International education and training from the TaiwanICDF share Taiwan’s own development experiences with developing partner countries around the world. Their aim is to help these partner countries cultivate and nurture a talented pool of human resources.
Their International Higher Education Scholarship Program was initiated in 1998 when they 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.
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 3 Ph.D. programs. These courses focus on the development needs of the 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 the developing partner countries. TaiwanICDF aims to boost social development and economic growth by generating a pool of quality human resources.
