How to Intern Abroad in Taiwan
Overview
Prepare for an Internship
Set goals
A little clarity goes a long way. Before committing to a program, think about what you’d like this internship to mean for your future.
- Skill building. Think about the skills you want to grow, like improving your Mandarin, understanding how a global company operates, or gaining hands-on experience in your field.
- Work style. Consider whether you thrive in a fast-paced corporate setting or a more relaxed, startup-style environment. Knowing your preferences can help you find the right fit.
- Personal growth. You might want to explore local culture, challenge yourself to live more independently, or simply see what it's like to live and work in a new country.
Understand the benefits
Every internship has its pros. In Taiwan, you’ll get a mix of career-building experience, cultural exposure, and everyday perks that make it all the more rewarding.
- Innovation access. Get hands-on in industries shaping the future, like semiconductors, biotech, and green tech, where Taiwan plays a key global role.
- Language in action. Strengthen your Mandarin through real-world interactions, from workplace collaboration to navigating everyday life.
- Everyday affordability. Live well on a budget thanks to Taiwan’s efficient public transit, affordable housing, and iconic night market eats.
Things to know
Taiwan is a gem, and being prepared helps you enjoy the experience without surprises.
- Language - Mandarin is the main language in most workplaces. Even basic skills can help you connect with coworkers and navigate daily life.
- Visas - Unpaid internships under 90 days usually don’t need a visa, but paid or longer programs require a work visa. Plan with your host early.
- Etiquette - Professionalism is key. Bring bilingual business cards, and be ready for relationship-building over meals before formal work kicks off.
- Commute - Public transportation is fast, clean, and affordable. Living outside city centers is totally doable thanks to Taiwan’s metro and train systems.
- Money - Taiwan is cash-friendly. Have local currency on hand, especially for night markets or small shops that don’t take cards.
Locations
Choose a Location
The cities in Taiwan each offer something different for interns. Whether you're into tech, manufacturing, or local culture, there's a spot that fits.
Taipei
If you're aiming for a fast-paced, career-driven environment, Taipei is where you’ll want to be. As the capital, it’s the epicenter of finance, government, and tech, with reliable public transit and endless after-work food options.
Taichung
Taichung hits a sweet spot. It’s not too big, not too small, and has a strong industrial base paired with a laid-back feel. Interns can explore opportunities in manufacturing while enjoying cafes, art spaces, and sunny weather.
Kaohsiung
In Kaohsiung, business meets the ocean breeze. This port city is big on international trade and heavy industry, but also invests in parks, museums, and waterfront living. It’s a great pick if you want room to breathe while you work.
Fields
Choose a Field
Internships in Taiwan are especially strong in STEM and business, but there’s a surprising variety to choose from.
Technology
Electronics and semiconductors are the backbone of Taiwan’s economy. Interning here means access to advanced labs, innovative design work, and hands-on experience in one of the world’s tech powerhouses.
Business
From finance to global trade, Taiwan is home to regional HQs and competitive business environments. Interns can learn how Asian markets operate while navigating a business culture that values personal connection and strong etiquette.
Law
Legal internships in Taiwan offer exposure to international business practices, intellectual property rights, and trade regulations in an Asian context. These roles are competitive and often require Mandarin, but they provide hands-on experience in cross-border legal systems and regional policy work.

My Wonderful Experience With Sage Corps!
September 19, 2026by: Marcus Sponsler - United StatesI had such a great experience with Sage Corps this summer in Amsterdam. Going into the program, I was really excited about the opportunity to intern abroad, but I honestly ended up getting so much more out of the experience than I expected. I was able to work with a startup in Amsterdam and gain real experience in sales, business development, marketing, and working in an international environment. I learned a ton professionally, but I also grew a lot personally. Living in a new country for two months definitely pushed me outside of my comfort zone at times, and I feel like I came home much more confident, independent, and open-minded because of it. One of my favorite parts of Sage Corps was also the people. I met so many great people from different schools and backgrounds, made some really close friends, and loved having a group of people to experience Amsterdam with. The events Sage Corps put together were always fun, and it was also really nice having people from the program in Amsterdam who were there to support us throughout the summer. I’m extremely grateful that I had the opportunity to be a part of Sage Corps. It gave me an amazing internship experience, great friendships, and memories from Amsterdam that I’ll honestly never forget. I would definitely recommend the program to anyone who wants to gain meaningful work experience while also pushing themselves to try something new and experience living abroad.

An amazing euro summer
September 11, 2026by: Ali Eslich - United StatesMy summer in Spain with SageCorps was truly a dream come true. Getting to live in Europe for a summer (my dream) and gain valuable professional experience with a local travel company, I never imagined it would be possible. I got the opportunity to work for a travel company in their partner experience and brand design department while soaking up summer in Barcelona. Throughout the entire summer, the SageCorps team made sure we felt supported and got the most out of our time abroad. They planned several group activities that allowed our cohort to explore Barcelona and experience all the excitement the city has to offer. My favorite was our day trip to Sitges, a beautiful beach town just outside the city. I will forever be grateful for this experience!


An unforgettable summer in Barcelona
September 09, 2026by: Lilliana Miranda - United StatesMy Sage Corps experience in Barcelona was one of the most meaningful experiences of my college career. The program gave me the opportunity to live and work abroad while gaining hands-on experience at a startup, where I worked on sales, business development, outreach, research, content creation, and marketing projects. I appreciated that I was given real responsibilities and the opportunity to explore different areas of the company, which helped me better understand my professional strengths and interests. Sage Corps also did a great job creating opportunities for us to experience Barcelona beyond our internships. Our City Managers, Pamela and Mikel, were incredibly kind, welcoming, and helpful throughout the program. They gave us great recommendations, made the scheduled events fun, and most importantly made me feel safe while living abroad. They organized a variety of activities and excursions for our cohort throughout the program, including visits to Mirador Torre Glòries, Park Güell, and a day trip to Sitges, just to name a few. These experiences gave us the chance to explore more of Barcelona, learn about the culture, and make memories together outside of work. Living abroad challenged me to become more independent, adaptable, and confident. I returned home with new professional skills, meaningful friendships, unforgettable memories, and a clearer sense of what I want from my future career. I would absolutely recommend Sage Corps to students who want international work experience while also immersing themselves in a new culture.



The Best Intern Abroad Experience
September 09, 2026by: Melia Piloske - United StatesMy experience with Sage Corps was one of the most rewarding experiences I’ve had in college. I interned in Madrid, Spain, as a Business Development and Sales Intern, where I worked on customer outreach, sales, market research, social media, and client relationships. One of the biggest things I gained was learning how to adapt to a new culture. At first, I struggled with the different communication styles in Spain, but over time I became more comfortable and learned how important it is to be open-minded and adaptable. I also loved the experiences outside of my internship, especially the Toledo trip, group dinners, and Bernabeu Tour. Getting to explore Spain while meeting other students made the experience even more memorable. I would highly recommend Sage Corps because it gives you the chance to gain real professional experience while immersing yourself in another culture. It pushed me outside of my comfort zone and helped me grow both personally and professionally.


Internship in Taipei, Taiwan
August 26, 2026by: Madeline Santoso - United StatesI spent 2 months abroad in Taipei, Taiwan through AIP, and it was a really positive experience! I had some issues with my original internship placement, but my team was incredibly responsive! I really appreciate Jeff, Roro, and Nisha’s support and help throughout the process. With their help and flexibility, I was placed with another company very quickly. The transition process was fast and smooth, and I couldn't be more happy with my internship. Moreover, my living accommodations through AIP were excellent. I was close to transportation and the neighborhood was very peaceful. I'm extremely grateful to the AIP team for their help.

My time in Taiwan with Asia Internship Program!
August 07, 2026by: Mal Carter - United StatesMy experience with Asia Internship Program was amazing from start to finish. I had very specific requirements for my internship, including finding an unpaid position that was longer than 8 weeks and focused on nonprofit or legal work rather than English teaching. While the placement process took some time, Jeff Oo was incredibly professional and reassuring throughout the process. He was honest about updates, never gave false hope, and made sure he was finding opportunities that were truly the right fit for me rather than rushing the process. Once I arrived in Taiwan, Nisha Shahi and Roro Lee were also incredibly supportive. Nisha helped arrange my transportation to and from the airport, answered my questions quickly when I was settling into my accommodation, and regularly checked in to make sure I was doing well. Their support made moving to a new country feel much less overwhelming. The internship itself exceeded my expectations, and I felt welcomed and comfortable as a queer Black student. I’m incredibly grateful for the care, professionalism, and effort the AIP team put into making this experience successful. I would highly recommend Asia Internship Program to any student looking for an international internship experience!


AIP TAIWAN
July 21, 2026by: Le ying Aw Yang - SingaporeMy internship experience in Taiwan was a very fulfilling one. Having the chance to work with local colleagues on various projects gave me a different perspective that extended far beyond what I was used to in Singapore. There is a difference between visiting a country as a tourist and actually living and working there. AIP provided me with the safety net and opportunity to navigate an international workplace without feeling completely on my own. I'm very grateful for the experience and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a similar experience.
NTU x AIP
July 17, 2026by: Siew Yin Tay - SingaporeMy internship experience in Taiwan through AIP was an incredible one. From the very beginning, the AIP team made the entire process smooth by guiding us through every step of the pre-departure preparations, including visa applications and other essential arrangements. Throughout the internship, they regularly checked in on us to make sure we were settling in well. A special thank you to Nisha and Roro for always being so approachable, supportive, and helpful — they really made living abroad feel much less daunting. What I appreciated most was that AIP went beyond simply arranging an internship. They organized meetups for us to get to know other interns, giving us the opportunity to bond while exploring different parts of Taiwan, including cities like Tainan, Taichung. These experiences allowed me to appreciate Taiwan's culture, beauty, and nature beyond the workplace. Overall, I grew both professionally and personally, gaining valuable work experience while becoming more confident and independent. I would highly recommend AIP to anyone looking for an overseas internship. The team's support and genuine care made this a truly memorable and rewarding experience.

Great Experience!
July 16, 2026by: Pip Hui Pong - SingaporeMy 10-week internship in Taiwan through the Asia Internship Program (AIP) was a truly rewarding and eye-opening experience. The program was well organized, and the AIP team was always responsive and supportive throughout the entire journey, from the application process to settling into Taiwan and during the internship itself. The internship gave me valuable exposure to a real working environment, allowing me to apply what I learned in university while developing new technical and professional skills. Beyond work, living in Taiwan helped me experience a different culture, improve my independence, and meet amazing people from around the world. The balance between professional growth and cultural immersion made this experience especially meaningful. I am grateful for the opportunity and would highly recommend the Asia Internship Program to students looking to gain international work experience, broaden their perspectives, and challenge themselves both personally and professionally.
A Memorable Summer in Taiwan
July 16, 2026by: Josh Cua - SingaporeMy past 10 weeks in Taiwan has been one for the books! I’m very grateful for the support from AIP, from the company placement to the pre-departure process. I appreciate the team (Nisha and Roro) for being responsive to my queries. It’s my first time being immersed in a Chinese-speaking workplace. Despite language challenges, I enjoyed interacting with the colleagues in my company. It is through conversations with the local Taiwanese where I got to immerse myself in their culture. If you’re keen to work overseas and gain professional experience (and hone your foreign language ability), I highly recommend applying to AIP. Just give it a shot!
Amazing Summer 2025 in Amsterdam!
January 17, 2026by: Lily Xu - United StatesI am so incredibly grateful for the amazing experience I had abroad last summer in Amsterdam! Through Sage Corps I was able to work as a data analysis intern for a startup in the area, where I not only gained professional experience, but got to work on a project in machine learning for the first time, which was something I was interested in. The highlight of my summer was definitely all of the wonderful friends I made that were in my program. I had so much fun being able to connect with so many great people, and it taught me the value of saying yes to everything. We traveled and explored together, and even though I was working a 40-hour week, I definitely felt like I was able to create those meaningful relationships and try out so many new things. Wouldn't trade the experience for anything. I really had a fantastic time and would definitely encourage anyone on the edge of studying abroad to go for it, even if outside your comfort zone. I loved Amsterdam and the Netherlands because everyone was so kind and the environment was so laid back, but being able to travel to other parts of Europe was thrilling and new for me, and I really enjoyed being able to take in different cultures. Highly recommend!

5 weeks discovering the real Taiwan
January 10, 2026by: Zhi Jun Quek - SingaporeMy five-week internship in Taiwan was honestly an experience I’ll never forget. Not only did I learn a lot through hands-on work and real-world experience, but I also got to see sides of Taiwan that I definitely wouldn’t have discovered as a tourist. From everyday work culture to local routines and conversations, the internship gave me a behind-the-scenes look at life in Taiwan that made the experience feel truly special. I met so many inspiring people along the way (taiwan people are genuinely so friendly and warm) and had plenty of opportunities to network, learn from professionals, and build meaningful connections that I know will be valuable in the future. On top of all that, I had a lot of fun — whether it was exploring the city after work, trying new food, going to concerts, exploring might clubs. Overall, this internship was the perfect mix of learning, growth, and enjoyment, and it left me with great memories, new skills, and a much deeper appreciation for Taiwan
