The University of Minnesota is one of seventy-five colleges and
universities invited by the Henry Luce Foundation in New York to submit
up to three nominations for the Luce Scholars Program. Through this
unique program, young Americans with demonstrated leadership are given
the opportunity to spend a year in Asia as professional apprentices
under the guidance of leading Asian professionals. The distinguishing
feature of the program is that it is directed toward students, junior
faculty, or recent alumni in any field except Asian Studies, who have
not spent more than twelve weeks in Asia.
