Tuition costs are higher for international students and vary by subject, with medical and MBA programs among the most expensive. Some university- and government-funded scholarships are available for foreign students, as is student housing.The university has 11 colleges: bioresources and agriculture, electrical engineering and computer science, engineering, law, liberal arts, life science, management, medicine, public health, social sciences and science. The institution's academic calendar is semester-based, and the primary language of instruction is Mandarin, although a number of English-taught courses are available. The university is affiliated with several medical institutions and research centers, including the National Taiwan University Hospital, the NTU Cancer Center and the Drug Research Center. Some of the university's other research centers include the International Center of Excellence in Intelligent Robotics and Automation Research, the Population and Gender Studies Center and the Leung Center for Cosmology and Particle Astrophysics. National Taiwan University has exchange agreements with many universities around the world, such as the University of Melbourne in Australia, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin in Germany and Tulane University in the U.S.
