院成立於民國44年，歷經50餘年的銳意發展，目前設有國文、英文、歷史、地理、臺文等5個學系、翻譯和臺灣史2個獨立所，以及全球華人寫作中心和國際臺灣學研究中心。除臺史所僅設碩士班，其餘6個系所均設有碩、博士班；目前專兼任教師近250人，學生約2500餘人。

本院早期以培養優秀中學國文、英文、歷史和地理教師為鵠的，臺灣中學語文和史地教育的實踐與成功，本院提供不可磨滅的貢獻。近年來，本院隨師範體系轉型而調整發展方向，除維持中學師資培育的優勢外，也積極朝理論研究和實務操作等面向前進。目前，本院各系所師培生的教師檢定通過率平均在95%以上；非師培生在文化、傳播、文學、應用史學及環境災害、地理資訊系統等領域發展，也已卓然有成。

本院各系所教師的研究能量極為豐富，參與國內外學術活動相當活躍。根據論文數量、引用次數等指標所作的學術力評比，本院居人文領域全國第2名。各系所之間，無論是教師的教學與研究，或學生的生活與學習，都能相輔相成、榮辱與共，彼此渾然一體，足堪「為師、為範」而無愧。

    Detection in a Complex Age Collective Control in CSI: New York
    (英語學系, 2012-03-??) Samantha Walton
    This article examines the rejection of the heroic individual detective figure in the popular forensic crime solving drama CSI: NY. It explores how this archetypal modern figure is replaced by an integrated network of technologies and human investigators. By paying close attention to the postmodern conditions of the information economy and the global political context of the first decade of the twenty-first century—specifically, the U.S. legal response to the threat of networked terrorism—the article asserts that the demise of the individual detective is inspired by the recognition of the limited capacities of individuals to respond to complex threat. In particular, the alternative vision to the individual detective developed by CSI: NY is shaped by changing relations between state and individual in the wake of the 2001 USA PATRIOT Act. Asserting the essentially conservative nature of CSI: NY’s collective detective, the article considers how mass fears of chaos and complex crime are consoled through a team of “everyman” investigators, who draw their moral authority from the collective social body, and who justify their access to and exploitation of comprehensive databases through their selfless commitment to protecting the security of the collective. The postmodern and posthuman economic and theoretical basis of this shift is explicated, as is the series’ reliance upon the technologies and information paradigm of cybernetics, in order to account for CSI: NY’s contribution to the long tradition of detection, and to assert how thoroughly this popular narrative of consolation is implicated in the economic and scientific contexts and the political concerns of the first decade of the twenty-first century.
