In general, more than 90% of our alumni work in the private sector. Due to geographic proximity and NCTU(now known as NYCU) tradition, around 70% of our graduates pursue and accept positions in high-tech including semiconductor, communications and photoelectric industries. Based on personal interests and career plans, our graduates also pursue business careers in traditional manufacturing, information technology, finance, consulting, healthcare or logistics.
Most of our PhD graduates select academic positions. In recent years, there is an increasing trend to work in non-academic environments in response to industry needs.
