Now with over 66 years of development and transformation, Ming Chuan University (MCU) started by cultivating business talents who served as the backbones of thriving economy in Taiwan and generated public recognition: ”Within every successful business there is a Ming Chuan graduate”
MCU was known as the forerunner of women's education in Taiwan, the first institution in Taiwan to have an international college which uses English as the language of instruction and interaction in class, the first U.S. accredited university in Asia, and the first institution launching an overseas campus site, out-racing its peers.
At a later stage, Ming Chuan was expanded as a comprehensive university, known for its educational philosophy - matching instruction in theory with experience in application.
The establishment of Ming Chuan University - Michigan Location (MCU-MI) was founded with the approval from the State of Michigan in the United States (April 18, 2012) and the Ministry of Education in Taiwan (July 10, 2013). The diploma of MCU-MI is recognized by governments in both the United States and Taiwan.
MCU-MI is an international joint-venture of Ming Chuan University and Saginaw Valley State University (SVSU) where the former is accredited by Middle States Commission on Higher Education and the latter by Higher Learning Commission.
One graduate program, "Teaching Chinese as a Foreign Language (TCFL),” is offered by MCU-MI. All the courses are instructed by quality faculty from both MCU and SVSU.
MCU-MI paves the avenue for Asian students to launch their voyage in the heartland of the U.S. by establishing its location on the campus of SVSU, a well-equipped university known for educating talents in the fields of communication, arts and technology. MCU-MI students equally enjoy its state of the art facilities as the students of SVSU.
