National Technology Expertise Programs Application Criteria

1-National Technology Expertise Programs Application Criteria

Applications for the National Technology Expertise Programs, which will be conducted in three areas—Artificial Intelligence, Autonomous Driving Technologies, and Chip Design—during the 2025-2026 Academic Year, will be evaluated according to the following criteria.
• Applicants must be third- or fourth-year undergraduate students.
• Applicants must have a minimum weighted GPA of 2.50 (out of 4.00).
• Since applicants can only apply to one of the three Specialization Programs during the application phase, if an applicant is found to have applied to more than one program, the first application submitted in terms of date and time will be considered.
• Applicants must be enrolled in one of the undergraduate programs listed below, according to the relevant Specialization Program.
