The Luce Scholars Program is a highly competitive fellowship program that provides funding and professional development opportunities for young Americans to live and work in Asia for one year. The program is designed to enhance the understanding of Asia among future leaders in the United States and to promote cultural exchange and mutual understanding between the U.S. and Asia.
The Luce Scholars Program is open to college seniors, graduate students, and young professionals under the age of 30 who have limited exposure to Asia and who possess a record of high achievement, outstanding leadership ability, and an interest in Asia. The program provides stipends, language training, and individualized professional placement in one of 18 countries across Asia, including China, Japan, Korea, and Vietnam.
