The University of Lagos (UNILAG) has announced the launch of the Taiwan Scholarship Programme, offering students the opportunity to further their education in Taiwan’s prestigious institutions. The scholarship, which is aimed at fostering academic collaboration and cultural exchange, provides full and partial funding for Nigerian students interested in pursuing undergraduate and postgraduate studies in various disciplines.
According to UNILAG, the Taiwan Scholarship Programme will cover tuition fees, accommodation, and living expenses for selected students, enabling them to study in world-class universities without financial burdens. The initiative is expected to open doors for academic excellence and career advancement, particularly for students seeking high-quality education in science, technology, engineering, and other critical fields.
Officials from UNILAG have encouraged eligible students to take advantage of the scholarship, emphasizing that the program aligns with the university’s goal of promoting international education and global opportunities for its students. The application process will involve academic evaluations, interviews, and a selection process based on merit and academic performance.
The Taiwan Scholarship Programme has been described as a strategic effort to strengthen educational ties between Nigeria and Taiwan, providing students with exposure to advanced learning environments and research facilities. Students who benefit from the program are expected to return with enhanced skills and knowledge that will contribute to national development.
As the scholarship application process begins, interested students have been urged to visit the university’s official portal for detailed guidelines on eligibility and submission requirements. The initiative reflects the growing importance of international scholarships in expanding educational opportunities for Nigerian students and positioning them for global competitiveness.
