Yenching Academy Fellowship Program

The Yenching Academy of Peking University offers an interdisciplinary master's program in China Studies, designed to build bridges between China and the rest of the world. This initiative brings together young people who have demonstrated a talent for leadership and innovation, immersing them in an intensive learning environment where they can explore China and its role in the world—past, present, and future. The Academy's goal is to shape new generations of global citizens with a nuanced understanding of China. The Yenching Academy provides full fellowships to its Scholars, offering a wide array of interdisciplinary courses on China within broadly defined fields of the humanities and social sciences. Working closely with their academic mentors, Yenching Scholars create their own study paths by choosing courses from six research areas. Scholars participate in a variety of extracurricular activities and field studies organized by the Yenching Academy. Studying at the Academy is an exceptional opportunity to take part in intercultural exchanges and interdisciplinary learning, developing both personally and professionally.
