In this era of globalization in industry and academics, the office of EECS International Graduate Programs strives to be committed to the campus internationalization at NCTU. To fulfill this role, the office is now integrating all the international graduate programs in Colleges of ECE & CS, and aims to offer a complete range of services for all graduate students from around the world.
We take pride in offering quality M.S. and Ph.D. degree programs in the areas of electrical engineering and computer science, and our mission is to educate international graduate students in these fields so that they are well equipped with the knowledge and ability to succeed in today's global job market. For every international student, we also provide comprehensive assistance and support in both academic concerns and personal matters. Acting as a liaison with other administrative and academic departments in the university, we hope to assist international students in successfully achieving their educational goals. If you wish to pursue higher education in electrical engineering and computer science and would like to explore Chinese language and cultures, the EECS International Graduate Programs at NCTU will be a perfect fit for you.

Requirements
- According to Article 5 of the “Regulations Regarding International Students Undertaking Studies in Taiwan” published by the Ministry of Education and the “Foreign Student Admission Procedure” of National Chiao Tung University (NCTU), only the students, who are not citizens of the Republic of China and do not possess the legal status of overseas Chinese, are eligible to apply as international students.
- International students who have earned or will earn a bachelor's degree at accredited universities in Taiwan or other countries are eligible to be considered for admission to the Master Programs offered by the Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) and the Computer Science (CS) Colleges at NCTU.
- A newly admitted graduate student may defer his/her enrollment for one semester with the permission of the director of the enrolling institute. The student must submit a request for deferred enrollment along with documents explaining the reasons for the deferral before he/she registers at NCTU. The request will only be approved if it is justified with compelling reasons.
- The official undergraduate transcript must be submitted upon enrollment for those whose undergraduate major are not electrical engineering, computer science or related field. The committee of EECS International Graduate Program reviews and evaluates whether the student has taken electrical engineering / computer science fundamental courses (minimum three) as undergraduate. If the student does not meet this criterion, the student must complete and pass the fundamental courses that are assigned by EECS IGP director, EECS IGP associate director and student advisor within three semesters after enrollment.
- Every student must take 2 courses or at least 4 credits of Chinese language courses (which can not be counted toward fulfillment of EECS International Graduate Program) before and during their study at NCTU. Students who pass Test of Chinese as a Foreign Language (TOCFL) or other Chinese language proficiency test can waive the Chinese language course requirements.
- The official diploma must be translated into either English or Chinese when the original one is not issued in either language
- One copy of official transcript (with grades of every semester and explanation of grading system)
- Translation of official transcript (if applicable)
- Two letters of recommendation
- Passport or other proof of Nationality
- Alien Resident Certificate - ARC (if any)
- Confidential Financial Statement
- TOEFL PBT 500 / CBT 173 / iBT 73, TOEIC 650 or IELTS 5.5 (academic) unless specified otherwise by some department/institutes.
