This index is calculated by counting the program’s teaching hours dedicated to CSR, ethics, social and environmental issues. This year’s NSYSU CSR rank has greatly increased, from the 89th last year to this year’s 78th place. The CEO of the EMBA program Jack Shieh-Chieh Hsu said, that the teachers incorporate the idea of CSR in their teaching program to cultivate future managers conscious about CSR issues and with a high mobility.
