The Anne H. Scott Memorial Undergraduate Scholarship in Chinese Studies is funded through the Anne H. Scott Endowment in Chinese Studies at IEAS, a gift of Hugh A. Scott in memory of his late wife, Anne H. Scott (née Anne Hanrahan), and her dedication to Chinese historical studies. The scholarship supports an undergraduate student emphasizing Chinese studies at UC Berkeley. It is intended to assist students who have studied the Chinese language and who wish to use their language training to study Chinese history or culture, or to translate historical texts. One award of $2,500 is available.
The Julia Chang Bloch Fellowship in East Asian Studies is funded through the F.Y. Chang Foundation, endowed by Stuart and Julia Chang Bloch. The Fellowship supports UC Berkeley undergraduate students in the completion of a research project dedicated to the study of strategic, political, economic and/or socio-cultural issues in one or more East Asian countries/territories (including China, Japan, South Korea, North Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong SAR, Macao SAR, and Mongolia). Two fellowships of $2,000 are available in 2025.
The IEAS Undergraduate Research Award program supports juniors and sophomores who are interested in pursuing research opportunities related to East Asia and Southeast Asia with a particular focus on Humanities and Social Science, such as in preparation for a senior thesis or other major capstone project. Cross-national and interdisciplinary projects are strongly encouraged. Up to eight awards will be awarded in 2025 on a competitive basis.
