Spring has arrived and the NTU campus is awash with vibrant hues of pink as her signature azaleas burst into bloom. It’s time for the highly-anticipated annual NTU Azalea Festival, a celebration of the campus’s unique charm and vitality that draws aspiring young students from all over the country.

This year’s festival was especially grand, since visitors could experience the University’s charisma and vitality in person. The two-day event kicked off with a mesmerizing performance by the NTU Juggling Club and the NTU Wind Band, following a warm welcome from President Wen-Chang Chen.

Festival attendees had the opportunity to explore the booths at the NTU Sports Center to learn about the cutting-edge research and studies at NTU’s wide range of academic departments. They could also visit the student club expo and witness first-hand the incredible diversity of interests and talents of the NTU students.

Besides the in-person festivities, the opening ceremony and department and student club expos were also livestreamed online, allowing the NTU family and the general public from every corner of the world to participate in the event and observe the breathtaking beauty of the azaleas on campus.

Last year, the festival was held entirely online, with an innovative VR interface that created an immersive experience. Even though the festival was held in person this year, the online department expo still offered plentiful information on NTU’s various programs, such as the University-Level Interdisciplinary Bachelor’s Program, the College-Level Interdisciplinary Bachelor’s Program, the Trans-Disciplinary Bachelor Degree Program, as well as information about overseas admissions from the NTU Office of International Affairs, for those who couldn’t attend the event in person.

Whether you are a prospective student or simply wish to learn more about NTU, the festival’s webpage provides up-to-date information on the University latest academic achievements and offerings. Don’t miss your chance to experience the incredible beauty and vibrant energy of NTU!
