The objective of this program is to develop basic and advanced communication skills for the learners whose native language is not Chinese. In 2013, we will combine the internship in the specific fields at NCU. You will earn 3 credits with a certificate in this program and the curriculum includes listening, speaking, reading, and writing.

NCU also arrange native assistant partners as the life guide during their stay in Taiwan. The program includes field trips for the participants to learn about Taiwanese culture and offers opportunities to practice what they learn in the real world.
