MCUT Research Internship Program 

The MCUT Research Internship Program invites outstanding students from partner universities abroad to Taiwan for a short-term research internship (ranging from 3 to 6 months) at various university-level research centers at MCUT. This program aims to provide students with an in-depth understanding of MCUT's academic environment, with the goal of enhancing the university's research capabilities and increasing the number of international students.
