＊Soochow University was established in Soochow city (now spelled Suzhou) in China’s Jiangsu Province by missionaries of the American Methodist Church in March 1900, by merging three already existing schools, the Buffington Institute and the Kung Hang School in Soochow and the Anglo-Chinese College in Shanghai. In Chinese the university’s name is “Dong Wu” University, meaning “Eastern Wu” University, because Soochow is in the area which was the eastern part of the State of Wu in early Chinese history.

Soochow University has been a private university since 1900, the oldest private university of the nation. The university provides high quality education that prepares students to make significant contributions to the nation. There are now 5 schools and 23 departments. The enrollment is about 12,000. The Schools of Arts, Science, and Foreign Languages and Cultures are located at scenic Waishuangshi near the National Palace Museum. The Schools of Law, Business and the Extension School are located at the downtown campus in the Chung Cheng District, the political and commercial center of Taipei, where professionals in business and law are easily accessible. Soochow University may be small, yet as a full-fledged university, it is distinguished in content and quality.
