U.S.-China Student Fellows Program Is Accepting Applications for the 2019-2020 Cohort

Inaugurated in 2016, the U.S.-China Student Fellows Program aims to promote student-to-student dialogue among U.S. and Chinese university students around critical global issues. The program features a cohort of ten to twelve young leaders, selected from top U.S. and Chinese colleges and universities. Over the course of an academic year, fellows participate in dialogue through in-person meetings, a web-based platform, and networking opportunities.

Fellows will receive a $2,500 stipend and travel and accommodations to attend the Washington, D.C. and Beijing meetings, where they will have opportunities to meet with leading scholars, senior officials and business leaders. Past meetings include visits and briefings at the White House, Department of State, Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs as well as embassies and influential think tanks in Washington and Beijing. Fellows are expected to actively participate and contribute to the intellectual exchange within the group and with outside policy stakeholders. They are also required to provide at least four short essays/blogs for publication on the Initiative’s website between September 2019 and July 2020.
