A national university in Taiwan was commissioned over the summer by the Ministry of Education, to launch an international exchange program allowing foreign students to enroll on short-term courses and take vocational internships.

The two-month Taiwan Experience Education Program, offered by the College of Management at National Sun Yat-sen University in the southern city of Kaohsiung, enabled foreign students to participate in teams consulting selected enterprises during the summer vacation and learn about the operations of Taiwanese companies.

The program also offered foreign students courses in Chinese language studies, as wells as opportunities to exchange work experience with Taiwanese counterparts and visit local economic and cultural sites, as a way of broadening their understanding of Taiwan.
