「生活藝術」為秉持實踐大學創辦人精神所開設的課程，採取講座形式進行，希望藉此培養學生對藝術的興趣，陶冶其人生。因應整體教育環境的改變，高雄校區自103學年度開始進行本課程改革，主要朝強化學生課程參與、深化課程討論、校園藝文氛圍營造三個面向進行，106學年度後更融入學生自主學習精神，讓學生建構自己的藝文參與學習歷程，使學習更為多元化、個人化。經多年的滾動式改革，此一正式課程和許多非正式課程活動進行鏈結，建構出屬於校區特有的文藝氣息，也為校區與藝文團體建立起橋梁，增進各項交流合作的可能性。此波改革雖有其成效，但也發現在合宜講者的邀請、課程管理與課業要求上仍有其困難，課程開設年級也有調整的必要，如能針對問題進一步改善，應更能臻至此課程開設的精神與設定的教育目標。

“Life Art” is a course offered in the spirit of the founder of Shihchien University. It is conducted in the form of lectures, hoping to cultivate students' interest in art and cultivate their lives. In response to changes in the overall educational environment, the Kaohsiung campus has implemented this curriculum reform since the 103 academic year, focusing on three aspects: strengthening student curriculum participation, deepening curriculum discussions, and creating a art atmosphere in the school. After the 106 academic year, it had more integrated into students' independent learning. The spirit allows students to construct their own art and literature to participate in the learning process, making learning more diversified and personal. After years of rolling reforms, this formal course and many informal course activities have been linked to create a unique cultural atmosphere of the campus, and also build a bridge between the campus and art and cultural groups, and enhance the possibility of various exchanges and cooperation. Although this wave of reforms has had its effects, it has also been found that there are still difficulties in the invitation of suitable speakers, course management and schoolwork requirements. The level of the course is also necessary to be adjusted. If the problems can be further improved, the course should be better. The spirit of the establishment and the educational goals set.
