Overview of the International Higher Education Scholarship Program Overview of the International Higher Education Scholarship Program International education and training has always been one of the core operations among the TaiwanICDF’s many functions. Human resource development programs play a vital role in assisting partner countries achieve sustainable development, and education is one of the crucial mechanisms in training workforces in developing countries. When the TaiwanICDF implements any cooperation project, it pays attention to education and training for program sustainability. The TaiwanICDF does this to ensure that its work will result in tangible long-term benefits and help as many people as possible. The TaiwanICDF’s early human resource training programs consisted primarily of short- term workshops with specialized topics. These workshops focused on the most relevant and advantageous elements of Taiwan’s development, transmitting Taiwan’s successful experiences to government officials and professionals of Taiwan’s diplomatic allies. The plan to promote the TaiwanICDF Scholarship Program was first started with the intent to train agricultural professionals. This was later extended to other research fields to diversify the overall scholarship program. As of 2020, the TaiwanICDF has been cooperating with 21 universities in 35 programs of study as follows: Since Title University 1998 Master Program in Tropical National Pingtung University of Science Agriculture and Technology (NPUST) 2001 Ph.D. Program in Tropical National Pingtung University of Science Agriculture and Technology (NPUST) International Master of Business National Chengchi University (NCCU) Administration (IMBA) 2003 Master’s Program in International National Yang-Ming University Health (NYMU) Graduate Institute of International National Taiwan Normal University Human Resource Development (NTNU) (IHRD) International Master Program in National Taiwan Ocean University Aquaculture Technology and (NTOU) Management International Master of Business National Tsing Hua University (NTHU) Administration in Technology Management 2004 International Master Program for National Central University (NCU) Environment Sustainable Development International Master Program in National Tsing Hua University (NTHU) Information Systems and Applications 2005 International Master Program in Kun Shan University (KSU) Mechanical Engineering 2006 International Master's Program in National Sun Yat-sen University Electric Power Engineering (NSYSU) (IMEPE) International Master's Program in Yuan Ze University (YZU) Industrial Engineering and Management Ph.
