ADU Students Intern at National Chin-Yi University of Technology
As part of Abu Dhabi University’s newly launched International Internship Program, a group of 3 engineering students completed a transformative internship at National Chin-Yi University of Technology (NCUT) in Taichung, Taiwan—an experience that marked a major step in expanding ADU’s global academic partnerships and experiential learning opportunities.
Held over the summer of 2025, this immersive program offered students direct exposure to Taiwan’s innovation-driven academic and industrial landscape. Interns collaborated with NCUT faculty and students on engineering projects that bridged classroom theory and real-world applications, while also taking part in cultural activities that deepened their understanding of East Asian society and values.
The program featured:
- Technical workshops and lab-based training led by NCUT’s engineering faculty
- Project-based learning focused on emerging technologies and smart manufacturing
- Peer-to-peer collaboration with Taiwanese students and interdisciplinary exchange
- Campus immersion and academic engagement in an internationally ranked university
- Cultural visits around Taichung and central Taiwan, offering insights into local history, industry, and innovation
- Social experiences that promoted cross-cultural understanding and lifelong connections
This hands-on international internship not only enhanced the students’ technical and academic development but also cultivated resilience, adaptability, and a global mindset—qualities essential for leadership in the modern workforce. Through this initiative, ADU continues to empower its students to thrive beyond borders.
