Individual internships (available to foreign interns only): The TTT Program Office has arranged individual internship positions at various host institutes all across Taiwan, including government agencies, nonprofit organizations, and private companies. Early commencement or extension of internship is available with the approval of assigned host institute. Interns are required to initiate contact with their hosts for the details if they would like to start earlier or extend their internships. MOST, however, does not provide extra subsidies for their extra stay in Taiwan.
  2. Special Group Research Projects (available to foreign and domestic interns, job code: 4xxx.xx): Special Group Research Projects are designed for in-depth research into major issues in Taiwan, such as future technology, Taiwan’s international participation, etc. Each group project will consist of foreign interns teamed with domestic interns in groups of 4~8 people.


C. Restriction for Foreign Non-students
To avoid complications with work permits and labor regulations, there will be a restriction on the type of internships available to foreign non-students. If you are not a Taiwanese national, and you are not a student, you may only apply for government agencies from the list of individual internships.
D. Application Procedures
All foreign and domestic candidates must complete and submit an online application form, statement of purpose, and the following required documents between Jan 7th 2016 and Feb 2nd 2016(Taiwan time). All applications and documentations must be submitted through our online application system.Incomplete and late applications will not be processed.
Required documents:
  1. Identification document: Foreign interns please submit a clear copy of your passport data page (showing name, passport number, expiration date); if you do not have a passport, please submit another photo ID such as a national ID card or driver’s license. Domestic interns please submit front and back copies of your ROC ID card.
  2. Full and latest copy of an academic transcript.(from the first semester to the current one.)
  3. Current resume.
  4. For students: Clear, front and back copies of a current student ID.
  5. A clear photo within 3 months.(don’t upload a group photo.)
  6. Optional: copies of any awards, achievements, academic certificates, letters of recommendation, a copy of English language proficiency (required for domestic candidates), or a copy of Chinese language proficiency (for foreign candidates); please combine all files into ONE file to upload.
E. Review Process
Foreign applications will be assigned to the applicant’s nearest ROC embassy, consulate, or representative office for initial screening; domestic applications will be assigned to the TTT Program Office in Taipei. All qualified applications will then be forwarded to host institutes for a review process. Based on applicants’ qualifications, job skill requirements, and other review factors, the host institutes will decide which applicants they wish to accept. All decisions made by the hosts are final. In addition, to enable more overseas Taiwanese youths to experience Taiwan and its culture, applicants who have never participated in TTT are the priority in the host institutes’ selection process.
Each applicant may select up to three internships in order of preference (first choice, second choice, etc). A candidate who has been simultaneously selected by two or more host institutes will be assigned to the institute of his/her highest preference. For instance, if a candidate has been accepted by her first-choice and third-choice institutes, she will be assigned to the first-choice institute. Applicants shall also indicate in the application forms if they have first to third-degree relatives working in their selected host institutes to prevent a conflict of interest.
To provide fair opportunity to new participants, the proportion of returning TTT participants will not exceed one-third of all interns accepted into the program. Successful candidates will be notified by Mar 24th2016, and candidates must confirm acceptance by Apr 7th 2016 (Taiwan time). Alternate (waitlisted) candidates will be selected and notified by Apr 22nd 2016 if deemed necessary.
