Yenching Academy of Peking University Fellowship

Description

The Yenching Academy offers a master’s program in Chinese studies for English speakers with varying levels of Chinese language competency. The program emphasizes the interdisciplinary approach and values thinking about China; past, present, and future – from both Chinese and international perspectives. It also aims to push the study of China beyond the boundaries of traditionally defined humanities and social science disciplines and is designed to incorporate the experiences and intellectual training of students from diverse backgrounds.

The Yenching Academy annually enrolls approximately 120 new students from both the Chinese Mainland and abroad, to study, live, and learn together. International students comprise roughly 80% of the student body. To all those applicants, the academy provides a generous fellowship covering the tuition fees and other expenses.
