Contest Guidelines

In the past 5 years, the technology thesis awards were collocated with the international scientific and technology conferences. The technology thesis awards went to many potential scholars and students who distributed themselves into the field of technological researches. In 2013, the International Applied Science and Precision Engineering and Conference 2013 (ASPEC2013) collocated with the Chiuan-Yan technology thesis awards, also held in Sun Moon Lake, Nantou, Taiwan, was an outstanding success.
