Description
Summary:Purpose: This study explores the experiences of Indonesian students studying while working at Taiwanese public universities.   Design/methodology/approach: Through a phenomenological research approach that utilizes face-to-face interview techniques, the personal experiences of 15 Indonesian students were recorded. As a student who conducts lecture activities while working, apart from having assignments from the place of study, students also have to face problems at work.   Findings: The findings from this study indicate that the main reasons from within and from outside students in carrying out learning and work activities are financial problems. Furthermore, when students devote less time to work, this causes students to divert their attention a little from the main task of learning.   Research, Practical & Social implications: From these study and work activities, students get a positive impact in the form of experience and a negative impact in the form of fatigue and problems with their time.
