NTNU leads for international student numbersBy Yang Mien-chieh and Jonathan Chin / Staff reporter, with staff writerNational Taiwan Normal University (NTNU) reported that international students accounted for 13.39 percent of its student body last year, making the college Taiwan’s most international public university for the second consecutive year. NTNU has increased the share of international students in the student body faster than any other public university in Taiwan between 2010 and last year, the school said in a statement yesterday. The university’s use of the Higher Education SPROUT Project’s provision for internationalizing higher education is a driver of its growth in its international student body, it said. NTNU has 1,942 international students from 73 countries and territories across the world, with Malaysia, Vietnam, Myanmar, Indonesia, Japan, Hong Kong and Macau supplying the largest groups, it said. A mature bilingual educational environment is key to the university’s success in continually growing its international student population, offering six bachelor’s degree-level and 62 doctoral and master-level classes in the English language, it said.
