Local know-how
What to know before you go
Engineering and manufacturing in Taiwan
Taiwan's advanced manufacturing is organized by region. Hsinchu Science Park in the north is centered on semiconductors and related electronics. The Central Taiwan Science Park near Taichung is known for precision machinery, and the Southern Taiwan Science Park focuses on areas such as medical devices and green energy, according to AmCham Taiwan. Science parks like these bring manufacturers, suppliers and research institutes close together.
So there is more to Taiwan than chips. Machinery, optics, sensors and automation are all well established too. Our interns in Taiwan work in Taipei. Depending on your host, you might work on electronics, mechanical design or production processes, so tell us on your free call which you lean toward, and we'll look for the closest match.
