Research Grant for Foreign Scholars in Chinese Studies
分享到
In July 1989, the Center for Chinese Studies (CCS) implemented the Research Grant for Foreign Scholars in Chinese Studies program. In the 20 years since its inception, more than 300 foreign scholars from over 40 countries have received financial assistance to come to Taiwan to pursue their research. Due to the outstanding success of this program in promoting international scholarly exchange, from 2010 the Center was given the responsibility for administering the ROC Ministry of Foreign Affairs Taiwan Fellowship.
Although there are some differences between the two programs in terms of application deadlines and procedures (for more details please follow the links below), both programs welcome applications from foreign scholars of the humanities and social sciences (including professors, associate professors, assistant professors and Ph.D. candidates) who wish to carry out research in Taiwan for periods between three months and one year.
