Taiwan is known for its high-quality education in Asia. According to the QS World University Rankings 2023, Taiwan has 10 universities among the world’s top 500, including National Taiwan University, National Tsing Hua University, and National Cheng Kung University. Universities in Taiwan offer diverse academic programs, ranging from engineering, technology, business, languages, and healthcare to arts and humanities. Compared with some other developed countries, tuition fees in Taiwan are very reasonable. Scholarships and various forms of financial aid for international students help ease the financial burden and make it easier to pursue their dreams of studying there.

Dr. Pham Sy Long, Deputy Head of the Department of International Cooperation

Speaking at the event, Dr. Pham Sy Long, Deputy Head of the Department of International Cooperation, noted that universities in Taiwan offer ideal learning and working environments that attract many international faculty, staff and students. He expressed confidence that the information session would help students explore and learn about these universities, engage with them directly, and learn about the study opportunities, scholarships and financial aid programs that universities in Taiwan offer international students. Dr. Pham Sy Long also expressed confidence that the day’s information session would provide an opportunity for Vietnam and Taiwan to exchange ideas and learn more from each other’s experiences in education and in attracting international students.
