TAIPEI TECH will share about how its methods of educating students have helped them become top entrepreneurs. Currently, ten out of a hundred founders, board directors or CEOs of listed stock companies in Taiwan are TAIPEI TECH alumni. TAIPEI TECH's curriculum provides practical training that caters to the needs of Taiwan's industries. Students also benefit from a mandatory internship programme that facilitates the integration of theory and practice. They are encouraged to participate in competitions to gain valuable experience and improve their ideas.
