Tunghai University President Guo-En Chang said that the traditional agriculture, animal husbandry and food industries are facing transformation challenges. Through the industry-university cooperation with Carrefour, Tunghai University College of Agriculture and Health will integrate the resources of various departments to facilitate both theory and practice in cultivating students’ holistic development in sustainable agriculture. In addition, students are also encouraged to invest in emerging industries such as animal well-being managers, senior life planners, and green diet management, so as to meet future employment trends.

Carrefour General Manager Chun-Chao Wang said that Tunghai University is one of the few schools in Taiwan that has a complete range of agricultural production to follow-up food management. Through the cooperation, Carrefour hopes to assist in the upgrading of the agricultural and animal husbandry industry, and jointly cultivate a new force for industrial transformation in Taiwan.
