"Greenergy" is abbreviated from two words: "Green" and "Energy". Generally speaking, greenergy means to use the least amount of energy resources so as to minimize the burden on the environment. The Department of Greenergy (DG) was established with the aim to improve energy efficiency in end-use sectors and to increase the diversity of energy resources consistent with an economically and environmentally sustainable future. More concretely, the institute is focused on the development of greenergy, such as solar, wind power, hydrogen and fuel cells. In response to evidence of global damage and diminishing reserves of fossil fuels, there is increasing pressure for people to intelligently manage the provision of energy from conventional dirty sources, and to increase the supply from clean and renewable sources. The mission of DG is to make a worthwhile and significant contribution to the development and deployment of greenergy through providing research, consultancy and education of the highest standard.
The educational goals of the DG are to provide students with the multidisciplinary background to make the scientific and technical breakthroughs that will produce advances in greenergy. In addition, graduates from DG will have broad knowledge in areas such as environmental science and engineering, ecology and conservation biology, environmental education and interpretation.
1.To cater to the sustainable administration of our country and green energy policies.
2.To promote environmental protection and train professionals in maintaining an ecological environment.
3.To develop green energy transfer systems, energy reservation fuel cells systems, rechargeable batteries, and energy-saving electro-optic devices.

DG annually recruits a number of freshmen. Successful admission to the graduate program can be achieved by passing either the competitive entrance examination or through a highly selective application process.
1.Career Development
Students from this department gain practical experience in energy system engineering and management. They are highly favored and can be recruited by an array of companies, district administrations, government agencies, and foundations of ecological, environmental or social concern. Furthermore, with their normal training, they can attend the science teacher's screening tests for high school or elementary school.
2.Research Institutes
Students from this department are trained in the basis of theory and experimentation. They are often recruited and are favored by research institutes, such as the Industrial Technology Research Institute.
3.Graduates from DG are well prepared to provide quality professional services and research work in the area of energy. Prospective employers include power companies, energy-saving companies (ESCO), fuel cell companies, and environmental protection agencies at all levels of government, as well as research and academic institutes. They are also encouraged to pursue Ph.D. degrees in various fields, such as materials science, energy engineering, mechanical engineering, chemical engineering, and electrical engineering.
