On November 10, 2026, Dean Tyrus Miller and Associate Dean Yong Chen of the School of Humanities at the University of California, Irvine (UCI), accompanied by Professor Ping-chen Hsiung, CIPSH Chair on New Humanities at UCI, visited the Foundation and were warmly received by President Chun-i Chen and Vice-President Miaw-fen Lu. The primary objective of Dean Miller’s visit was to meet with President Chen and express his sincere gratitude for the Foundation’s past research grant funding for UCI's various research projects. During the meeting, Associate Dean Chen reflected on the “California School” that emerged in the 1980s, noting that its leading figures, such as Kenneth Pomeranz and R. Bin Wong, mostly taught at UCI, thereby underscoring UCI’s profound and long-standing tradition in Chinese Studies. Building upon this academic heritage, UCI is now actively promoting Taiwan Studies and the distinct field of Taiwanese-American Studies. By further integrating AI into its curriculum, UCI aspires to establish itself as a global center for knowledge exchange in the near future.
