The Department of Urban Planning and Landscape was founded in 2013. We aim to foster students’ understanding of urban planning and landscape skills. Our faculty members have conducted abundant research on sustainable environmental design, urban and rural planning, and landscape planning and design. We also work closely with government agencies, local institutions, and various NGOs to make our living environment livable and sustainable. In light of the special geographic location of Kinmen, we have also conducted integrative projects of urban and landscape planning in the Kinmen-Xiamen region. Upon graduation, our students will be capable of working in the urban planning and landscape industries as well as conducting research in both domestic and international research institutes.

"In the past, Kinmen had no university. Like all other Kinmen students, I had to leave home to attend college on the Taiwan main island. The trip to Taiwan on military landing vessels' main island was an extremely arduous journey. We traveled in and must endure 20 hours of turbulent waves just to reach Taiwan."



20 years ago Chien-Min Chen, now the President of the National Quemoy University (NQU), returned to Kinmen with a mission in mind to bring higher education to his hometown. The NQU began as an institute of technology school rose in rank and is now Quemoy University. It bears the hopes and expectations of Kinmen people, both local and abroad, hoping to spread the spirit of Kinmen through education. 



Located only 30 minutes away from Xiamen,  Kinmen has transformed itself from a military stronghold into an important bridge of communication across the  Taiwan Strait today. The university's Peace Research Center, for example, aims to consolidate the peace across the Taiwan Strait by creating a school of thought infused with Kinmen's unique perspective. There are 165 overseas students from Mainland China, Southeast Asia, and even Africa. The geographical diversity of students helps create a global village ambiance on campus. 



At the NQU, equal emphases are placed on classroom learning and real-world practice. To better prepare our students for the digital revolution, the College of Science and Engineering has been strengthening robotics disciplines. Our unprecedented Mixed Reality eSports Center effectively develops virtual reality talents, and our Cloud Classroom provides digital-assisted teaching. 



Our College of Management's executive Ph.D. program will start to accept enrollment applications in 2021 to help provide doctoral professionals to the businesses and industries in Kinmen.



As Kinmen is an island featuring a happy lifestyle, the NQU  is committed to its university social responsibilities to make the island even more livable with the school's Departments of Long Term Care, Nursing, and Social Work to actively involve themselves in community outreach and provide comprehensive care. to local elderlies.
