The “Taiwan Scholarships for Ukrainian Students and Scholars” were designed to help Ukrainian students and researchers come to Taiwan for an internship or a short-term visit, the academy said, adding that it covers a round-trip flight, accommodation and an allowance. Separately yesterday, Tunghai University in central Taiwan said that it would accommodate 18 Ukrainian students to show its support for the country amid Russia’s invasion. The university said it had originally planned to support 10 Ukrainian students to study and live in Taiwan for four years, using a NT$16 million donation that it had received from a local foundation. The other students should receive Mandarin training before enrolling in departments such as foreign languages, finance and business administration, it added. The 18 students are in Warsaw and could arrive in Taiwan by the end of this month, it said.
