Every year ISU holds two graduation ceremonies conducted in Chinese and English, respectively. This year, the alumna Hsuan-Jung Chiu, who took two gold medals at the 2017 Busan International Artisan Festival, and Yoshihito Okinaga, President of Teikyo University, Japan, were invited to give speeches as an encouragement to graduands. President Okinaga indicated that this was the first graduation ceremony he has ever attended in Taiwan.
