我認為教學與研究的關係如同一枚硬幣的兩面,缺一不可。不能只專注於研究而忽略學術貢獻,反之亦然。然而,平衡這兩者並不容易,因為顯而易見的選擇往往偏向研究,而大學則必須優先提供高品質的教育。
我在東京工業大學(東工大)與京都大學(京大)各任職九年,歷經艱辛與紮實的專業歷練,學會了如何妥善平衡教學與研究。東工大的教育理念是培養學生具備「創新匠心」,而京大的理念則是鼓勵學生養成「互動與自主」的思維。隨著陽明交通大學(NYCU)的成立,融合了原交通大學與陽明大學的校訓,我以「4C理念」來詮釋其精神:Creativity(知新致遠),Commitment(崇實篤行),Conviction(真知力行),Care(仁心仁術)。在吸收日本兩所頂尖大學的核心價值後,我現已全心投入NYCU的4C精神,並期許自己在研究與教學領域中皆能全力以赴。
目前已開設大學部與研究所的EMI(全英語授課)課程,課程內容改編自京都大學與東京科學大學(東京科学大学,於2024年由東京工業大學與東京醫科齒科大學合併而成)之既有課程。

Taiwan’s landscape is characterized by steep mountains, hilly terrains, and a subtropical climate, often resulting in slope disasters, triggered by heavy rainfalls and strong earthquakes. The impact of groundwater and the presence of unfavorable geological structures with numerous discontinuous surfaces increase the risk of large-scale landslides near urban infrastructure and residential areas. These substantial damages emphasize the need for practical strategies in landslide hazard remediation, aiming at improving disaster prevention measures and reducing maintenance costs. This course aims to deliver a comprehensive understanding of various failure modes, stability analysis methods, and engineering applications through theoretical and physical modelling, supplemented by actual case studies.
臺灣地形以陡峭山脈、丘陵地勢及副熱帶氣候為特徵,常因豪雨與強震引發坡地災害。地下水的影響以及存在許多不連續面的不利地質構造,使得鄰近都市基礎設施與住宅區的大規模崩塌風險顯著升高。此類重大災損凸顯坡地災害整治策略之實務需求,以強化防災措施並降低後續維護成本。本課程旨在透過理論與實體模型,輔以實際案例,提供各類破壞模式、穩定性分析方法與工程應用之全面理解。
Taiwan is situated along the Ring of Fire; therefore, earthquake disasters are inevitable, yet their impact can be prevented or mitigated. The 921 Taiwan Great Earthquake, also known as the 1999 Chi-Chi (Jiji) earthquake, prompted Taiwan to advance its knowledge and technology, laying the foundation for greater redundancy, robustness, and resilience. The lessons from severe earthquake damage call for universities to wake up and familiarize students with the field of soil dynamics and geotechnical earthquake engineering. Lectures begin with the causes of earthquakes, in relation to engineering geology, including plate tectonics, subsurface structure, continental collision, crustal deformation, earthquake hazards, and seismology. The course will then focus on soil dynamic behavior, soil liquefaction, laboratory testing, and dynamic response modeling for seismic analysis and design. These topics are explained from the viewpoint of geotechnical engineering, with emphasis on fundamental principles and practical applications.
課程簡介與目標:台灣位處環太平洋地震帶,地震災害不可避免,然而其影響可透過妥善的工程設計與防災規劃加以預防或減輕。921台灣大地震(亦稱1999年集集地震)促使台灣在地震相關知識與技術方面持續精進,為提升系統冗餘性,結構韌性與整體抗災能力奠定了基礎。嚴重地震災害所帶來的教訓,促使高等教育機構應正視此議題,積極培養學生對土壤動力學與大地地震工程領域的認識。課程將從地震成因切入,結合工程地質的觀點,涵蓋板塊構造,地下結構,大陸碰撞、地殼變形、地震災害與地震學等主題。接著將聚焦於土壤動態行為,土壤液化,實驗室試驗方法,以及地震分析與設計所需的動態反應建模。上述內容將以大地工程的角度進行講解,強調基本原理與實務應用。
