chain of the soccer industry.Yueh-Tuan Chen stated that the National University of Kaohsiung (NUK) has always adhered to the goal of "linking with industry and society" in its governance. Cooperating with national policies, the Ministry of Education approved adding a soccer division to the Department of Athletic Performance in 2022 (academic year 111), establishing a university-level soccer team. Special thanks are given to Shyh-Fang Liu, the Minister of the Interior, for her dedicated efforts in facilitating this during her tenure as a Member of the Legislative Yuan.

Located in the northeastern corner of the campus, it has a total area of 7,384.76 square meters (104.6 meters × 70.6 meters) and received the "FIFA QUALITY PRO" certification from the International Federation of Association Football. This allows faculty and students to improve their skills safely and enables the hosting and supporting of major domestic and international competitions, expanding the value chain of the soccer industry.Moreover, the installation art "Legacy and Elevation" at the soccer field features silhouettes of different-age soccer players, depicting a continuous motion of playing soccer. It showcases the growth journey of soccer players and conveys the idea of passing down skills and spirit through generations. Furthermore, it is also a symbol that encourages NUK soccer players to demonstrate strong determination and advance into the world's top 100, bringing recognition to Taiwan on the international stage.In the future, the plans for the soccer field encompass the installation of spectator seating and solar panels. This will not only enhance the benefits of the sports facility and cultivate more soccer players and enthusiasts but also actively respond to the national green energy policy and the "Net Zero 2050" goal. These efforts reflect NUK's commitment to promoting the spirit of the UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).Since its establishment nearly two years ago, the NUK soccer team has delivered outstanding performances. Last year (2023), they won the "University Football Association Men's Division 3" championship with a perfect record of 10 wins, earning promotion. This year, they again achieved a perfect record with 13 wins in the "Men's Division 2," claiming the championship title.

21st Graduation Ceremony of NUK President Chen Yueh-Tuan: Utilize Cross-Disciplinary Skills to Face Future Challenges Mayor Chen Chi-Mai: Learning to Make Choices and Persist in Life
【Translator: Zhi-Yu Yang】【Promotion of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) series】2024-06-01 The National University of Kaohsiung (NUK) held its 21st graduation ceremony today(June 1). President Chen Yueh-Tuan encouraged the graduates to face the challenges of the AI wave and digital transformation with a proactive attitude, leveraging the interdisciplinary skills cultivated at the university to create competitive advantages and new opportunities. Kaohsiung Mayor Chen Chi-Mai was invited to deliver a speech, sharing his life story and imparting the lesson, "When you encounter failure, don't rush to get up. Instead, learn to make choices and persist." President Chen Yueh-Tuan stated that NUK has been ranked first among "public general medium-sized universities" for two consecutive years in the survey of the "Top 2,000 Enterprises' Most Favored University Graduates." This accolade is a testament to the university's efforts to integrate academic learning with industry needs and establish strong connections. Chen emphasized that the university's governing goals are "industry linkage and social linkage," in adherence to the central government's "2050 Net Zero Emissions" policy, aligning with Kaohsiung City's "Net Zero City Development Autonomy Regulations" passed in 2023, and continuing to uphold the honor of being a "green university."Chen Yueh-Tuan also encouraged graduates to stay strong and brave when facing the future. She emphasized that while the world constantly changes, " attitude " is the only constant." With the advent of the AI and digital transformation era, graduates should continue enhancing the interdisciplinary skills developed during their studies to create competitiveness in their professional fields. The ceremony especially honored Shi Hong-Qiang, a Tayal student from the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, who became the first student from NUK to receive the "Presidential Education Award." Shi demonstrated remarkable resilience and determination, overcoming adversity and achieving well-deserved recognition.Kaohsiung Mayor Chen Chi-Mai, as a guest speaker, encouraged graduates with his own life story, saying, "When you encounter failure, don't rush to get up." Chen admitted that losing the 2018 Kaohsiung mayoral election left him in a daze for several days. His team members reminded him, "They haven't given up, so what reason do I have not to be strong?" This prompted him to calm down, face himself bravely, reflect on the reasons for the setback, and consider the next steps. Rushing to get up would only lead to more obstacles.Chen Chi-Mai also shared that it is essential to cherish family relationships, as they will be your greatest spiritual support. Life involves learning to make choices, and it is impossible always to be a winner. One should remain humble and willing to learn, review failures, and find the core ideas that must be upheld. It would help if you continuously improve your professional abilities to avoid being surpassed or replaced and strive to benefit others' lives. Stepping out of the campus will only sometimes be smooth sailing, but graduates are encouraged to persist in their ideals and overcome complex challenges with immense courage.Li Zong-ming, the president of the NUK Alumni Association, stated that he actively engages with various departments within the university, showing concern for the development of school affairs and the needs of teachers and students. He supports student activities and funding for constructing the artificial turf football field and public art project "Heritage and Ascension." During the 2023 school evaluation, he passionately recommended his beloved alma mater to the visiting committee as an "interactive stakeholder." He also used the story of Hong-Qiang to encourage younger students, reminding them that even if they feel like "children caught in the rain without an umbrella" and face frustrations, they should remember the guidance and care from NUK professors and the donations and support from alumni. This assistance helps them complete their studies, demonstrating the spirit of "NUK people taking care of Kaohsiung University people" and fostering a virtuous cycle.For more information, please refer to our school's graduation ceremony section: https://sa.nuk.edu.tw/p/412-1009-4382.php?Lang=zh-tw #SDG1 #SDG4 #SDG13 #SDG17 @Student Affairs Division &Activity
