Clarivate Analytics released the 2020 Directory of Highly Cited Researchers on November 19. The top three countries are the U.S., China, and the U.K. 12 scholars from Taiwan made it into the list. Jo-Shu Chang (張嘉修) is THU Distinguished Chair Professor and the Dean of the College of Engineering, on top of which he also holds the honor of Chair Professor in the Department of Chemical Engineering at National Cheng Kung University (NCKU) and a Visiting Professor at Kobe University (Kobe, Japan). He has remained in the Cross-Field category for two consecutive years. Professor Wei-Hsin Chen (陳維新)--both THU Distinguished Chair Professor and Distinguished Professor in the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics at Cheng Kung University--has entered the list of highly cited scholars in the field of engineering for five consecutive years, making him the first in Taiwan's academic community.
Clarivate Analytics published 2020 Highly Cited Scholars Directory, which identifies highly regarded natural scientists and social scientists from around the world who are ranked in the top 1% of their peer groups in terms of the number of citations they receive, demonstrating their significant academic influence on their peers. Tunghai University's distinguished scholars are honored to be highly recognized in the global academic and research community.
According to Clarivate Analytics, a total of 6,167 researchers from more than 60 countries or regions were selected this year, and 2,493 people were selected for the cross-disciplinary category. Among the 12 Taiwanese scholars on the list, 3 are from National Taiwan University (NTU); these 12 scholars' research fields cover Material Science, Physics, Mathematics, Engineering, and Clinical Medicine, etc. Four of them entered the cross-disciplinary category, demonstrating the strong influence and versatility of the Taiwanese academia.

Professor Jo-Shu Chang (張嘉修) obtained his Doctoral degree from the University of California, Irvine in 1993 and has been involved in biochemical engineering for nearly 30 years. In recent years, he has focused more on microalgae biotechnology to reduce carbon release as well as to boost a circular and sustainable economy. He has brought in many world-class and high-end technologies that have been in actual application in the industries. He has been recognized as a highly cited scholar for two consecutive years. In addition, a cross-domain faculty from the College of Engineering is currently working on a three-year project to establish a teaching and research team for the "Smart and Sustainable Circular Economy," in which industry and academia collaborate to optimize the water quality of Tunghai Lake with smart and AI technology.
Professor Jo-Shu Chang (張嘉修) has published more than 510 SCI journal articles with nearly 25,000 citations with an h-index of 79 (Web of Science). Besides, he holds 50 patents and has received many important honors, such as AIMBE fellow, International Bio-programming fellow, IBA fellow, AFOB Executive Board fellow. In terms of awards, he is contracted as a Most Distinguished Research fellow, who has won MOST Outstanding Research Award (three times), TECO Award, Honorable Lecturer of Far Eastern Y.Z. Hsu Sciences and Technology, Distinguished Honor Award by JinDue Ho Foundation, Distinguished Professor Award by China Society of Engineers, Honorable Scholar Award by K.T. Li Foundation, Distinguished Awards for achievement by Taiwan Chemical Engineering Association, etc.He has also served as a member of the National Standard Setting Committee for the Chemical Industry of the Central Bureau of Standards, Ministry of Economic Affairs, Executive Yuan; the President of the Taiwan Society for Biochemical Engineering and Biotechnology; advisor to China Steel Corporation; and advisor to the Industrial Technology Research Institute.
Professor Wei-Hsin Chen (陳維新) obtained his Doctoral degree in Aeronautics and Astronautics from National Cheng Kung University in 1993. He has been involved in the energy field for nearly 30 years, specializing in green energy and fuel technologies such as biomass, hydrogen, clean energy (clean coal technology, pulverized coal injection technology, carbon dioxide capture and utilization, cogeneration systems, iron and steel refining, and wind power). Recently, he has been actively applying artificial intelligence (AI) and big data analytics to energy systems to build and optimize green and circular energy systems. His discoveries and inventions in biomass technology and research are potentially applicable to industries. He has also received many awards and honors, including the Ministry of Science and Technology Outstanding Research Award (twice), the K.T. Li Golden Quality Award, the K.T. Li Honorary Scholar, the China Society of Engineers Outstanding Engineering Professor Award, the Applied Energy Award (twice), and the Bioresource Technology Highly Cited Paper Award. He has also served as a member of the review committee for national energy projects for the Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST); a member of the preliminary review committee for the Most Outstanding Research Award for Energy; a member of the review committee for the Most Outstanding Research Award for Electrical Energy; a member of the review committee for the MOST Division of Engineering; and a member of the review committee for projects submitted to the Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI) and Nuclear Research Institute (NRI).
Prof. Chen has published about 300 SCI journal articles, which have been cited 9000 times and have an h-index of 53 (Web of Science).
