◎A Building of Our Own

The Department is located in a new, six story building plus basementspecifically designed for textiles and clothing educational purposes, occupying an area of 9000 square meter. It was largely funded with the generous support from Chung Shing Textile Co., Ltd. and named Chao Yun Building in honor of the late President of the Company.

The great advantage of having a building of our own is to make it easier to create an educational environment and atmosphere conducive andexpressive of our own TC Department Culture. Mutual consideration, friendliness, cooperation, punctuality, order, cleanliness, careful and economical use of supplies and resources are values and virtues which are learned more by way of mutual encouragement and personal example than through classroom teaching.

The co-creation of a supportive environment and atmosphere for holistic human development depends on students and faculty alike and requires daily effort.
