The Work-Study Experience Of Indigenous Undergraduates In Taiwan

Abstract

Due to the large number of universities in Taiwan and the increased availability of scholarships for disadvantaged students, the number of college students from indigenous families has been on the rise in recent years. However, many indigenous students still find it necessary to work part-time. In this study, indigenous students were interviewed to determine how they choose part-time jobs and the influence such work has on their grades, health, and careers. Based on the results, suggestions are provided for improving the work-study experience of indigenous students.
