台湾实践大学：设计教育的革新摇篮
实践大学成立于1958年，前身为「实践家政专科学校」，是台湾第一所以「生活美学」与「实务设计」为核心的高等学府。创校初期以家政、服装设计起家，1997年改制为大学，其台北校区与高雄校区分别成为北、南台湾的设计教育重镇。校园建筑融合包豪斯现代主义与东方禅风，清水混凝土建筑与绿意庭园相映，体现「设计即生活」的办学理念。
Internationally renowned for its design education, Shih Chien University was the first in Taiwan to adopt the Bauhaus "learning by doing" pedagogy. Its fashion design program ranks among the world's top 50 by Fashion-Schools.org, while the industrial design department maintains a unique "Design for Social Needs" curriculum. The campus features open studios accessible 24/7, reflecting its commitment to practical creativity. Global partnerships with institutions like London's Central Saint Martins enable annual collaborative projects on sustainable design.
学校以设计学院、管理学院、人文社会学院三大学群著称，其中服装设计、工业设计、媒体传达设计系全台领先。首创「师徒制工作室」制度，大一起即分配业界导师，与诚品生活、微软等企业共建实作课程。特色如「社会设计田野课」要求学生深入台湾社区解决实际问题，「跨国设计工作营」则与东京、米兰设计学院联合授课。
The university's "Design Incubation Center" hosts resident designers from Nordic countries and Japan, creating a multicultural creative environment. Its annual graduation show attracts over 50,000 visitors and industry scouts, with student works frequently featured in Milan Design Week. All design students must complete a 360-hour internship at companies like BenQ or TSMC's design division, bridging academic learning with industry needs.
从家政专科到设计标杆，实践大学始终秉持「力行实践，设计维新」的精神。它开创台湾设计教育的无数第一：首间服装博物馆、首本设计学术期刊、首个设计师驻校计划。在创意经济时代，这座学府持续证明——最好的设计教育不在图纸上，而在生活实践的每处细节中。
