能夠獲得中技社的研究獎學金,對我而言是一件非常開心的事情,也讓我更有信心。從大學開始,我連同碩士班和博士班,都是在師大就讀,太長的時間待在同一所學校,讓我不知道自己的實力到底在哪裡,只知道要埋頭於實驗研究。中技社頒發研究獎學金給我,對於我這幾年的表現是一種肯定,也讓我更有信心在研究這條路上繼續走下去。

I began my journey at Taipei Tech, Taiwan as a doctoral student in 2015. Initially, I was really confused regarding my research topic. To be very honest, I didn’t know what I was good at, and I wasn’t confident in myself or my abilities. But I was excited to learn, and I was ready for the adventure. During this tenure, I started my research career on membrane technology under the guidance of Prof. Shiao-Shing Chen.

It was a few years ago when I applied for “2017 CTCI Excellent Research Award” through the Institute of Environmental Engineering and Management which comes under College of Engineering, NTUT. I remember the day when I was notified via email. I was on the way to my dorm and I decided to check my email. I opened it up and saw I was selected for CTCI Excellent Research Award. I was elated. After receiving that award, I was motivated to ace my research and finish my doctoral degree with good publications.

That motivation, that inspiration didn’t leave me when I completed my doctoral degree. It stayed with me for years. And I believe, because of this award I have been selected as Post-Doctoral Research Associate in one of the best research labs in Korea. As I said, I started here as a confused doctoral student, but I am leaving Taipei Tech as someone who is confident. I will never lose that excitement to learn. I love Taipei Tech. Even, I would like to thank CTCI for transforming my life.

我擅長奈米材料合成、鑑定及臨場光譜分析,在奈米材料與能源相關研究領域已著墨多年,並以統計軟體結合實驗設計,有效分析實驗系統,從基礎科學走到實質產品製程與應用,同時,自己具有跨院系的專業設計經驗與背景,讓自己在與同儕競爭時具備多一份經驗與優勢。選擇創業,除了精進自己發現癥結、分析現象、解決問題及溝通協調的能力,更能多方應用自己跨領域所學,亦能培養自己獨特的工作歷程與影響力。

當年,很榮幸能夠獲得中技社所有評審委員的青睞,獲此殊榮,無疑是成長過程中莫大的鼓勵與肯定,在跨領域的研究與創業團隊合作中,讓我能以更寬闊的思維去發掘研究可能性。感謝所有在研究路途中幫助過我的同儕及學弟妹,投身創業除了需要熱忱之外,更需要家人的支持,感恩父母一直以來的用心養育!多年來受國家栽培,希望將來有機會能貢獻一己之力,回饋國家與社會。

It is truly an honor to be recognized by CTCI Foundation for the work in research and development of science and technology in Taiwan. This award has a great personal meaning for me and it has really helped me throughout my career. I express my gratitude to CTCI Foundation for running such an excellent and competitive scholarship for foreign students in this beautiful country.

I would like to give my deepest thanks to my advisor, Prof. Liang-Chia Chen, of the Department of Mechanical Engineering, National Taiwan University and Graduate Institute of Automation Technology, National Taipei University of Technology. His motivation, enthusiasm, guidance and vast knowledge throughout the study years have produced a tremendous transformation in both my research and personal character. I would like to express my deepest thanks to my parents, Le Manh Ha and Nguyen Thi Quyet, my whole family for their constant support and understanding in all that I have done. Without their love, inspiration, encouragement, and sacrifice, I would never have achieved my lifelong dream and this award.

印象還很深刻,在頒獎典禮那天,聽到中技社獎學金的創立原因,是為了讓莘莘學子有機會繼續靠近更高的學術殿堂,能不用為了籌學費而放棄求學機會,對我來說特別有感觸。我在2018年申請了科技部千里馬計畫,2019年有幸到英國倫敦交換學生。倫敦的生活費是眾所皆知的高,除了科技部給予的補助之外,特別感謝中技社頒發的獎助學金,讓我在這座高消費的城市可以不用擔心經費問題。

決定念博班之後,其實從來沒有預想到這一切──沒想過可以拿到高額補助的獎學金、沒想過會出國交換,這一切真的很感謝過去老師家人對我的支持,也很感謝自己過去沒有遇到挫折就輕易放棄。目前我持續在倫敦大學學習新的事物,體驗不同文化與生活,雖然還不知道下階段會在哪裡,但會繼續向前邁進!

CTCI Foundation brought new colors into my research by providing financial support as well as support. I got good stability to continue my doctoral degree and successfully completed in 2018. Here I would like to mention one important thing that being a single parent child I always had a fear with in heart about abroad studies but if a person like me got this scholarship, it will not only changes financial structure but also provides enormous support and boost for further career developments. In this perspective I am fortunate to be in the list of scholarship and I made my parents proud more than anything else. Still I am working hard and pushing my limits in my field to be a better person. Its dream to be selected for CTCI Foundation even after this humongous competition.

CTCI Foundation dealing this more efficient way in motivating researchers towards successful opportunities and also giving self-positivity for surviving in this competition world respectively. Still I am in research filed-material chemistry to explore more by the given motivation from CTCI Foundation exclusively. Of course it’s one of the prestigious award to be received and also to be noted by everyone so working hard is always nearby way to get scholarship. That moment of receiving scholarship will be the most beautiful and inspiring moment by making my parents proud.

我在2017年12月獲得獎學金,當時的獲獎感言提到:這份榮耀是我在這個領域的起跑點,並期許自己在科學進展上,能獲得小小的突破。在兩年後的今天,我慶幸我仍然在這個領域持續前進,也仍然還保有當初的研究熱忱,雖然還沒獲得真正的突破,但回頭看,卻也比當初的自己進步不少,這也算是一種自我突破吧。努力到現在,幸運獲得出國前往多倫多大學國際知名團隊Sargent實驗室進行研究,眼界及格局都比當年的自己開闊不少,期許自己能在這麼好的平台中,努力學習、持續加油,紮實地做好研究,莫忘當初被肯定的感動與榮耀,做出對世界有所幫助的研究成果,共勉之

It is just two years since I have received the CTCI scholarship, but my life turned to another chapter. I received the CTCI scholarship when I was in the critical period of my Ph.D. program, which was "speed-up" period in third year. Receiving the CTCI scholarship helped me to not be worry about living expenses and could focus totally on researches.

As the results, I graduated on time in September 2018 after four years. Therefore, I really appreciate CTCI Foundation for this big help. Now, I am a postdoctoral fellow at NCTU, start to build up my research career and pursue my dream of being professor. Thanks again for what CTCI Foundation has done and for how the CTCI scholarship supports some young researchers like me to pursue our dream in Taiwan.

I indeed count myself lucky to receive this prestigious scholarship. I received this scholarship in my final year of doctoral study. This scholarship had a great impact on my life. This scholarship greatly reduced financial burden allowing me to focus more onto research. I become more confident and felt very positive towards my research without any additional pressure. Attending International and domestic conference become easier. I could support myself for the travel to attend and present my research at global platforms. This allowed me to interact with many great scholars and learn more about my research. I successfully finished my Ph.D. last year.

Addition of CTCI Foundation Scholarship gave a boost to my curriculum vitae. In September-2018, I joined as Post-doctoral researcher at Hierarchical Green-Energy Materials Research Center (Hi-GEM), Department of Materials Science and Engineering, National Cheng Kung University. Currently, I am promoted to Assistant Researcher at Hi-GEM. I would like to thanks CTCI Foundation for helping students to excel in their study without having any financial burden.

My name is Nguyen Van Thuong from Vietnam. I am a third year PhD candidate in Structurers and Materials Groups of Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics, National Cheng Kung University. I was awarded with the CTCI Foundation Scholarship for Oversea Graduate Students in Taiwan in 2017 when I was the first year PhD student. That year was the rough time for me since I had to be disturbed by a lot of things such as PhD qualification exam, the homework of PhD courses, life expenses… Receiving this scholarship is valuable for me.

This scholarship reduced my financial concerns and then further impacted my time for studying and learning. I could spend more time on studies and researches. After receiving this scholarship, I had one more SCI paper and two more international conferences. As a result, my purpose of pursuing a PhD degree is step by step closer. Awarded with this reputation scholarship also open other opportunities. It is easier to apply for other scholarships and even for applying the future jobs. Besides that, this scholarship allowed me more financial flexibility. I spent a part of this scholarship to cover my wedding and to settle down my life after that.

Additionally, this scholarship is motivation and opportunity for students studying in Taiwan. For some foreign students considering Taiwan as destination of their study, they will see that Taiwan has not only very good education environment but also the care of CTCI foundation. In future, I think more and more foreign students will come Taiwan to study.
