Abstract

Taipei Medical University (TMU) is committed to advancing bilingual education through comprehensive efforts focusing on immersive AI-assisted learning environments, professional training for EMI teachers, and active promotion of industry-academia and international cooperation.

AI-Assisted Bilingual Learning Environments TMU emphasizes comprehensive development in students’ English listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills. An AI adaptive English learning platform provides detailed learning analytics. Sophomore courses enhance general English skills and offer specialized courses like medical English, academic writing, and oral communication. Daily engLive activities engage students in academic expression, communication, and critical thinking, while the English Clinic provides personalized assessments. 

Professional Training for EMI Teachers. TMU offers diverse professional training for teachers, including workshops and lectures on teaching methods and technology-assisted EMI instruction. Collaboration with Oxford University provides EMI training courses to enhance teachers' English teaching capabilities. Teachers engage in cross-disciplinary EMI projects. AI-assisted EMI instruction, supported by TMU’s Medical Simulation Education Center, integrates virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) into EMI courses, significantly promoting the quality of EMI instruction.

Industry-Academia and International Cooperation. TMU strengthens research and teaching collaborations with top international universities, offering various cross-national courses. Notably, the School of Dentistry co-teaches “Global Humanities and Oral Health” with McGill University, while the College of Medical Science and Technology collaborates with institutions like the University of Illinois, the University of Helsinki, and the University of Cagliari on specialized courses. These partnerships enhance students’ EMI learning, professional skills, and cross-cultural communication, preparing them to become globally competitive biomedical professionals.
