Overview
To encourage the experts and scholars worldwide who are interested in Taiwan, cross-strait relations, mainland China, Asia Pacific, and Sinology to conduct research in Taiwan’s universities or research institutes and promote academic exchanges, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) of Republic of China (ROC) has set up the Taiwan Fellowship Program.

The fellowship recipients should be foreign professors, associate professors, assistant professors, and doctoral candidates of related departments of overseas universities, and research fellows of the same level in academic institutes abroad.
Number of recipients selected
In principle, 30 recipients are selected each year.
Benefits

1. An economy class roundtrip ticket flying the most direct route will be provided. Tickets will not be provided to recipients who are already in Taiwan.
2. Research stipends are granted in the beginning of each month in the following two categories:
(1) Professors, associate professors, research fellows, and associate research fellows: NT$60,000.

3. The minimum duration of scholarship is three months, and the maximum is one year.
4. Accident insurance of NT$ 1,000,000 is provided during the term of research in Taiwan. (This sum is also to cover the expenses incurred from the treatment of injuries.)
