With an evolving global economy shaped by the changes in the social structure and societal demands over time, the public’s need for sport, leisure, tourism, and hospitality is becoming increasingly significant in today’s world. As a result, sport, and leisure services as well as the tourism industry are undergoing rapid developments. These services play a major role in the sustainable development of Taiwan’s economy.

To keep up with the current economic trends and university policy, the Graduate Institute of Sport and Leisure Management merged with the Graduate Institute of Hospitality Management in 2012 to form the Graduate Institute of Sport, Leisure and Hospitality Management (SLHM).

By integrating the existing resources, hiring specialized faculty members, and designing diverse, international, and specialized curricula, the newly formed graduate institute aims to produce highly skilled professionals in the field of sport, leisure, and hospitality management. We expect to breathe new life into the sport, leisure, and hospitality industries in Taiwan.
