Taipei, Summer 2025 — National Taiwan University (NTU)’s International College, in collaboration with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) and the Taiwan Semiconductor Research Institute (TSRI), has launched the 2025 Taiwan–Europe Semiconductor Short-term Training Program: Design Trends and Technological Transformations in Semiconductor. The initiative is aimed to deepen European students’ understanding of Taiwan’s world-leading semiconductor industry, introduce NTU’s academic strengths, and foster long-term cooperation in research, technology, and talent cultivation between Taiwan and Europe.
The program attracted outstanding students from top universities in Poland, Italy, Slovakia, Romania, Lithuania, and the Czech Republic. During the first week, participants underwent intensive training at NTU, attending courses on cutting-edge semiconductor design technologies taught by distinguished faculty. The students also visited NTU’s cleanroom facilities for hands-on practice—combining theory and application in a uniquely immersive learning experience.
Following their coursework at NTU, the students continued their research and practical training at TSRI, gaining fresh insight into the operational dynamics of Taiwan’s semiconductor ecosystem. Beyond the classroom, the International College arranged cultural immersion activities-- campus tours, visits to NTU’s Museum Complex, and an excursion to the National Palace Museum-- through which the participants experienced Taiwan’s cultural richness and NTU’s vibrant academic environment.
Deputy Director-General Chu-En Lin of the European Affairs Department, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, attended the program’s opening ceremony and commended NTU’s bold efforts in advancing academic-industry collaboration and promoting global talent exchanges.
This initiative underscores NTU’s commitment to expanding international scientific cooperation and highlighting Taiwan’s role as a key player in the global semiconductor ecosystem—both as a hub of innovation and as a leader in nurturing future talent. Building on this success, NTU’s International College will continue to develop and expand academic partnerships with European institutions, setting new milestones in semiconductor research and education.
