In teaching and research, GL features transcending traditional boundaries by a combination of political science and law, and “State” is its core element in programming curriculum of all programs, i.e. by the concept “State” to connect political science with law. The courses in the part of political science focus on government organizations and policies. In the part of law is on administrative law and constitutional law. This Department also provides core courses in traditional Civil, Commercial Law and Criminal Law.
Teaching Goals
Seeing that many of law practitioners are deficient in political idea and vision, and politician deficient in sense of rule of law, the founder and the first President of NUK, Professor Jen- Hung Wang, recognized that it is necessary and important to set up GL for the domestic political development and rule of law. The faculty shares such subjective, and adheres to the following principle and goal in running GL:
1. Core principle: Connecting political science with law in teaching and research by the concept “State” to help promote and consolidate the development of Democracy and rule of law.

•Offering interdisciplinary courses equally in political science and law;
•Integrating theories and practices in teaching and research;
•Giving consideration to professional knowledge with humanistic concern; and
•Developing a free, participative, and open-minded academic base.
