The History Department at NTU has been in existence for over 80 years. The Department is known for its transmission of excellent scholarship in Chinese History, Western History and Japanese History. The Department is also known for its distinctive studies in Taiwan History conducted in light of Southeast Asian history and anthropology (especially ethnology but also physical anthropology).

The present Department of History was established in November 1945. Due to vicissitudes of time and history, a group of first-rate historians came to Taiwan to carry on their scholarship and teaching. Since then, the Department has continued to develop and transmit their legacy-- the Modern Chinese Historiography Movement. With this solid foundation, we successfully preserved our academic core during the repressive ‘50s and ‘60s and continued to be the vanguard of historical inquiry in Taiwan.

In the late 1960s, the Department of History led in incorporating the new methods of social science to analyze historical data. This effort stirred all sorts of new reflections and ushered in a bright new page in the writing of Postwar History. With the political and economic liberalization of the mid 1980s, historical studies conducted at the Department became more free and diversified, especially in the fields of Taiwan History and Western History. In the late ‘90s, East Asian History began to receive more attention, reflecting this new global trend in historical studies.

Additionally, the Department has published Historical Inquiry, with an independent board of editors. This journal has won the acclaim of historians worldwide and is regarded as the best academic history journal published in Taiwan.
