Chang of Tamkang University to be one of its three co-directors: the other two are President Chang Chuen-Yen of National Chiao Tung University and former President of National United University, Dai Cheng-Fang.

The Committee is also dedicated to international academic exchange, spreading the news of the latest top-quality research results between Taiwan and the international academic community.

The other branches include National Chiao Tung University, Academia Sinica, National United University, National Cheng Kung University, National Sun Yat-Sen University, I-Shou University, and Chang Gung University.
