Taking the Research Center of Holistic Music Development for Young Children as the basis for the promotion of featured courses provided by the Department of Early Childhood Development and Education in 2018, the Center invited the faculty members from the Department of Early Childhood Development and Education, the Department of Applied English, the Department of Information and Communication, and the Department of Industrial Design, combining their research and pedagogical resources to establish the first "University-level Research Center of Holistic Development for Young Children" in Taiwan.
