High-Tech Industry Supply Chains in Taiwan

Professor

Ming-Shiow Lo

This course provides an in-depth exploration of the high-tech industry supply chains in Taiwan, focusing on the intricate networks, key players, and global implications. Through a combination of lectures, case studies, discussions, and hands-on activities, students will gain insights into the dynamics of Taiwan's high-tech supply chains, including their evolution, challenges, and strategic importance in the global economy.

Additionally, students will have the opportunity to participate in a practical exercise known as the "Beer Game" to understand the root causes of the bullwhip effect commonly observed in supply

chains and explore potential solutions.

Geopolitics

Professor Chia- Yi Lee

This short course introduces students to the concept of geopolitics and its influence on the technology sector, especially the

semiconductor industry. We will go through different schools and theories of geopolitics, and will cover a variety of related issues, including energy, trade, investment, and great power competition. While the focus is on global geopolitics, special attention will be paid to Asia and Taiwan—the global semiconductor

manufacturing hub. This six-hour course will be divided into two parts: In the first half, we will discuss the theory and different dimensions of geopolitics, and students will work in groups to apply the theory to the issues/areas of their own choice. In the second half, we will focus on geopolitics and the impact on the semiconductor industry in Taiwan. Students will work on risk analysis to assess different scenarios in which the industry might

be impacted.

The Current US-Taiwan Corporations in Security and Economic Arena

Professor Chong-Han Wu

This course will focus on the intensive trade war initiated by the Trump administration that created any significant impacts on Taiwan’s economic strategy, especially in the security and

economic arena. In addition, it will cover more studies on the US- Taiwan relations under the Biden’s administration, focusing on supply chain and technology coordinations. By learning several principle components under the US-Taiwan cooperation

framework, the students will acquire some key concepts and knowledge about the Initiative on the 21st Century Trade and the 2023 CHIPS and Science Act, which encourage foreign

semiconductor companies (the Taiwan Semiconductor

Manufacturing Company (TSMC), to fortify the supply chain and chip production and invest in the United States.
