Higher education in Taiwan has been developed rapidly. However, with the economic and political transitions in Taiwan in recent years, some social problems arise, such as lowering moral values, strong utilitarianism, estranged human relationship, etc. While utilitarianism prevails in the domain of education, a hot discussion about 'holistic education' was raised in Taiwan after the middle period of 1990s. In 1998, in the vision of education in the 21st century, Taiwan put forward 'holistic education, warm campus, lifelong learning' as the main axis of education. Based on the analyses of holistic education theory and practice in Taiwan, with the sample of Chung Yuan Christian University, we can draw some conclusions by using various study methods, such as documentations, questionnaires, interviews, and comparative analysis. Korean universities also need to carry out the practice through the research on holistic education.
