Located in the south side of campus, the Tsing Hua Laboratory（2018）was funded by alumni donations and a subsidy from the Ministry of Education. The building has nine stories above ground plus a basement, with a total floor space of 15,000 square meters divided amongst 100 individual laboratories. The building’s design gives special emphasis to earthquake protection, control of micro-vibration, and dust prevention. The Lab is located close to the Hsinchu Science Park, the Industrial Technology Research Institute, and the Taiwan Photon Source（TPS）of the National Synchrotron Radiation Research Center（NSRRC）, making Hsinchu the core of Taiwan’s high-tech industry. NTHU president Hocheng Hong （賀陳弘） has compared the Tsinghua Lab and the adjacent Innovation & Incubation Center to two bright pearls reflecting one another in perfect harmony.
