我是陳毅展，中原大學機械工程學系的學生。我認為學習是一場終其一生的成長與探索之旅，而我也始終不斷挑戰自我。其中印象深刻、具影響力的旅程，便是參與GCSP計畫。

參與GCSP計畫的這段時間，對我而言更像是一場打開眼界的旅程。這個計畫涵蓋了五個面向──創新創業、多元文化、社會意識、跨學科整合與研究創造力──每一項對我來說都是新的挑戰與探索。相較於一般工程學科主要專注在技術與理論，這些能力更強調人與人之間的連結、社會議題的關注、以及整合多元知識的能力。我也透過一次次的嘗試、努力與跨出舒適圈，一步步拓展視野、培養能真正應對未來挑戰的能力。

感謝GCSP計畫為我帶來如此豐沛的學習養分，也由衷感謝一路上有師長的教導、朋友的陪伴，以及夥伴們的鼎力相助。這段旅程不僅讓我看見更廣闊的世界，也讓我更加認識自己。我體會到，所謂的跨領域，並不是離開原本的專業，而是在原有的專業基礎上，學會如何伸出手與他人連結、對話與合作。未來我將持續帶著這段旅程所累積的養分，用自己的力量幫助他人。

I am I-CHAN CHEN, a student majoring in Mechanical Engineering at Chung Yuan Christian University. To me, learning is a lifelong journey of growth and exploration—and throughout this journey, I have constantly challenged myself. One of the most memorable and transformative experiences was my participation in the GCSP (Grand Challenge Scholars Program).

Taking part in GCSP was like embarking on a journey that broadened my horizons. The program encompasses five core competencies—innovation and entrepreneurship, multicultural, social consciousness, multidisciplinary, and talent competency. Each of these presented new challenges and opportunities for exploration. Unlike traditional engineering education, which often focuses primarily on technical knowledge and theory, GCSP emphasized human connections, societal issues, and the ability to integrate diverse knowledge. Through repeated trials, efforts, and stepping outside my comfort zone, I gradually expanded my perspective and developed the skills needed to face the challenges of the future.

I am truly grateful to the GCSP program for providing such rich learning opportunities. I also sincerely thank the professors who guided me, the friends who accompanied me, and the teammates who supported me. This journey has not only opened my eyes to a broader world but also deepened my understanding of myself. I came to realize that interdisciplinarity doesn’t mean abandoning one’s field of expertise—it means learning how to extend a hand to connect, communicate, and collaborate with others from different domains. In the future, I will continue carrying the insights and strength I’ve gained from this experience and use what I’ve learned to make a meaningful difference in the lives of others.
