Tai Hsiou-hsia, dean of the College of Humanities and Social Sciences at National Chiao Tung University, says that as of now, the MOE has clear schema by which to type colleges and universities. Instead, it's a free-for-all with every school establishing PhD programs. Because there's no baseline for the designation of types, there has been a trend towards what Tai calls "academic shuffling."
交通大學人文社會學院院長戴曉霞指出，目前教育部對於大學並沒有明顯的規劃與分類，各大學都「敢」開設博士班由於抓不出分類定位的基準線，因而有「學術游移」的傾向。
