“Through the COOPERATE Program, I was able to finish my Master’s thesis at National Sun Yat-sen University, Taiwan. I would say this experience is the highlight of my Master’s degree journey.”

“The COOPERATE grant did not only provide for my thesis needs but also gave me an opportunity to form meaningful professional connections with the professors in my host university. The professors whom I worked with invited me to be a research student in their university and I enjoyed that privilege under scholarship.”
