Our International Higher Education Scholarship Program was initiated in 1998 when we joined forces with a group of Taiwanese universities to offer scholarships for a number of English-language courses, up to and including Ph.D. level. To expand the scope of the scholarship, from 2014 we are providing a further range of bachelor’s programs taught in Mandarin.

The program enables talented young citizens to come to Taiwan to pursue their higher education and follow course materials and learning objectives that are specifically designed to address key development issues. The program provides full financial support for tuition and living expenses, and having grown in scope over the years, now covers 35 courses from 21 universities — 11 bachelor's, 21 master's and three Ph.D. programs. These courses focus on the development needs of our partner countries by addressing issues such as tropical agriculture, aquatic sciences, business administration, information technology, human resource development, medicine and public health, or various fields of engineering. All of these disciplines are in high demand in our developing partner countries. We aim to boost social development and economic growth by generating a pool of quality human resources.

Each year we provide scholarships to around 175 new students.
