Luce Scholarship Information Session
Do you want to get experience living and working in Asia? Have you spent 18 weeks or less in Asia since you graduated from high school? If so, you should apply to the Luce Scholars Program!
Eligibility Seniors, graduate & professional students, and young professionals, who are U.S. citizens or permanent residents who 1) are under the age of 32 or 2) if older than 32 have received their bachelor's degree within the past three years, are eligible to apply.
The Luce is a one-year internship in your field after graduation in East Asia, South Asia, or Southeast-Asia. The Luce Scholars Program provides leadership training, stipends, language training, and individualized professional placement in Asia for up to 18 Luce Scholars each year. The Program welcomes applications from college seniors, graduate students, and young professionals in any field, with a range of backgrounds and experiences, who have had limited exposure to Asia. This transformational program is experiential rather than academic and is not for those seeking research funding.
