Aspiring baristas and coffee lovers, take note! National Chi Nan University in Nantou is offering a series of courses relating to the coffee industry, the first of its kind. The courses cover all aspects of the coffee making process, from planting coffee trees, to roasting and making your own hand-brewed cup of joe. There’s even a coffee plantation on campus with more than 1,000 coffee trees. Let’s find out more.
Each tiny red fruit, with its glossy skin and wafting aroma, sheds its red coat and undergoes washing, sorting, and many other intricate processes to become the coffee beans we know so well.
Nantou’s National Chi Nan University is offering an unprecedented series of courses and research related to the coffee industry in its College of Management. The university also has a coffee plantation of over 1,000 square meters on campus, with over a thousand coffee trees.

National Chi Nan University
The area around the university, including Guoxing Township, Puli Township, and Sun Moon Lake, had already started planting coffee. We thought, if coffee can grow in the surrounding region, could we also cultivate it at National Chi Nan University? In 2020, we began planting about 1,000 coffee trees here, providing a hands-on learning field for our undergraduate, master’s, and doctoral students.
From planting coffee trees, through flowering, fruiting and harvesting, to washing, drying, roasting and brewing the beans, this course combines hands-on practical experience, allowing students to master professional skills at each stage.

Joined the course
I found out that the university had this coffee course, so I joined. I learnt how to savor a cup of coffee and brew a cup of coffee that I like.
By arranging a comprehensive curriculum and transforming the campus into a dedicated coffee house, students can immerse themselves in the world of coffee and cultivate their interests. Meanwhile, more talents are being cultivated for Taiwan’s coffee industry.
