Following the merger of the former National Pingtung University of Education and the National Pingtung Institute of Commerce and Technology into the National Pingtung University (NPTU) in 2014, the strengths of our university's higher education, teacher training, and vocational systems have been integrated. In line with our university's vision of enhancing international competitiveness, every effort has been made to promote both domestic and foreign language courses and initiatives with utmost dedication.

The Chinese Language Center (CLC) was established on August 1st, 2005, originally under the College of Humanities and Social Sciences at our university. Starting from February 1st, 2020, in response to the needs of academic development, the university underwent organizational adjustments. As a result, the responsibilities of Mandarin Chinese division of the Language Center were transferred to the Mandarin Chinese Teaching Center under the Office of International Affairs. Under the guidance of successive leaders, the center has steadfastly and steadily cultivated local language education.

 Since its establishment, the center has upheld the educational principles of "guiding students, serving the community, and expanding international cultural exchanges."  With collective efforts, we have wholeheartedly provided friendly and comprehensive services to each student, the community, and foreign individuals.
