Tunghai University-News-- Tunghai University held science camp in Malaysia
According to Principal Tee Bee Tin of Foon Yew High School, the FYHS Science Camp has been held for three consecutive years. This year, with the Tunghai University team on the program, the participants number has way out-run the average of 180 students. The three-day science camp with intensive experiment sessions has highly inspired the high schoolers.
Memoirs presentation in the Opening Ceremony
During the program, the Tunghai professors designed 7 chemistry-related experiments, such as aluminum recycling, the extraction of caffeine from tea leaves, and the beautiful chemical sea garden; 2 life-science-related experiments, such as the simulation of wetland ecology and Gram Staining; as well as water purification (environmental engineering), wireless charging (electrical engineering), Arduino auto-driven car (computer science) and other experiments of different academic levels. Students were able to understand the basic theories of chemical reactions and logistics of programming through the intriguing experiments. The program was designed to raise the students’ interests towards science and engineering.

Additionally, Professor Wen-Haw Chen of the Department of Applied Mathematics delivered two speeches: “Math Under Civilization, Logic, and Aesthetic Perspectives” towards a group of teachers, and “Into the World of Math” towards the students. By leading the audience to view math from the perspectives of arts and life, the two speeches received great feedbacks.
