【USR Hub】"Taipei City University 1+101" Taipei Net-Zero Collaboration Platform Project - ESG Talent Sustainability Lecture Series – From USR to CSR and ESG: How Can Humanities Students Become Solvers of Social Issues?

This lecture invited Mr. Hong Jian-Ting, Deputy Spokesperson of Quanyi Industrial Co., Ltd., to share the latest trends in sustainable development in domestic enterprises and offer career advice to students from humanities fields. Mr. Hong has a background in public administration from university. After graduation, he worked for a non-profit organization, engaging in social welfare. He later studied in the UK and the US. Upon returning to Taiwan, he worked in both the technology and industrial sectors at publicly listed companies, with roles closely related to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG). Mr. Hong is highly renowned in the field of social innovation and has wide involvement in the public sector and academia. His life experiences are highly inspiring, especially for students majoring in public affairs. At the start, Mr. Hong generously shared his personal contact details, inviting students to reach out to him, and even offered to assist with writing recommendation letters. He then explained that with the arrival of the AI era, students can cultivate interdisciplinary thinking through various means, such as internships. Additionally, as ESG is becoming increasingly important, there is a strong demand in the business sector for talents with public affairs expertise. To prepare, Mr. Hong suggested that students pursue ISO certifications, pointing out that there are free resources available for learning, and it is not necessary to sign up for commercial tutoring services. Furthermore, he encouraged everyone to improve their foreign language skills. In addition to English, he emphasized the value of learning the languages of Southeast Asian countries such as Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia, and the Philippines, as this will enhance their competitiveness in the job market.
