History

In 1961, a university was established in central Taiwan, called Feng Chia College of Engineering and Business, to commemorate Mr. Feng-Chia Chiu (Qiu Fengjia). In 1961 the college was formally established near the Da-Tun Mountain in northern Taichung City, and two years later moved to the present site, Xitun in western Taichung. In 1980 it gained university status.
