Employees Structure
Centered on advanced faculty qualifications, staff training, and talent retention, this section presents Minghsin University of Science and Technology's overall human resources development plan.
Faculty Structure
To raise the university's faculty standards and research capabilities, priority is given to recruiting advanced faculty with doctoral degrees and industry experience, while actively encouraging faculty to pursue further degrees and promotions. The proportion of advanced faculty rose from 89.0% in the 2022 academic year to 93.2% in the 2024 academic year, with an overall student-teacher ratio of 20.7:1. In the 2024 academic year, there were 207 full-time faculty members, of whom 13 were foreign faculty, accounting for 6.28%. The university also promotes in-depth service and industry-academia collaboration between faculty and key partner enterprises, including the Formosa Plastics Group, helping faculty better understand and integrate with industry R&D while providing industry assistance and services.

Staff Overview
To improve the quality of administrative services, Minghsin University of Science and Technology plans training programs for staff and periodically holds staff education and training courses to encourage continuous improvement at work. To encourage lifelong learning and raise the quality of work, the university has also established the "Regulations on In-Service Further Education and Training for Staff." Full-time staff members with at least two years of service, based on operational needs or the university's overall human resources planning, and provided their unit's overall work is not affected, may receive subsidies to pursue further degrees, attend short-term training, or obtain professional certifications, which serve as references for promotion and performance evaluation.

Personnel Turnover
Over the past three academic years, the university's overall faculty and staff turnover rate, classified by regular employees and new employees (with less than one year of service), shows that turnover among regular male employees trended upward from the 2022 to 2024 academic years (from 1 to 4 people), while turnover among regular female employees did not increase, mainly because the university's salary structure is comparatively fixed relative to private enterprises. When departures are analyzed by role, staff turnover rates are lower than faculty turnover rates for both men and women, mainly because faculty salaries are higher and faculty can pursue promotion based on individual career planning, resulting in more turnover; staff salaries and promotions require an available position, but their jobs are more stable, resulting in lower turnover. When departures are analyzed by age group, the turnover rate is higher among male faculty aged 31–50, while the turnover rate among faculty and staff aged 60 and above is high mainly due to retirement upon reaching retirement age.
