The Yuen Research Grants provide 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, with new projects funded quarterly. The purpose of the grants is to spark academic engagement between the University of Chicago and partners in the region and to 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, aims 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.
