TCU GOALS

Our goal is to prepare professionals who are committed to lifelong learning, analytical and critical thinking, and working with others; moreover, prepare those who embrace the spirit of Tzu Chi Humanities and are willing to tend to those in need.

Master Cheng Yen said,” Education is the work of purifying each person’s heart, the hope and a stabilizer of our society.” Thus, Tzu Chi University emphasizes the following:

  1. Daily Life Education: To be mindful in dining, dressing, walking, and living and to acknowledge the humanity in every person.
  2. Virtue Education: Respect teachers, hold acceptable behavior, and be a faithful and responsible person.
  3. Humanities Education: Develop a spirit of contentment, gratitude, understanding, and accommodation.
  4. Appreciation for Education: Nurture students to carry out regular responsibilities and devote themselves to help others.
