Student Development Center

1. Psychological Consultation Service

It seems that worries and distresses are not avoidable in our lives. Hardly any people can go through the difficulties themselves. Entangled in the feelings of loss and pain. If people know how and where to get help, they can find support and assistance. Counseling and assistance are a process, through which the counselor interacts with the students to help themselves clarify the problems and understand themselves so that they can find appropriate ways to solve the problems.

In each semester, there are about 400-600 students coming for counseling services. The problems as relationship between genders and interrelationship are the most popular ones among the students. In addition, they also come to ask for suggestions on emotional management and career planning. Our full- time and part-time counselors are glad to give professional counseling services to the students as well as carry out promotional work on psychological hygiene with the expectation to accompany the students to spend their colorful university lives at Chao-Yang.

Our consultation hours are from 9:10 AM to 8:30 PM, Monday to Friday. In addition to the counselors of our school, we also employ experts in psychological counseling to act as counselors, offering more professional services to the students.

2. Psychology Testing Services

In our center, we offer various psychology tests. With the assistance of our professional counselors, the students can understand their own personalities, career aptitude, interrelationships, psychological health and conditions of study in more objective ways.

Psychological tests can be taken by any individual, class, or group.

3. Class Assistance and Group Counseling

With the assistance of the counselor, a class can explore the topic the students wish to understand with the solution designed by the counselor. In addition to preventing the behaviors of mal-adaptation, it can also help the students unblock their potentialities. Likewise, they can enjoy solid and meaningful university lives.

In group counseling, there are 8 to 12 members meeting regularly for 4 to 6 weeks. Guided by professional teachers, they explore the topics (such as relationship between genders, self-exploration, interrelations, etc.) they have common interest in. Through sharing and supporting each other, the participants can have more knowledge of their inner-selves and learn the skills of finding the best solutions to the problems.

4. Internship/Job Placement and Alumni Service

We believe that apart from the acquisition of knowledge through the completion of specialized courses, university education should also help students to enhance their self-awareness, life planning and career development so that they will have a good understanding of employment. University education is important because it has the function of nurturing students to become valuable talents who can contribute to society. Therefore, the Center has undertaken the tasks of activating student’s potential to carry out career planning, helping the students to improve their competitiveness in employment and enhancing alumni services as its main goals. The section offers various services such as career compatibility discovery courses, career development seminars, job opportunity presentations, employment/recruiting registrations, awards for professional skills and graduate surveys.

We hope that through these services, we would be able to guide the students in the right direction in life so that they can plan their future in advance and better themselves. Ultimately, we are committed to helping students find suitable jobs right after graduation and to be able to be familiar with their work in the shortest time possible.
