Academic career After receiving his doctorate, Wu joined the faculty at National Taiwan Normal University, where he was the chairman of the department of information and computer education from 1999 to 2001.

During his deanship at NTNU, he has put through many reforms, including abolishing the rule of expelling students who fail more than half of the registered courses. Wu once said, “students should be responsible for their own education, while we should give them a second chance instead of depriving them of their right to education with this rule.”
