Qualified candidates are encouraged to apply for the programs, who in turn can not only experience the in-depth education in Taiwan but also connect with the Asian job market through the TEEP gateway. During the internship program, students with various backgrounds will have an opportunity to learn about Taiwanese culture, and have experience interacting with Taiwanese companies in terms of its development and international business operation. Crouching Tigers IIMBA NCKU, Tainan Taiwan Being one of the participated departments, the Institute of International Management (hereinafter referred to as “IIMBA”) in National Cheng Kung University proposed Crouching Tigers program to recruit promising young people from the emerging and developed countries to Taiwan. Candidates who come to Taiwan for the program will gain higher education learning experience provided by executives or managers from Taiwanese international enterprises. At the same time, the participated companies will interact and observe students through performances and reports students provided, and after the courses, top performing students chosen by the companies will be offered internship opportunities. Outside of the courses, there will also be field trips to the company offices/factories or cultural sites, from which students will have the opportunities to experience practical business operations and Taiwanese cultural atmosphere. Plan in detail The 2016 Crouching Tigers program intends to recruit 30 young people- including current students and recent graduates from all over the world. There will be 3 sessions this year, and 10 participants per each session. In addition, it is also open to local students or overseas students who are currently studying in Taiwan.
