About

Kaohsiung is known as Taiwan’s Harbor Capital and is located on the island’s southwest coast, sitting at the intersection of the mountains and the sea. Both the downtown and major port have gone through recent revitalizations, and the city now boasts cultural and artistic venues, Taiwan’s biggest night market, and pleasant weather throughout the year. Our host institution, National Sun Yat-sen University (NSYSU), consistently ranks in the top ten universities in Taiwan. The university enrolls just over 10,000 students a year, split almost evenly among undergraduates and graduates. Students are able to take part in a variety of activities on and off the NSYSU campus, which is well connected to the city by public transit.
