  National Tsing Hua University (NTHU) is a national public research university
  in Hsinchu, Taiwan, originally founded in 1911 and re-established in Taiwan in
  1956. It is ranked #210 in the QS World University Rankings 2025 and is one of
  Taiwan's premier research institutions across science, engineering, humanities,
  and management. NTHU does not operate an official institution-wide developer
  portal, but its public developer footprint centers on the community-maintained
  NTHU Data API (NTHU-SA), a live FastAPI/OpenAPI service that aggregates public
  campus data such as courses, buses, dining, library spaces, announcements, and
  energy usage. Related open-source work lives across student and lab GitHub
  organizations.
