Description
As one of the highlights of U.S.-China people-to-people exchange, under the framework of Young Envoys Scholarship (YES) , this fellowship was launched to inspire and build connections between the next generation of global leaders in the U.S. and China. Hosted by China Education Association for International Exchange (CEAIE), college students from the U.S. will be selected and paired with Chinese students to carryout social research activities in China over a period of two weeks. The fellowship is conducted in English. The Zhi-Xing China: U.S.-China University Student Leaders Academy derived from the Chinese philosophy Zhi and Xing, of which literal translations in English are knowledge and action. Thus, within the myriad of research activities, indoor lectures, seminars and dialogue will go hand in hand with field visits in different cities in China. Through the two-fold approach, students are able to observe the recent social, economic, and technological development of China while revisiting the thousand-year history of China and experiencing its cultures.
