Work Permits for International Faculty Members

International faculty members are required to submit a scanned copy of their highest diploma and passport information page (passport must be valid) and an electronic copy of their headshot to the responsible person of their respective department so that the University can request a work permit from the Ministry of Education for such them. If approved, the hiring academic unit must assist the faculty member with securing a visa and alien residence certificate. Please note that visa requirements may vary for individuals of different nationalities, and it is recommended that each unit’s responsible person first consult with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs as to whether a prospective faculty member is eligible for a visa. This applies to the appointment of all international full-/part-time faculty members, project faculty members, Ministry of Education Yushan Scholars, and visiting personnel.
