Working hours for each intern can be very different, which is negotiable between students, mentors and organizations within reasonable limits. However, we request that you have to work at least 8 hours per week.
If you hope to extend your internship, it is negotiable with the mentors and organizations. Moreover, if the student is offered an opportunity to stay on board after the completion of the 12(-16)weeks, keep in mind this will be beyond the scope of NTU Mentorship Program. In the event of an extension, please ensure that you will be qualified to work based on your identity and validity of your work permit.
OIA will provide off-campus internship group insurance (Specified by the Ministry of Education) coverage for every student during the internship period. Please refer to the link for more information.

The answer to this question may vary depending on whether you work full-time or part-time. Please consult this with your mentor once selected for the program, as many companies might have different policies.
Some organizations operate outside of Taipei. In this case, either an all-remote or hybrid working set-up is negotiable before the internship officially starts. However, the final decision will still be left to the organizations' discretion.
Under each mentor’s page, it is stated whether or not accommodation is offered. However, if the internship site is not in the Greater Taipei Area, NTU OIA will provide students with a set allowance for accommodation, with accommodation recommended by the host organization.
The Greater Taipei Area includes Taipei and New Taipei City.
