Course Description This course requires students to take the Agricultural Research Methods (III) (EMI) course, which starts in the spring semester of 2026. Students must select an agricultural professor to conduct academic research (which can be a continuation of their previous research in Agricultural Research Methods I or II) and present their findings in the eighth week. Selected students will be asked to contact professors at Utah State University (UTA) to explore the feasibility of conducting research exchange there, based on their existing research findings, and to develop a research plan. Finally, the students' research plans will be used to communicate with UTA Professors. Six students will be selected and supported to visit UTA for a research exchange for a week. This program will align students' research with international standards and, through practical overseas visits, simulate overseas study and research scenarios, increasing students' willingness to study abroad in the future. The supervising professors will also have more opportunities to collaborate with UTA. This program will not only improve students' language skills and support their primary studies but also help them plan their future career prospects. The research team visiting UTA may be potential candidates for future international degree applications.
本課程將要求學生修習農藝學研究法(三)(EMI)課程,於學期114-2學期開始,須選擇農藝系的授課老師進行學術研究(可延續先前於農藝學研究法一或二之研究,並於第八周進行研究宣讀。其中將從學生擇優,請其與猶他州州立大學(UTA)的教授聯繫,並以現有研究成果,徵詢至該校進行研究交流的可行性,並擬定研究計畫。最後藉由學生的研究計畫與UTA教授的推薦信,將由6位學生至UTA研究交流一星期。。本活動將使學生的研究與國際接軌,並透過實際的出國參訪,模擬海外就學與研究的情境,增加學生未來出國留學的意願。帶隊老師亦可增加與UTA合作的研究機會。透過本活動不僅可提高學生的語言能力,且兼顧學生本職的學習,更能擘劃學生未來的生涯前景。其在UTA參訪的研究團隊,許是未來申請國外學位的對象。

This course trains students in fundamental experimental methods required for crop science research. Students design and conduct experiments themselves, collect and integrate data, analyze results, and write reports. Through this course, students learn how to conduct specialized scientific research independently. They gain experience in conducting independent scientific research and experience the spirit of experimental science in biological science.
訓練作物科學研究所需的基本試驗方法,由學生自己設計實驗,親自操作,調查試驗資料並整合數據,最後分析結果、撰寫報告,由本課程中學習如何獨立進行專題性的科學研究。由本課程中得到獨立進行科學研究的經驗,體驗生物科學即為實驗科學之精神。
