The Ministry of Science & Technology (MOST) is Taiwan’s agency for driving forward scientific and technological innovation, a major pillar of the country’s plans for economic growth. In the age of the knowledge-based economy, science and technology has become a key driver of growth and national progress for Taiwan.
As such, in March 2014, the National Science Council (NSC), which was originally established in February 1959, was reorganised into the Ministry of Science & Technology (MOST) with a new structure designed to strengthen the integration of academic research and industrial development.
