Lunghwa University placing itself as a brilliant university of technology aims to provide innovative technology services and cultivate professional experts for industries. In recent years, the industrial nature has been immensely shifted by the rapid development of appealing cloud computing, big data, internet of things (IoT), and intelligent manufacturing technologies. Being famous for its strong vocational system, Germany proposed the idea “Industry 4.0” to assist its manufacture industry from escaping recession and moving towards new world. As one of Lunghwa’s faculties and students, we should try to think about how to meet this new era as soon as possible.

It’s natural for us to confine ourselves in the current situation and unwillingly change. Living in the moment of rapid change on industrial technology, if our thinking cannot keep up in time, we will be easily ruled out in a very short time. If our students don’t hold the innovative visions, they may face uncertainties in their future career. Thus, “Flip our Thinking and start from Zero”; just like the transformation of a caterpillar becoming a butterfly. Let’s think outside of the old-fashioned box and have a brand new start to face this innovative, creative and enterprising era.
