1. About the TaiwanICDF


The International Cooperation and Development Fund (TaiwanICDF) is dedicated to boosting
socio-economic development, enhancing human resources and promoting economic relations in a
range of developing partner countries. We also offer humanitarian assistance and provide aid in the
event of natural disasters or international refugee crises.
To carry out our mission, we offer a range of assistance that centers on four core operations: lending
and investment, technical cooperation, humanitarian assistance, and international education and
training. Our Fund is used to make direct or indirect investments and to finance lending operations.
Revenues generated by the Fund are used to support our bilateral or multilateral technical
cooperation projects, humanitarian assistance operations and education and training.
Every new project from the TaiwanICDF proceeds according to a rigorous project cycle and is
backed by mutual covenants signed in cooperation with relevant stakeholders. Our projects are
designed to address the strategic development goals of each of our partner countries, pay due
consideration to associated regional trends, and maximize results by employing the right
combination of capital and technical cooperation.
Ultimately, our work is tailor-made to the local needs of each partner country. Our assistance covers
a variety of contemporary development issues such as environmental protection, public health,
agriculture, education, and information and communications technology.
We are also acting to improve human resources and build institutional capacity at the TaiwanICDF
itself. We believe that as a stronger, more professional organization, we will be better placed to
advise decision-making bodies within our government. Efforts to improve our own organization
will also help us to deepen the coverage of our projects and transfer technological know-how to our
partners. We aspire to making the most effective use of manpower and resources, and replicating
and adapting successful experiences from one partner country to another.

2017 TaiwanICDF International Higher Education Scholarship Program

2. Overview of the International Higher Education


Scholarship Program
International education and training from the TaiwanICDF shares Taiwans own development
experiences with developing partner countries around the world. Our aim is to help these partner
countries cultivate and nurture a talented pool of human resources.
To achieve this objective, our International Education and Training Department performs a range of
interconnected operations. Our in-depth, professional workshops are dedicated to contemporary
trends in development, while our higher education scholarship program draws on expertise at
Taiwanese universities to strengthen know-how in critical disciplines. We also cooperate with a
number of international organizations on training projects.
Our International Higher Education Scholarship Program was initiated in 1998 when we joined
forces with a group of Taiwanese universities to offer scholarships for a number of
English-language courses, up to and including Ph.D. level.
The program enables talented young citizens to come to Taiwan to pursue their higher education
and follow course materials and learning objectives that are specifically designed to address key
development issues. The program provides full financial support for tuition and living expenses,
and having grown in scope over the years, now covers 35 courses from 21 universities 12
bachelor's, 21 master's and two Ph.D. programs. These courses focus on the development needs of
our partner countries by addressing issues such as tropical agriculture, aquatic sciences, business
administration, information technology, human resource development, medicine and public health,
or various fields of engineering. All of these disciplines are in high demand in our developing
partner countries. We aim to boost social development and economic growth by generating a pool
of quality human resources.

International Master of Business Administration (IMBA)

ABOUT THE PROGRAM


The International MBA (IMBA) program offered by National Chengchi University (NCCU) has
dual accreditation by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) and the
European Quality Improvement System (EQUIS), a key indicator of our quality resources in
business education.
The IMBA program is designed to develop qualified candidates to be leaders in the field of
international business, with a special focus on the Asia-Pacific region. With the continued growth
of Asias emerging economies and the expansion of firms on a global scale, the NCCU IMBA
offers the perfect venue for international candidates to learn about Asian economies.
The IMBA program requires a minimum of 42 credits to graduate. Required courses account for 24
credits, including Business Quantitative Methods, Corporate Social Responsibility and Ethics,
Financial Management, Leaders Forum, Leadership and Team Building, Accounting, Managerial
Economics, Management Information Systems, Marketing Management, and Strategic
Management. The elective courses fall under four areas of concentration: Entrepreneurship,
Finance, Management in Asia and Marketing. Students have the option of taking the required
number of courses to achieve a concentration or take courses across concentrations to graduate with
a General MBA.
The IMBA program provides an optimal international and multicultural learning environment by
maintaining balance between Taiwanese and international students admitted to the program. The
international students represent professionals from over 35 countries in 5 continents. They are
guided by our faculty base comprised of academics and industry experts in Taiwan and from
around the world.
The IMBA faculty come from three equally qualified pools of local and international talent. A third
of the instructors hail from faculty members of the College of Commerce at National Chengchi
University (CNCCU), most of whom have earned Ph.Ds from prestigious universities around the
world. Another third of the faculty represent renowned scholars from top overseas business schools
as visiting instructors and a final third of the faculty are comprised of industry senior executives
who have long standing real-world business experience.
The international aspect of each and every area of the IMBA, including the courses, student body,
and faculty, make this program truly unique. What further differentiates the IMBA from other MBA
programs are the featured courses that integrate our expertise in Asia provided under the
Management in Asia concentration. Aside from developing a global view in world business trends,
it is just as essential to gain an Asian perspective of business. Our program is the perfect conduit
for learning all about this growing region.
