Support for Disadvantaged Students through Work-Study and Personal Development Programs
In addition to financial aid and fee waivers, NCKU also offers priority work-study opportunities for students with disabilities and those from economically disadvantaged families. These opportunities help students cultivate independence, gain practical experience, and improve their financial situation during their studies, thereby laying a foundation for both academic and career development. At the same time, NCKU encourages students to develop diverse skills beyond academics. For example, the NCKU Backpacker Over-the-Wall Program subsidizes students from low-income families to design and propose their own travel plans for overseas backpacking trips. Through this experience, students enhance cross-cultural communication and self-management abilities, thereby strengthening their future competitiveness. Through these comprehensive support measures, NCKU continues to take concrete actions in response to SDG 1 (No Poverty), assisting students from economically disadvantaged families in pursuing their educational dreams with confidence and moving toward success.
