History
- The older root of the university is National Chiao Tung University, founded in 1896 in Shanghai as the Nanyang Public School by the Qing official Sheng Xuanhuai, and together with Beiyang University it was the earliest institution of higher learning founded by Chinese hands.学校较早的源头是国立交通大学,1896 年由清末官员盛宣怀在上海创办南洋公学,与北洋大学同为中国人自办的最早高等教育机构。
- The school was renamed the Imperial Polytechnic College of the Board of Commerce in 1905, became Nanyang University in 1911, and in 1912 was reorganised as the Shanghai Industrial College of the Ministry of Communications, earning the nickname of the MIT of the Orient.该校 1905 年改称商部高等实业学堂,1911 年改名南洋大学,1912 年改组为交通部上海工业专门学校,有「东方 MIT」之称。
- In 1921 the technical colleges of the Beiyang government were consolidated and the Shanghai campus became part of Chiao Tung University, which moved to Chongqing after the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War in 1937.1921 年北洋政府整合全国技术院校,上海校区并入交通大学;1937 年抗日战争爆发后学校内迁重庆。
- After 1949 the institution on the mainland was divided into Shanghai Jiao Tong University and Xi'an Jiao Tong University, and in 1958 the Institute of Electronics was re-established in Hsinchu, giving Taiwan its own Chiao Tung University.1949 年以后大陆的交通大学分为上海交通大学与西安交通大学;1958 年,交通大学在新竹复校并设立电子研究所,形成台湾本地的交通大学。
- The medical root is National Yang-Ming University, founded in 1975 as the Yang-Ming Medical College in Beitou, Taipei, with the assistance of Taipei Veterans General Hospital and at the request of the defence authorities of the time, and it was the first national medical college established in postwar Taiwan.医学源头则是 1975 年成立于台北北投的阳明医学院,由台北荣民总医院协助、并应当时防务当局之请设立,是战后台湾第一所国立医学院。
- The college was reorganised into the comprehensive National Yang-Ming University in 1994, by which time it had become a leading centre of medical education and biomedical research.该院 1994 年改组为综合性的国立阳明大学,此时它已成为台湾医学教育与生物医学研究的重镇。
- The idea of merging the two universities dates to 1998, when Yang-Ming president Chang Hsin-Shu floated the plan to National Tsing Hua University, and to 2000, when the education minister of the day brought three university heads to agree on a California-style university system.两校合并的构想可溯至 1998 年,阳明校长张心湜向清华大学校长刘炯朗提出合校建议;2000 年,时任教育部长促成三所大学校长达成仿效加州大学的联盟式大学系统共识。
- On 10 January 2001 the Chiao Tung university council passed a letter of intent to merge, and in March 2001 its president Chang Chun-Yen and Yang-Ming president Wu Yan-Hwa signed the letter under the name National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University, but the plan collapsed when the council withheld its support.2001 年 1 月 10 日,交通大学校务会议通过合并意愿书;同年 3 月,校长张俊彦与阳明校长吴妍华以「国立阳明交通大学」为名签署合并意愿书,最终因校务会议未予支持而作罢。
- The failure nevertheless produced a lasting result, since the four institutions founded the University System of Taiwan in July 2002, within which the two universities continued to cooperate for nearly two decades.这次未果的尝试却留下持久成果:2002 年 7 月四校共同成立台湾联合大学系统,两校在此框架下延续了近二十年的合作。
- In September 2015 the two universities reopened merger working-group meetings, confirmed the new name, and in December 2015 both the Yang-Ming development council and the Chiao Tung university council approved a merger memorandum.2015 年 9 月两校重启合校工作小组会议,再次确认新校名;同年 12 月,阳明校务发展委员会与交通大学务会议先后通过合校备忘录。
- The 2015 attempt failed in May 2016, when the Yang-Ming university council rejected the memorandum by 43 votes against 38 after a student press conference had questioned the speed and transparency of the process.2015 年这一轮努力于 2016 年 5 月告败:阳明大学校务会议以 43 票反对对 38 票赞成否决合校备忘录,此前学生记者会曾质疑决策仓促、不够透明。
- Yang-Ming's failure to enter the Global Taiwan programme of the Ministry of Education in 2018, whose assessors cited its small scale and narrow medical focus, pushed its council to vote on 26 September 2018 to resume merger discussions.2018 年阳明大学未入选教育部高等教育深耕计划全球链接全校型名单,评审意见指其规模偏小、过度集中生医;同年 9 月 26 日阳明校务会议决议重启合校讨论。
- Both Chiao Tung and Tsing Hua competed for the partnership, and after Chiao Tung passed its unilateral letter of intent on 28 November 2018, Yang-Ming voted on 26 December 2018 to give priority to Chiao Tung.交通大学与清华大学均表态争取;2018 年 11 月 28 日交通大学临时校务会议通过单方合校意向书,阳明大学随即于同年 12 月 26 日表决确定以交通大学为优先合校对象。
- Both university councils approved the letter of intent in late March 2019, and on 18 September 2019 they approved the merger plan itself, by votes of 65 to 20 at Yang-Ming and 59 to 15 at Chiao Tung.2019 年 3 月下旬两校校务会议先后通过合校意向书;同年 9 月 18 日通过合校计划书,阳明端 65 票赞成对 20 票反对,交大端 59 票赞成对 15 票反对。
- The Ministry of Education completed its review on 24 June 2020, and on 12 August 2020 the two universities announced that they would merge on 1 February 2021, on a merger budget of 9.5 billion New Taiwan dollars, of which 6.5 billion was to be self-raised.教育部 2020 年 6 月 24 日完成合校计划书审议,同年 8 月 12 日两校宣布自 2021 年 2 月 1 日合校,合并预算 95 亿元新台币,其中 65 亿元自筹。
- Of that budget the ministry approved 400 million New Taiwan dollars for basic facilities, while 2.6 billion New Taiwan dollars for new buildings, including a smart health building on the Yangming campus, remained subject to further approval.该预算中教育部核准 4 亿元新台币基本设施补助,而含阳明校区智慧健康大楼在内的 26 亿元新建馆舍经费仍需循公共工程程序另行申请。
