Fellowships at Mount Holyoke is delighted to highlight this opportunity to learn more about the Luce Scholars Program.

"The Henry Luce Foundation invites you to join us in a conversation with Luce Scholars Program staff and alumni to hear about this unique fellowship program.

The Luce Scholars Program is a nationally competitive fellowship that aims to develop compassionate leaders as they forge stronger relationships across geographic borders by creating opportunities for young Americans to deepen their ties and understanding of the countries, cultures, and people of Asia.

Open to U.S. citizens and permanent residents, the Luce Scholars Program provides stipends, language training, and individualized professional placement in Asia for 18 Luce Scholars each year. We welcome applications from college seniors, graduate students, and young professionals in a variety of fields, 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.

Today, there are more than 775 Luce Scholars alumni living around the world, making invaluable contributions as global leaders and citizens, and building lifelong professional relationships that began with this program. Their experiences demonstrate that there is no better way to build mutual understanding and a sense of common purpose than through sustained, immersive, in-person engagement with others.
