A person who meets the eligibility requirements for a National Chair Professorship set out in Paragraph 1 of the preceding article shall be recommended to the Ministry by their university after their university has conducted a substantive review and their recommendation has been approved by the university-level Teacher Evaluation Committee. Each university may recommend up to four people in each disciplinary category, and the selections shall be made by the Ministry.A recommendation for a person who meets the eligibility requirements for a National Chair Professorship set out in Subparagraph 1 or 2 of Paragraph 1 of the preceding article, which has been co-signed by three people in the same disciplinary category as the person recommended but not including that person, each of whom is either an Academician of Academia Sinica or a recipient of a National Chair Professorship, shall be submitted to the Ministry by their university, together with the university’s other recommendations, after the person’s recommendation has been submitted to and approved by the university-level Teacher Evaluation Committee. The number of recommendations of this nature is not counted toward the quotas stipulated in the provisions of the preceding paragraph. However, the maximum number of additional recommendations of this nature permitted for each disciplinary category is the same as the maximum number for each disciplinary category in those quotas.The Ministry’s procedures to select National Chair Professors are as follows:1.A separate Review Board will be set up for each of five disciplinary categories, based on different academic fields: the Humanities and Arts; Social Sciences; Mathematics and Natural Sciences; Biology and Medical and Agricultural Science; and Engineering and Applied Science. From nine to eleven prestigious scholars and experts shall be appointed to be the members of each Review Board. The Standing Committee of the Ministry of Education’s Academic Review Committee shall designate the convener of each Review Board.2.Each Review Board shall conduct its first review after undertaking a detailed evaluation of the academic research and teaching performance of each of the recommended candidates and fully discussing each one.3.Each Review Board shall forward all the material pertaining to each candidate who has passed the first review that was provided by the person who recommended the candidate to three or four scholars or experts for further evaluation, after which it will conduct its second review. Each Review Board will then give its recommendations of candidates for a National Chair Professorship to the Standing Committee.4.The Standing Committee shall review and discuss the results of each evaluation of each of the recommended candidates referred to in the preceding subparagraph and then draw up and submit a list of candidates for a National Chair Professorship to a meeting of all members of the Academic Review Committee to discuss and deliberate over.5.A meeting that shall be attended by at least half of the members of the Academic Review Committee shall vote on the list of candidates that resulted from the deliberations of the meeting of all members of the Academic Review Committee and the National Chair Professors will be selected based on the number of votes received by each of those candidates in accordance with one of the following provisions:(1)At least two thirds of the members present give their approval; or(2)More than half of the members present give their approval, and at least half of the members who are in the same disciplinary category as the candidate recommended for a National Chair Professorship are present, and at least two thirds of those members give their approval.6. If any of the annual quota of National Chair Professorships remain unawarded after this selection procedure, the members present at the meeting of the Academic Review Committee attended by at least half of its members may continue and cast one further ballot for each National Chair Professorship still unawarded if more than half of the members present at the meeting agree to do so. If any additional ballot still fails to result in any candidate receiving the required number of votes stipulated in the preceding subparagraph, that National Chair Professorship shall remain unawarded .
