Wenzao Ursuline University of Languages is dedicated to nurturing interdisciplinary talents with global perspectives, international concern, and mobility. The university actively encourages students to participate in overseas exchange programs, and its efforts have been recognized again! The Ministry of Education’s (MOE) 2024 Overseas Exchange Student Financial Assistance grant list has announced that Wenzao will receive the highest national subsidy of 2.88 million NTD due to its excellent internationalization achievements. This is the second time in three years that Wenzao received the highest national subsidy from this program, topping the ranking among private universities of technology for three consecutive years.
To help financially disadvantaged students pursue their dreams and study abroad, the university nominated six students for the MOE’s Study Abroad Program for Disadvantaged Students this year. All six students were approved, receiving a total subsidy of 2.38 million NTD, the highest among universities nationwide. One of the students receiving the subsidy was awarded the highest individual subsidy this year. The award-winning students expressed their gratitude to Wenzao for providing the opportunity to study abroad. Especially through the subsidy from MOE, their financial burden will be significantly reduced, and they will be able to focus on their academic studies.
Wenzao Ursuline University of Languages is committed to becoming an international platform for global mobility, equipping students with the skills needed for the global job market.
