This visit is aimed to promote and informed about education in Taiwan, especially the Taiwan higher education. On this occasion, TEC received a very warm welcome and enthusiasm from the deans and lecturers of UAA. The audience were curious about the procedure of applying for the 2024 Taiwan’s Ministry of Education (MoE) Scholarship which opened on February 1st next year. Many of them were interested in pursuing doctoral degrees in Taiwan as well as to encourage their students to study in Taiwan.

The information which was provided by TEC was not only about the scholarships offered by the Taiwan government and Taiwan university, but also about the Taiwan Experience Education Program (TEEP). TEEP is a program which allows the lecturers to experience in research and internship in Taiwan. Furthermore, the deans and lecturers of UAA also asked TEC regarding the possibility of building a connection with Taiwan universities and having research collaborations with the Taiwan universities.
