| Half a century has passed. From a book of knowledge with a nation-building mission in 1976 to today, UEH has grown into one of the leading universities in Asia.
This is the journey of 8 heritage values that form UEH’s internal strength, preserved and transformed across generations of UEHers. From Unity – Compassion, which laid the foundation in the early years; Dedication – Community – Pioneering, which shaped today’s identity and standing; to Creation – Sustainability – Internationalization, which opens up the vision for the future. These 8 values crystallize into a heritage of internal strength, connecting the past, present, and aspirations, and continuing to guide UEH in co-creating the future. Stay tuned for UEH’s 50th anniversary celebration event: UEH Grand Anniversary “Embracing Future Together” On October 27, 2026, at A.116 Hall and livestreamed on UEH’s media and social media platforms.
