DESIGN
AND GENDER, CULTURE LAB
Advisor:
Ming-Ying
Yang
Research direction: In response to
the government’s policy of promoting gender mainstreaming and cultural and
creative industries, the laboratory will lead the students of the department’s
undergraduate and graduate departments to engage in design research and
creation related to gender and culture. The lab will actively collaborate with
local traditional craft industries and communities to enhance their cultural
merchandise design content. To fulfill the social responsibility of designers
by serving society through their design expertise. To shift the focus from
product to user, from object to context, from form and function to a broader
sense of meaning.
- To nurture female industrial design
talents and counsel them on their career development.
- To actively participate in
international professional organizations and seminars.
- To lead students to read relevant
literature in the fields of design and gender, design and culture.
- To invite relevant scholars and
experts to give lectures to the students.
品牌與智權實驗室
BRANDING AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
LAB
Advisor: Chang, Chien-Cheng
Research direction: The purpose of
this laboratory is to provide a platform for exchange with local
micro-industries, with the aim of providing education and training for

3D自造與情感介面實驗室
3D AUTONOMY AND EMOTIONAL INTERFACES
LAB
Advisor: Yu-Min Fang
Research direction: The laboratory
is equipped with a 3D printer, which is an implementation of the two
corresponding concepts of manufacturing and design. The manufacturing
(hardware) section includes a 3D printing lab, which is linked to teaching
courses such as model making, computer-aided industrial design, and advanced
computer-aided industrial design; the design (software) section not only
includes basic and advanced computer-aided industrial design, but also
corresponds to user interface design and two graduation courses, in which we
hope to introduce the concept of self-making and turn creativity into
interactive prototypes.
1.
3D digital laboratory improvements based on the design school’s practice plant,
expand the space to include 3D digital design and printing, and application
software interface design.
2.
Training of teaching assistants and management personnel and establishment of
systems.
1) Train students from the School of
Electrical Engineering and Design to be teaching assistants and provide on-site
guidance to all students on 3D model printing.
2) To cooperate with student
self-management and establish a sustainable self-management mechanism. For
example, work assignments, class cleaning area maintenance and adoption. The
documentation includes hardware improvement record sheet, student
self-management rules and organization, implementation record, and work record
sheet. The documents formed include hardware improvement record sheet, student
self-governance policy and organization, implementation record, work record
sheet, etc.
3.
Regular curriculum design and seminar activities
1) Conduct technical workshops to
train students to use tools to make models and visualize innovative concepts.
2) In response to the “self-made
concept”, two major projects, “Computer Aided Design” and
“Interactive Electronic Control Design”, are formed, and the academy
symposiums are held, resulting in the following course designs.
Computer Aided Design: Combining two courses,
“Computer Aided Industrial Design” and “Advanced Computer Aided
Industrial Design”, for course implementation, and holding the seminar
“3D Printing Technology Settings and Applications” to discuss the
settings and applications of 3D printing technology.
The Interactive Electronic Control
Design:
Combine the cross-discipline and “Interactive Interface Design”
courses, introduce FWIDE self-made module teaching tools + Google Blockly
(FlagO! Master Control Module), and hold the seminar “Self-made Trend and
Implementation Seminar”.

METALWORKING LABORATORY
Advisor: Hsiu-Jye Chiang
Research direction: This
laboratory is a practical factory, mainly used for related courses, as well as
metalworking and related materials for the research and creation of craft
products. The courses linked to this laboratory include factory practice, model
making, basic metalworking, metalworking design, integrated material
application, material integration application, ornament design, project making,
and graduation project. In addition, we also provide students with pre-working
space before participating in related exhibitions, and technical support and
consultation for graduates to start up their own business or work. In addition,
it also actively incorporates local craft materials and skills into the
curriculum to enhance the diversity and innovation of craft products.
- Cultivate metalworking and related
craft design talents.
- Actively participate in related
exhibitions and entrepreneurship planning.
行履工坊實驗室
WALKING FOOT WORKSHOP LABORATORY
Advisor: Shih-hung Cheng
Research direction: The establishment of this department was
the result of the Industrial Development Bureau of the Ministry of Economic
Affairs (MOEA)’s response to the country’s trade liberalization policy, which
aimed to upgrade the technological capacity of domestic production in order to
adapt to the impact of the industry, and to provide guidance on the maintenance
of traditional industries .Since 2018, the department has rebuilt the shoe
pattern design laboratory and established the Footwear Workshop as an
innovative teaching field, aiming to integrate the footwear industry with the
automotive industry in order to integrate the tradition of footwear pattern
design in this department with the local automotive industry in the university.
In 2018, the workshop was selected as the highlight of the year by the Ministry
of Education, and has continued to support innovative teaching and practice for
cross-domain integration. The workshop is equipped with the tools and equipment
necessary for transportation design, as well as industrial sewing machines and
lightweight sewing machines for the footwear industry.
- To nurture footwear and vehicle
design talents and counsel them on their career development. This includes
holding special seminars and establishing an online community (facebook) to
provide information on related designs.
- Actively cooperate with footwear
manufacturers and automobile manufacturers to teach and collaborate on related
professional design projects.
