The Political Warfare College (Chinese: 政治作戰學校), also known as Fu Hsing Kang College (復興崗, "Renaissance Hill"), is a military academy in Beitou District, Taipei, Taiwan. During the Japanese occupation period, this location was the racetrack of Beitou; after Chiang Ching-kuo's inspection, on July 15, 1951, it became the campus of the formerly known "Political Worker Cadres School".
After graduating from the college and their commissioning as second lieutenants or ensigns, they serve as platoon leader, counselor, political affairs officer, and psychology officer in the Republic of China Armed Forces. As political warfare officers, they are partly responsible for implementation of state political agenda on national defense matters and thus serve to provide moral, political, and cultural support. There are two graduates who have been promoted to generals. They are Yang Tingyun (Army) in the 1st year graduate and Chen Guoxiang (Marine Corps) in the 19th year graduate.
