The Yuen Research Grants provided awards of up to $100,000 USD to support faculty research in Hong Kong and the Greater Bay Area of mainland China for up to a year. The purpose of the grants was to spark academic engagement between the University of Chicago and partners in the region and increase the local impact of UChicago research and faculty experts in both academic and public settings.
This program, generously funded by Francis Yuen (AB’75) and Rose Yuen and administered by UChicago Global, aimed to highlight and strengthen the rich tradition of academic collaboration between the University of Chicago and partners in Hong Kong and the Greater Bay Area of mainland China.
