History

Shih Hsin University was re-established in Taiwan in 1956 as Shih Hsin School of Journalism by the journalists and publishers Cheng Shewo and Yeh Ming-hsun.[18] Originally an institution devoted to training professional journalists, the school became a full-fledged university in August 1997.
