The Center for Environmental Monitoring and Technology (CEMT), located at NCU, aims to actively encourage the research and development of environmental monitoring technologies, integrate research resources, and promote the outcomes of these efforts internationally. Complementary to those aims, CEMT explores opportunities for cooperation on regional environmental monitoring projects to strengthen Taiwan-International co-monitoring efforts, and share and exchange information.

CEMT was co-founded by the Environmental Protection Administration Executive Yuan (Taiwan) in 2016. CEMT assists the International Environmental Partnership (IEP), a Taiwan-U.S. collaborative project on the environment. Among other achievements, the IEP has established the Asia-Pacific Mercury Monitoring Network (APMMN), which relies on an international co-monitoring strategy and has itself built an APMMN environmental monitoring education and training platform to enhance the eco-technological exchange among the countries in East Asia, South Asia, and Southeast Asia, share monitoring technologies, and provide training to partners in Asia-Pacific regions for capacity building.
